Now in it’s 14th year the newly named Quantitative Finance Conference in 2018 is heading to the beautiful city of Nice, France.

Quantitative finance is moving into a new era. Traditional quant skills are no longer adequate to deal with the latest challenges. The Machine Learning Institute Certificate offers candidates the chance to upgrade their skill set by combining academic rigour with practical industry insight.

The Certificate of Bank Treasury Risk Management (BTRM) is a once a year, eight-month, part-time course designed to empower individuals working in, or intending to work in, every aspect of bank risk management and asset-liability management (ALM). The BTRM is unique in being the only professional qualification for bank Treasury, Finance and Risk professionals that covers bank ALM, liquidity risk management, hedge accounting and operational risk. The course can be taken in two flexible study options, as well as the full course. The BTRM Certificate can be started at any time during the cohort cycle with our comprehensive online education system.

WBS Training are delighted to announce our new conference for 2018: Women in Quantitative Finance Conference (WQF). This conference will showcase the female talent within the existing quants community, discuss opportunities for the next generation and the current challenges for women in quantitative finance. Please note this is not a female only conference. 

Due to a complete sell out in March 2018 our highly popular USA Machine Learning Conference is back in New York City this November.
