Corporate Finance Institute Launches Innovative e-Learning Courses to Help Anyone Learn Finance

NEW YORK - Feb. 7, 2016 - PRLog -- Corporate Finance Institute (CFI), a leading provider of online finance courses, today announced a new strategic partnership with MDA Training, a premier Wall Street training firm, to provide world class finance eLearning.  The partnership will offer students and professional access to the same training courses used at many of Wall Street’s top investment banks, on any device, at any time.

Launched in 2015, CFI seeks to revolutionize the way people learn finance by offering Wall Street quality courses, at a fraction of the cost.  CFI will level the playing field by empowering anyone to learn finance, in a way that previously only available to a limited group.

“We are opening the world of Wall Street financial training to anyone, anywhere, at a very low price,” said Tim Vipond of Mathers Pacific Capital, a founding investor in CFI.  “I was amazed during my time as an investment banking analyst at the quality of training provided at the banks.  I personally attended three different bank sponsored training programs over my career, including MDA’s, and I partnered with them because I know they’re the best.”

CFI believes that leveraging technology and partnering with an industry leader like MDA will bridge the moat that exists around this type of practical finance education.  The company offers engaging video-based courses that use a combination of powerful instruction, interactive animation, and live feedback to simulate in-person teaching.

“We are thrilled about this new partnership and our ability to lead the way in the global Smart Education and eLearning revolution,” said [Scott/Lisa] Managing Director at MDA Training.  “For 25 years we have provided customized training programs to corporate clients and now is perfect time to start offing eLearning courses for anyone, anywhere.”

According to a report published by Research and Markets the Smart Education and Learning market will grow at 24% annually from $105 billion in 2015 to $447 billion in 2020.
