What will be covered in a Spokane SIE class?
Your class will go over the most important things that you need to know before sitting down to take your SIE exam. The SIE or Securities Industry Essentials Exam was created as a means of assessing whether or not a prospective professional is equipped to enter into the securities industry. With that in mind, the test focuses on the fundamental skills that professionals need to do well in their role. That means you'll be asked questions about things like prohibited practices, regulatory agencies, types of products, the risks associated with those products, and more.
Passing the SIE is important because this is often a requirement that you must satisfy before becoming eligible to take other qualification exams that you may need to pass to start the career you're interested in. For instance, you'll have to pass the Securities Industry Essentials exam before you can take the Series 7 or the Series 52, among other exams. Your SIE will feature 75 multiple-choice questions that you will have a total of one hour and forty-five minutes to answer. You'll need to get at least 70% of these questions correct in order to pass the exam and earn your SIE certification.
What are the benefits of taking a Spokane SIE class?
Classes are a unique way to get ready for the Securities Industry Essentials Exam. They give you the opportunity to review the most important topics that you need to know before taking your test with an expert on those topics. Classes take place on a virtual learning platform that connects you directly with your educator and a number of peers who are also preparing for the SIE. Your class will take place through a series of live lectures that replicate the traditional classroom learning environment in a more convenient online setting.
As you progress through your course sessions, you'll start to feel more and more prepared for your upcoming test. You'll be able to interact with both your instructor and your peers throughout this process. For instance, you can listen to the questions that your peers ask your instructor, which can help you think about the material that you're studying in new ways. Studies have shown that a collaborative learning environment like this one can help you get more out of your study sessions.
You'll even have the option of working with your educator in a one-on-one setting if you find that you're just not getting one of the topics that they've covered in class. This makes it easy to keep making progress towards your overall exam goals. You can work individually with your educator on things like offerings, equity securities, types of markets, packaged products, and much more.
