I signed up to take a few courses at NYU towards a certificate in "Financial Risk Management." This fall I will be taking an "Asset Securitization" course.
When I was doing my Masters at NYU I could've taken a few electives at the school of business but I chose not to. I was preoccupied with learning application server design and formal software engineering methodologies. At the time it was useful. In retrospect, though, I wish I had more business training.
So, that is why I swallowed my pride and decided to go back to NYU for some continuing education courses. I wanted to select a course of study that I would find interesting as an individual, something that would be valuable to my current employer and something that I could leverage in the future. "Risk Management" fit the description.
