Your contribution
Although this study text is
designed to stand alone, as with most topics certain aspects of this subject are
constantly changing. Therefore it is very important that you keep up-to-date with these
key areas. For example, you should read the quality press and financial journals and look
out for relevant websites.
We anticipate that you will
study this course for one session (six months), reading through and studying approximately
one unit every week. However, note that as topics vary in size and as knowledge tends not
to fall into uniform chunks, some units are unavoidably longer than others.
