AIFX teams up with Bucks university

Published on

AIFX, the subscription-based FOREX trading training provider, has unveiled a formal strategic partnership with Buckinghamshire New University, based in High Wycombe.

The two organisations will now work together on a series of projects including courses on financial markets which will be offered via Bucks New University to students. AIFX will seek to gain full accreditation for its courses from the University.

Students opting for the FOREX course will be fully mentored by AIFX’s team of traders and they will trade with the live traders as they place their trades.

Currently, AIFX offers a subscriber-based FOREX trading training programme, where over a 12-month period new traders follow the AIFX FOREX training course with experts offering a guide through the various currency markets using charts, software and trend. Trades are placed via Archangel’s online trading platform.

The Bucks New University FOREX course is based on the fundamentals of AIFX’s regular programme and will include modules on: position/trend trading day trading technical indicators, risk management, and much more.

Mark Bowler, head of AIFX, said: “We are delighted to announce this formal strategic partnership with Bucks New University and we are already working on a series of projects and courses which will be put forward for full accreditation. This is the first such partnership of its kind and in developing this relationship we are aiming to take FOREX trading into the mainstream educational arena and develop a range of qualifications for students to attain. Our core course will be based on our already successful private training programme and we are currently in the process of designing and writing the relevant modules for the University offering. This is just the start in a series of planned ventures between the two organisations and we look forward to working with the team at Bucks New University to develop a series of exciting new propositions.””
