    Office Worker 30s Female

  • I was able to gain basic knowledge of finance in two days. I learned how to think about the value of time.

  • The professor was very professional and very thorough.

    Office Worker 30s Female

  • It was interesting to hear about the Murakami Fund, Hikari Tsushin, and the relationship between finance and other fields. Finance has an image of mathematics, and I tended to think of it as "something far removed from real life," but I feel as if I have grown a little closer to it. I would like to renew my interest in searching for treasured companies and keeping my antennae open for information on internal finance indicators.

    Office Worker 30s Male

  • I felt that the program was designed to allow students to learn in depth and narrowly with a clear division of priorities among finance theories. I had thought that finance subjects were difficult to understand their positioning, value, and use because there are so many theories to be studied, and each theory has to be crammed into a small amount of time.

    Engineering 30s Male

  • I now understand that the stock market is not a simple thing to look at. The opinions of the professor and other members were also helpful, and it was good to realize that it is important to take a multifaceted view of these indicators, rather than just taking them for granted. Thank you very much.

  • The lecturers provided easy-to-understand instructions on points that beginners tend to misunderstand or find difficult to understand just by reading the textbook, and encouraged the students to learn by doing things with their own hands. Thank you very much.

    Office Worker 30s Female

  • The emphasis was placed on explanations and lectures, and the course was designed so that students would not end up with an unbalanced understanding of basic knowledge from self-study. I think it is ideal for beginners in terms of both speed and content.

    Office Worker 50s Male

  • I learned a lot because it was very difficult to obtain such in-depth knowledge in MBA and practical business.
