Bloomberg Workshop

You may have noticed the computers with Bloomberg keyboards in GHALL 137 and the adjacent terminal room. Drexel students have full access to Bloomberg Professional Service at these computers. All you need is to start up Bloomberg and create an account (by clicking on the corresponding link on the welcome page and signing up using your Drexel email address).

A Bloomberg representative will be on campus Tuesday, October 13, between 4 and 5:30pm in GHALL 137 to introduce Bloomberg’s vast capabilities. The first part of the workshop will focus on Bloomberg basics as well as its certification programs: Bloomberg’s Essentials Online Training (BESS) program and the brand-new Bloomberg Market Concepts (BMC).

These self-paced certification programs are a great way for new students to get started in finance and for more advanced students to check their progress!

The second part of the workshop will be geared towards ways in which Bloomberg can assist with equity research and portfolio management.

For those of you interested in Bloomberg, but unable to attend the presentation, go ahead and sign up for an account at one of the terminals. Once you’re signed up and logged in, you can access BESS and BMC as described in the downloadable attachments below.
