Are you interested in working in the finance industry once you complete your degree at York University? Set yourself apart from the crowd by completing the Bloomberg Market Concepts (BMC) training program at the Bronfman Business Library!

By taking the BMC, you can take your Bloomberg skills to the professional level that employers are looking for and give yourself a leg up when you're interviewing for jobs in the finance market.

Now why would you want to hone your Bloomberg skills?

Consider this - Bloomberg terminals are an industry standard for financial professionals, as the terminal is a 24-hour, global financial services system that provides transparent and reliable financial, economic and government information on market sectors like equities, fixed income, bonds, and commodities. Once you learn how to use a Bloomberg terminal you can access publicly-traded company financials, market data spanning more than 20 years, current news, and much more! More than 320,000 of the world’s leading players in the global financial and business community rely on Bloomberg terminals when performing their day-to-day tasks.
