Studying the SIE with expert instructors handling the Kansas City SIE course with 51Թ can have a positive impact on your review. The SIE or Securities Industry Essentials was created by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). Many aspiring candidates from working professionals to students from the University of Missouri - Kansas City and Rockhurst University put a lot of effort and time in preparing for the test since it can open doors to their future career in the securities industry. When you study with the guidance of experienced SIE instructors, you can gain insights into the test that you might not have if you're studying on your own.
What are some of the topics a Kansas City SIE prep course can cover?
In the Kansas City SIE class, you'll learn more about the content and format of the exam. There are 75 multiple-choice questions and you need to get 70% to pass the test.
There are four different sections in the SIE and each section makes up a specific percentage of the total score. The first section is Knowledge of Capital Markets with 12 questions that make up 16% of the exam. Topics tested in this section include market structure, economic factors, and offerings; regulatory entities, agencies, and market participants. The second section is Understanding Products and Their Risks. This has 33 questions and corresponds to 44% of the exam. Topics tested include investment risks, real estate investment trusts (REITs), municipal fund securities, and MSRB rules. The third section is Understanding Trading, Customer Accounts, which has 23 questions that make up 31% of the exam. You'll be tested on topics like anti-money laundering, customer accounts, compliance consideration, and NASD rules. The fourth section is Prohibited Activities and Overview of the Regulatory Framework, which contains 7 questions that make up 9% of the exam. Topics tested include SEC rules, employee conduct, continuing education, and reportable events.
Besides providing a comprehensive review of the content of the exam, your Kansas City SIE class instructor can also give you helpful tips on how to efficiently answer questions in each section and some study techniques that can help you in your review.
What are the advantages of enrolling in a Kansas City SIE course?
With the course, you can be confident that you're learning the key concepts that will be tested in the SIE and that you are learning from people who have studied the test for many years. It can be confusing to study for any type of standardized exam, and for the SIE, it's important that you do it right since it serves as your ticket to the next specific business qualification exam. With the help of SIE instructors who have solid experience in the securities industry and SIE test prep experience, you can have a more organized and comprehensive review that you might not be able to experience if you are reviewing on your own.
If you hit a wall and can't understand concepts in subjects like Direct Participation Programs (DPPs), Exchange-traded Products (ETPs), Customer Account Registrations, or any other topic under the SIE, you can also request to meet your instructor outside of class in a 1-on-1 meeting so you can ask for clarifications or work on problems with your instructor's supervision. This personalized attention provided to you through the course can be a great way to address your core difficulties faster.
Another advantage of the Kansas City SIE class is that it's offered online. This takes away the hassle of commuting to a review center or trying to rearrange your entire schedule just to fit a review class. You can finish your review entirely online in virtual classrooms. You also learn in a comfortable, convenient, and safe environment in your home. All you need is your internet connection and you can join the live class where you can see, hear, and talk to your instructor and classmates as if you were in a physical classroom. We are able to offer many course time options as well. Whether you want to study in the morning or have more time in the evening, or if you prefer to enroll in a weekend course, we can help you find a course time that fits your schedule.
