An online and accredited graduate certificate program designed to prepare students
technically for a career in financial analytics.
PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS
Golden Gate University's nationally prominent graduate Technical Analysis program
was founded and developed by Professor Henry Pruden, one of the leading authorities on technical analysis education. The program is designed
to enhance the professional capabilities of traders, advisers, portfolio managers
and brokers in stocks, bonds, derivatives, and commodities. Our nationally known practice-experienced
faculty are uniquely advantaged to teach the latest in investor psychology and behavioral
finance as well as the classic techniques by R.D Wyckoff and by Edwards and Magee.
Reflecting the growing need for professional credentials, the program is aligned with
and helps prepare students for either the Chartered Market Technician (CMT) or the
Chartered Financial Technician (CFTe) examinations.
Online study: Golden Gate University developed the TMA certificate in an online format.
New students start with FI 352 online and will be offered the appropriate sequence
of classes going forward. Students typically complete the certificate in 18 months
or less.
