    Hi all,

    Has anyone taken this course at all? I'd be really interested to hear feedback about content and difficulty. I'm assuming it's not at the level of actuarial study, but there is some overlap.

    If you know it (or anyone doing it) could you advise one or more of the text books ibpn use, to help get a direct flavour also?

    Anyone else looking at this? It's a 2 years course, offered only every 2nd year.

    Many thanks all for any info.

    If you're interested in risk then you might be interested in thinking about the MSc in finance at Trinity, http://www.tcd.ie/business/masters/finance/partnerships/ , which along with UCD is a partner with PRIMA, can be taken full or part-time, and runs every year.

    Thanks so much for that info! I would not have found that!! And on the face of it looks actually more relevant to the work I do, I'm going to have a more detailed read of the modules over weekend, but really thanks.

    Could you explain something for me, as I work, it's likely be part time (ie 2 year) route. Do you happen to know how this translates? From the description offered (I'm not too clear on) classes are afternoon/early evening. Would I still be able to work or be taking a lot of rime off?

    Thanks again for the info, really!
