NEW YORK, July 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Landing the right position within the financial sector is the ultimate goal of any new graduate with an eye on Wall Street; with competition ever increasing, how does one gain the ultimate edge? The NYSF Advantage Program is providing hands on learning to future financial leaders both from leading MBA programs and those from nontraditional institutions; specialized firms are biting.
The NYSF Advantage Program initially launched its training program to offer a comprehensive training component not always realized within educational programs – real life situations. By offering training that includes hands on learning with industry leaders they have been able to bridge the gap of concept to reality. This engaged learning and enhanced skill set has helped past business school and even non-business school graduates land various positions within the finance industry.
Niche programs in finance exist within academic institutions, but reliable training by industry experts outside of academia could place students with an edge in the hiring pool. "Our program was designed to complement an undergraduate business or MBA program. However, even non-business students have been taken under consideration for finance jobs because of the advanced skills they are learning," states Paul Pignataro, Founder, New York School of Finance. "We offer students an opportunity to learn from leaders in the financial industry and gain direct hands on experience."
Financial industry leaders are looking for the right candidates and understanding the nuances of a particular field is becoming important for our future in finance. The NYSF Advantage program offers students intensive training in accounting, consolidated financial statements, mergers and acquisitions, leveraged buyouts, valuation and introduction into the analysis of financial markets. Through comprehensive training they can either jump right in where they are after graduation, add to their MBA, or transition from one field to another. NYSF is able to work with students where they are and help them get where they are going.
New York School of Finance offers short-term or semester long finance training programs on an ongoing basis. More information can be found at www.nyschooloffinance.com.
