What content will an Indianapolis SIE class cover?
The SIE is a test that is designed for prospective securities industries professionals. It is often viewed as the first step towards becoming a licensed securities professional. This is because individuals who pass this exam become qualified to take an additional qualification exam that is relevant to the specific part of the securities industry that they wish to start their career in. For example, after passing the SIE, you may go on to take the Series 7, Series 22, Series 52, or another qualification test.
The exam includes questions about concepts that are fundamental to working in the securities industry. This includes types of products and their risks, the structure of the securities market, prohibited practices, and regulatory agencies and their functions. The test is given in a multiple-choice format. Those who take it will have a maximum of one hour and forty-five minutes to answer the exam's 75 questions. In order to pass the test, you'll need to earn a score of at least 70 percent.
What are the benefits of taking an Indianapolis SIE course?
When you sign up for an Indianapolis SIE prep course, you'll get a chance to review the most important content on your upcoming exam. Courses take place on a powerful virtual learning platform that connects you directly with your instructor. You'll learn alongside a group of students who are preparing for the SIE just like you are. You'll be able to interact with both your instructor and the other students in your class throughout each of your course sessions. You can ask questions and listen to the questions that other students ask to gain a better understanding of the challenging topics that are tested on the SIE.
Courses are an excellent test preparation supplement because they replicate the traditional classroom learning experience in a more convenient online setting. You can take a course from the comfort of your own home or from anywhere else that you have an internet connection. Your instructor will teach you through a series of live lectures that cover concepts like equity securities, packaged products, types of markets, hedge funds, and much more. If you find that you're having trouble with one of the topics discussed in your course, you have the opportunity to request to work with your instructor individually. This makes it easy to keep pace with your class and to get the guidance that you need to feel confident on the day of your SIE.
Classes are also an inherently flexible learning opportunity that can fit into most individuals' schedules. We know that you already have a schedule that's full of work and school commitments. That's why we offer classes that take place at a variety of different times and days throughout the week. You can reach out to us directly to get help finding a class that you can fit into your schedule. This flexibility is key to what makes taking an SIE class such a unique academic opportunity.
