The Options Industry Council announced today new online course offerings in options for financial advisors as it continues its partnership with the Rutgers University School of Business–Camden.
Presented in partnership with OIC, the new Rutgers University Options courses are available online and accredited for continuing education. The courses are designed to help financial advisors better protect clients’ investments, spark new ideas for high-net clients and build their practice through the implementation of options strategies. By offering the courses online, registrants can take them when their schedules allow.

Sean E. Heron, CFA, an adjunct finance faculty member at the Rutgers School of Business-Camden is presenting the material in each of the three classes. The new curriculum includes: Options Basics, Covered Calls and Options Pricing.
The Options courses are free of charge and each course is 60 minutes in length. For more detailed course information and to register please visit options.rutgers.edu.
