New! How to Buy Commodities and Raw Material

Description:

How to Buy Commodities and Raw Material

Investing, Speculating or Hedging in Stocks, Options, and Futures

Learn how the definition of commodities and raw material can vary. Be informed about where you buy the products, how they are priced, how to forecast price movements, and the risk in commodities buying. This course explains how you may be protected from price changes by regulation and hedging. Learn how you can reduce the risk by diversifying and improve profits by leveraging your purchases.

Our self-running online commodities courses are attended via the Internet. They require up to two or three continuous hours of attendance. Students are initially contacted by email with instructions on how to take the course for which they have registered. Students may attend the online commodities course at any time during the day. This makes these seminars more convenient for students. All materials are included in the price of the course and will be available online while attending classes. Our How to Buy Commodities & Raw Material courses are nonrefundable. Instructions for these courses are usually sent within a few days of registration. Normally, the Society likes to see this type of training for procurement professionals completed within a month of having sent out the instructions. If too much time elapses without a procurement training seminar being completed the student may have to register for it again.

It is each student's responsibility to contact the Society if instructions are not received within the time frames listed above. Failure to do so may result in additional fees. Students can contact the Society at 630-859-0250 or at propurch@propurch.com.
