This instructor-led Executive Education course is presented by GetSmarter, an edX partner.

Amid falling consumer confidence in traditional portfolio management, South Africans are more willing than ever to take the leap into individual investing – with modern technology providing the tools to do so. However, in order to make informed, responsible investment decisions, it’s necessary to understand the investment environment.

The Investment Management online short course from the University of Cape Town (UCT) offers a practical guide to the world of financial investments. The course does not offer specific investment advice, but rather empowers you with the skills needed to intelligently manage an investment portfolio. Learn to choose the right company, fund, and investment strategy with confidence.

This course is ideal for anyone interested in investing, but who has no formal knowledge or qualification of the subject. It will also benefit professionals who have a background in finance, but little exposure to investing specifically. These professionals will gain a greater understanding of investment products, including offshore investments, and asset classes such as cryptocurrencies. Through the course, students will become equipped to consider investments from a global perspective, while working towards their own financial reward.
