Industry Review

"I have looked for a long time for training opportunities to help me establish a strong foundation for understanding hedging, futures, and basis trading.  The Grain Elevator Financing Course has done exactly this.  As a lender, it has given me the tools to be more effective in my evaluation of the risk management practices in place by these types of credits.  My ability to meaningfully monitor these types of credits, as well as any of our credits that are using hedging has been greatly enhanced.  It's a very intriguing and complex area that has become so much clearer for me as a result of this course.

I appreciated the clarity of information presented and the repetitiveness of it.  The support of a coach through this process was invaluable.  It was very fulfilling to gain these extra levels of knowledge and put them to practical use."
