The London Academy of Trading (LAT) is an award-winning, dual-accredited provider of financial trading education and was the first academy in the UK to offer accredited and regulated qualifications in trading. We pride ourselves on providing practical and vocational training courses, developed to help individuals to invest or trade in financial markets, or for those looking to enhance their employment opportunities within financial markets.
We help our learners apply their knowledge in a real-world, real-time environment, understanding the fundamental and practical aspects of trading. Since our creation in 2010, we have focused on four specific pillars of knowledge to help students improve their skills and understanding: fundamental analysis, technical analysis, trading psychology and risk management.
About the Course:
If you’re looking to invest in the stock market for the longer term, this course will help you develop your understanding of equity markets & long-term equity investing. Today’s volatile markets present excellent opportunities for investors, and LAT can set you up with the necessary skills to excel in this environment.
Our specialist tutors will introduce you to the techniques of valuing stocks and will examine how you can profit from equity markets by identifying the factors which drive share prices.
Through a series of interactive online sessions over the course of two weeks, we’ll help you to improve your equity investing approach and equip you with the ability to make more informed investment decisions.
Flexible Study Options:
With students in mind we offer flexibility with all of our courses. We have developed our online delivery methods to enable continued interaction for all students, to enable you to extract the maximum benefit from whichever course you choose.

• You can pause and restart your course at any time.
• You can upgrade from one course to another by just paying the difference in course fees, not the whole fees for both courses
