Want to start investing but don't know where to start? We’ll take you through the basics of buying shares and funds in a simple, step-by-step way. By the end, you'll be ready to build your own portfolio, with a (theoretical!) investing challenge to put your skills to the test and see if you can make a profit!

The course material is delivered via your online account on our website and we're on hand to answer any questions. We’re an Approved Activity Provider (AAP) for the skills section of The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award. When you finish, we’ll submit your personalised assessor’s report to your eDofE account and send you a certificate of achievement. What does the course cover? You’ll learn the key investing skills, including: • Understanding why share prices move and how investors make money. • Building a balanced portfolio to manage risk and reward. • Researching sectors and companies to decide the best option. • Choosing the right trading platform. • Completing a four-week (theoretical) investing challenge to see if you can make a profit!
