OptiRisk Systems

        

Overview

OptiRisk Systems is one of the very few UK training providers offering weekend and evening FRM® exam preparation and tutorial sessions in London.

The course offered comprises the FRM Primer, which is a series of lectures and discussion sessions, and the FRM Clinic, a full-day revision in preparation for the FRM examination.

The FRM Primer is split into 6 full-day tutorial modules, each covering a different topic of the exam. These tutorials follow a flexible – but well defined – syllabus covering most of the FRM curriculum. The modules take place on Saturdays 09.30 – 17.00 in Uxbridge, West London, near Brunel University. In addition, Tuesday evenings from 18.00 – 21.00 may be used for practicing examination questions and, if necessary, further discussion of the topics covered in the Six Saturday sessions.

The FRM full-day Clinic is held one week before the FRM examination. This allows delegates to undertake a relatively realistic ‘mock’ FRM examination some time before the real one and thus avoid pre-exam stress.

Delegates receive an extensive reading list and pre-course materials. They also complete a pre-course ‘diagnostic’ to ensure they get the most out of the course.
