Learn More About Our Finance Corporate Training

Recent developments in the field of financial technology affect every team that works in a corporate environment. The conjunction of finance and technology, FinTech, is a giant snowball careening down a hill, and progress and innovation are constant. Leading a team that’s literate in the new ways of financial technology is an absolute necessity if you don’t want the snowball to run all over you. To keep the members of your team up-to-date and cutting-edge, they’re going to need training. You have a variety of choices when it comes to how they’ll be trained, but you’ll find that, among all the available modalities, instruction with a live teacher will benefit your team the most. 

The Forward March of FinTech

FinTech dates back at least as far as the fourth millennium BCE, when the Ancient Mesopotamians invented written numeral symbols. The first calculating machine, the abacus, probably came into existence in the Fertile Crescent some thousand years later. Circa 3400 BCE, the Ancient Babylonians gave us ledgers; the first instance of that most useful of numerals, the zero, appeared in the middle of the second millennium BCE. Other cultures came up with their own counting systems, ledgers and numeric systems (the zero, surprisingly, took until the 11th century CE to reach European shores), but the one thing that characterized all these early developments was that progress was made slowly, with thousands of years interposing between major inventions: the abacus remained paramount until and after Pascal’s invention of a mechanical calculator in the seventeenth century CE, four thousand years later. Pascal’s device’s hegemony was comparatively short-lived: the Pascaline and its successors were replaced by the electronic calculator in the 1960s.

As for money, the Ancient Lydians invented it in the form of coins in the 7th century BCE, but it wasn’t until a thousand years later, during the 7th century CE, that paper currency was introduced in China. Not until the 17th century did it make its way to Europe, where it was followed in the 18th century by the creation of the check. The credit card followed in relatively short measure in the mid-20th century, and was followed only fifty years later by the electronic cash system invented by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakomoto known as Bitcoin. 

The point of these anecdotes is that technological progress in finance is far from a linear function. Rather, it develops almost exponentially, and, at this point in history, has gotten to moving so quickly that last week’s new marvel very quickly devolves into yesterday’s news. New cryptocurrencies spring up like mushrooms (admittedly not for the purpose originally intended, although that, too, is a form of progress), more and more conventional ledgers are being transferred to blockchain, and you can get a mortgage without ever having to talk to a human being. And that’s not taking into account the rapid-fire changes that artificial intelligence is wreaking in the financial world. 

Staying on top of all this change requires attention to each new trend and development as it explodes upon the scene. In the meantime, you have a business to run, which means you’re going to need help keeping your employees abreast of the changes happening around them. That’s where finance training on a corporate scale comes in.

What Types of Training are Available?

Just as there is more than one way to skin a cat, there are multiple ways of teaching dogs new tricks. In the workplace, recent trends appear to favor passive video trainings that put your team members in front of a computer screen and make them watch canned PowerPoint presentations interspersed with stock images of more or less good-looking happy workers and little, easy quizzes to make sure they were paying attention. While this type of training has an obvious fiscal advantage (you pay for it once, and you can have an infinite number of employees watch it an infinite number of times), it is also riddled with defects. 

The first of these is that there’s no guarantee that your team members, some of whom probably approach the training with an “oh no, not another one of these!” mindset, will pay any more attention than is necessary to pass the final quiz, let alone retain any information from the training. Moreover, if you purchased the training as-is, there’s nothing to say that it isn’t past its sell-by date when it’s delivered, making it more like a dull pair of safety scissors than a cutting-edge learning experience. Most critically, pre-packaged tutorials like these allow for no give-and-take between student and teacher. When people don’t understand something, they’re most likely going to let it go by and hope it’s not on the quiz. To learn something more complicated than a review of red flags for social engineering phishing and smishing attacks that’s barely different from the one they viewed six months ago, students need to be able to ask questions and get answers.

If you’re serious about upskilling your team in the ways of FinTech, you can do no better than to arrange for a live training that will bring a living, breathing, and real-time teacher to your team members who can interact with them and answer their questions as they arise. This can be done in one of three ways: bring the teacher to your team, bring your team to the teacher, or meet in the middle and deliver the class by live internet hook-up.

The Advantages of Online Delivery

While there’s nothing new about a live in-person teacher—the first documented schools date back as far as Ancient Egypt’s Middle Kingdom—live online training is of considerably more recent vintage. Using a network of interconnected computers as a teaching modality actually started as far back as the 1960s, but the idea didn’t really take off until the World Wide Web brought the internet to the general public in the very early 1990s. Online universities were quick to capitalize on the new technology, and proliferated within years of the advent of the World Wide Web. 

True, the reputation of online learning was tarnished somewhat during the pandemic years, when small children were forced to learn across the internet in what proved to be a failed experiment. Fault not the modality, however, but, rather, fault its application to a population ill-suited to sitting in relative quiet while concentrating on a computer screen. Online learning may not work for children, but it works admirably for adults, as the overwhelming majority of grown-ups who’ve taken an online course can attest.

Online classes are delivered via Zoom or another teleconferencing platform of your choosing, which means your team will most likely already be acquainted with the means by which the training reaches them. In an online class, the instructor operates just as in an in-person class, whiteboard and all, and, if someone needs to ask one of those all-important questions, a click of a mouse will raise a digital hand for the teacher to acknowledge. If need be, students can even share their screens with their instructors. The online class is a win-win or a best-of-both-worlds teaching solution.

What Makes Noble Desktop’s Training Unique?

Noble Desktop, a school that has been teaching tech and design subjects in-person and across the internet for over 20 years, offers top-quality online corporate training that is crafted to the client’s exact specifications. We can tailor the curriculum to all proficiency levels, from beginner to advanced; you, therefore, won’t end up spending money for a course that teaches your employees things they already know. We can even incorporate your own real-life datasets into the training. Your organization’s branding can also be worked into the training to create the ultimate personalized learning experience.

All of Noble’s classes are hands-on, meaning that students work at their keyboards and perform practical exercises together with the teacher rather than sitting and listening to a dry lecture. Learning by doing involves students: it keeps them awake, engaged, and intellectually challenged, and greatly increases retention levels.

Our greatest asset, however, is our corps of teachers. Selected from professionals with experience in the workforce as well as in the classroom, our instructors know how to get the best out of their students, which translates to results that will benefit you, the client. Good teaching requires a combination of positive energy, patience, and drive to make students succeed. Noble’s instructors have that and more, having cumulatively taught literally thousands of students over the 20 years since the school opened its doors. We have extensive experience teaching corporate classes as well as individuals seeking to ready themselves for the job market. Noble has a track record of success in both domains; you’ll discover that our instructors possess expertise, affability, accessibility, and just the right touch of humor to deliver their lessons effectively.

As well as online delivery, Noble Desktop’s courses can reach your team in three additional ways. If you are located in New York City, our Midtown Manhattan location is as easily accessible as anything in that part of the city. You are welcome to bring your team to us; fully equipped classrooms will await. And, if you’re not located in Manhattan but still want a live in-person training experience, we can dispatch a teacher to office locations in all major metropolitan centers.

In addition to team training, we offer private classes for individuals. All the benefits of the online group classes apply to this type of training, along with unequalled attention from the instructor. Although something of a luxury proposition, private classes are an extremely effective way to train people. These, too, can be offered across the internet or by sending a local teacher to your premises.

Last, but not least, is Noble’s voucher program. It allows you to arrange for any number of your team members to attend any of Noble’s regularly scheduled classes. The curriculum for these is cutting-edge, and is regularly updated to stay that way. This option is especially attractive if you have a smaller number of employees in need of upskilling. Attractive discounts are available for multiple purchases. Large voucher purchases also include a custom registration tracking portal so you can monitor who is taking what and when. Noble has new classes starting every week, so matching your team members’ schedules with Noble’s shouldn’t prove difficult.

What Will My Team Learn in a Finance Class?

Given that a curriculum can be designed to suit your exact specifications, what your team learns depends largely on you. Ask and you shall receive a class in anything from rudimentary corporate finance and financial accounting to advanced finance-oriented AI.

Noble’s standard curricula -- the ones taught during its scheduled classroom sessions -- can give you an idea of your options. This includes such classes as the Python for Data Science Bootcamp, the Python for Automation class, the Python Data Visualizations & Dashboards Bootcamp, and the Python for Machine Learning Bootcamp.

As you may infer from these class titles, much of FinTech is built on automated data science, especially using Python, a programming language that is currently much in vogue. The curricula focus on such themes as Python with Pandas using Jupyter Notebook, SQL for working with databases of financial information, and Python with its machine learning library, Scikit-learn, to create predictive models headline the topics on offer. The offerings also cover using Python for creating data visualizations and dashboards, an often neglected area in many finance professionals’ toolkits.

Students learn how to analyze financial statements using Python, how to create predictive models for budgeting, how to analyze and visualize financial data, how to create a discounted cash flow (DCF) model, and how to work with and automate such important financial functions as WACC, NPV and IRR. More advanced topics include learning to use Python’s financial libraries for such purposes as creating risk management models, VAR models, Monte Carlo simulations, and the all-important linear regression. On an even more cutting-edge track, Noble can adapt its class in using Python together with Flask (a Python framework used to craft AI applications) and Open AI to your organization’s exact needs.

If none of those is exactly what you’re looking for, the sky’s the limit for other topics you’d like to see your team learn. Blockchain, FinTech regulation, AI for predictive investment models, and the ins and outs of digital payments, including cryptocurrency, are all well within the Noble Desktop wheelhouse. Classes in these and many other FinTech topics can be arranged upon request.

What Kinds of Teams Stand to Learn the Most from Finance Training?

The primary target audience for finance and FinTech training is professionals working for financial organizations who lack the knowledge to do their jobs as effectively as they might. That includes banking, investment management, insurance and other financial services. FinTech and AI are rapidly revolutionizing these fields, and those who don’t know how to harness AI for whatever their jobs may be are in very real peril of being replaced by automation.

In addition to professionals working in the above financial fields, an education in the newer aspects of FinTech can benefit many other types of teams working across the industrial spectrum, as finance touches upon the work of just about anyone working in a corporate setting. Cybersecurity analysts can benefit from learning about the types of data their job is to protect, and how it moves around cyberspace. Data analysts can add to their knowledge of their specific field and develop a big-picture view of FinTech. Entrepreneurs and their teams may be geniuses at starting companies and making them profitable, but, in the future, having a good product and bringing it to market without understanding FinTech won’t be enough to remain competitive. Finally, compliance officers and legal teams should understand the workings of much of FinTech so that they can better understand what the regulations they work with mean in practice.

Noble Desktop’s financial classes therefore aren’t just for financial analysts. While there are jobs that probably don’t require much knowledge of FinTech trends (poet comes to mind), those are becoming fewer and further between, and, especially as Noble is able to tailor the curricula to any team’s precise needs, its financial training classes and seminars can benefit a huge swath of the corporate universe.
