My Journey to becoming a Quant

A Math graduate from the University, I spent a great deal of time looking for the CFA equivalent for algorithmic trading, and EPAT was the closest match. I had joined EPAT in 2014 and what started off as basics, practising and starting programming in Python, evolved into creating entire strategies in Excel, Machine Learning techniques, back-testing models in Python, and so much more. I loved how the course covered a wide range of topics. When I started the course I had plans to go back to university to study maths further but just before finishing the course I got hired by a coveted quantitative hedge fund as a quantitative analyst. A special thanks to the faculty and the support team that have been the force behind my success.

After having completed this course, I can highly recommend it. The instruction is top-notch and well-paced. The ability to review the lectures after the fact and pause and re-wind concepts was invaluable. I also found that the lecturers were extremely easy to understand both in terms of accents but also in terms of taking rather complicated subjects and reducing them to bite-sized pieces of digestible information.

The tools provided by the EPAT course will allow you to turn your passion into a profession or, like in my case, even if you decide to continue to do trading on a part-time basis, you will be able to apply more sophisticated techniques to the execution of your trading strategy

The domain of Quant Finance is enormous and can become quite chaotic if you do not know where to start. EPAT offers unique modules that help you tackle those challenges and feel more confident in your Quant and Programming skills. EPAT helped me specialize in Algo Trading which is a niche field of Quantitative Finance and develop my own trading strategies. I was truly amazed at how thoroughly modules like pairs trading, options trading and market microstructure were covered. It helped me understand strategies that are used today in some of the top-tier hedge funds. Apart from the modules, the support team is always there to help you with your queries.

I’m glad that I decided to enroll in EPAT. The learning at EPAT is very rounded up, it is very well-built and very comprehensive. I admire the practical lessons in which we apply some of the strategies that we have learned eg. Excel in strategies to get a good picture; and the courses in Python. The course learning material, the knowledge and the skills gained would surely be applied in the near future. If you’re interested in EPAT, just go for it.
