Distance learning GCSE Level Cookery course for Home Educators

About the course “Quantum Computing for Finance” is an emerging multidisciplinary field of quantum physics, finance, mathematics, and computer science, in which quantum computations are applied to solve complex problems. “Quantum Algorithms for Computational Finance” is an advanced course in the emerging field of quantum computing for finance. This technical course will develop an understanding in quantum algorithms for its implementation on quantum computers. Through this course, you will learn the basics of various quantum algorithms including: Grover’s and Rudolf’s algorithm, Quantum amplitude Estimation (QAE) algorithm envisioned as a quadratic speed-up over Classical Monte-Carlo simulations, Combinatorial optimization algorithms namely Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA), and Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE), and Quantum-inspired optimization algorithms – Simulated Coherent Ising Machine (Sim-CIM), and Simulated Bifurcation Algorithm (SBA). This course is meant for all those learners who want to explore the long-term employability of quantum computing in finance, assuming that you are familiar with the concepts of quantitative and computational finance. In addition, the course contains several Python based programming exercises for learners to practice the algorithms explained throughout the course. This course is the second part of the specialised educational series: “Quantum Computing for Finance”. What Skills you will learn Ability to perform quantum arithmetic operations and simulations. An understanding of the Quantum Amplitude Estimation algorithm and its variants. The computational and modelling techniques for option pricing and portfolio optimization on a quantum computer. The skills for a career in quantum finance including Quantum Algorithmic Research, Quantitative Asset Management and Trading, financial engineering, and risk management, using quantum computing technology. Course Prerequisites All potential learners must have prior knowledge or familiarity with basic quantum algorithms/basic quantum programming. Before enrolling this course, we recommend all learners to complete the first course “Introduction to Quantitative and Computational Finance” of the series “Quantum Computing for Finance”, if they have no previous experience with the concepts of quantitative and computational finance. Duration The estimated duration to complete this course is approximately 6 weeks (~4hrs/week). Course assessment To complete the course and earn the certification, you must pass all the quizzes at the end of each lesson by scoring 80% or more on each of them. Instructors QuantFiQuantFi is a French start-up research firm formed in 2019 with the objective of using the science of quantum computing to provide solutions to the financial services industry. With its staff of PhD's and PhD students, QuantFi engages in fundamental and applied research in in the field of quantum finance, collaborating with industrial partners and universities in seeking breakthroughs in such areas as portfolio optimisation, asset pricing, and trend detection.

This course bundle is aimed at absolute beginners to IT who want to start a career in Cisco networking or just develop their skills in this area. The course assumes you have no technical knowledge of IT whatsoever. To understand Cisco networking and practice it at a technical level, you must first possess an understanding of basic IT literacy as well as certain technologies, which you will be taught through this course. Through this course, you will gain a series of globally recognised networking certifications from CompTIA and Cisco. You will also possess a set of networking skills you can apply to a vast range of IT job roles. From the beginning, we teach you about basic IT literacy, basic software features and functions, basic networking, operating systems, and basic security threats. From there, the course steps up a notch exploring these areas in more depth. As you progress through the various stages, your knowledge of networking will gradually begin to develop. The course bundle is comprised of five separate courses in total. Once of which is skills based only with no exam, and four certification courses with a final exam after each course. The final course being the Cisco Certified Networking Associate (CCNA). The first course (CompTIA IT Fundamentals) provides a soft introduction to basic IT terminology, concepts and technology. To help you grasp the concepts and develop the skills within the course, simulators are also included. These allow you to practice your networking skills learnt on the course. In the IT world, these simulators are otherwise known as ‘Live Labs’.
