There is an examination accompanying the course - this provides evidence that the candidate has reached an appropriate level of understanding.
Please note however that we are currently unable to run exams due to our office being closed as a result of the Covid-19 lockdown restrictions.

“The UnaVista e-Learning Academy website is very clean and easy to navigate through. The content is well structured and relevant. The interface is very intuitive and it makes it easy to quickly find what you are looking for.
If you want to prepare for an exam (e.g. MiFIR, EMIR) this is the place to be. All the information you need is in only one place and very well structured. Therefore you can focus on assimilating it rather than looking for it in various places.
The courses have good graphics, easy to follow. The slides are easy to navigate through. You can find on the course's page more resources on the subject under the resources tab. Also the slides are available for download if you want them in a different format/printed/on another device. For the financial terms you don't understand you have a glossary tab and can find more explanations there.
The content of the course follows closely the qualifications' requirements. This was really helpful for me.”
Alexandra Tincu, UnaVista Development Architect
“The UnaVista e-Learning Academy is a good training environment with an intuitive menu and a smart user interface.
The content is well structured with the relevant information staying on the main page and other useful features added to improve the learning process (such as a calendar and dashboard).
The course content is very useful and it can be accessed either by video or downloaded as a ppt document and worked through at your own pace.
It helped me a lot for my current position within The London Stock Exchange in passing the exams for EMIR and MiFIR, the latter I passed with distinction.”
