Course Description

Master the Canadian Securities Course (CSC®) Level 1 exam with an all-in-one learning system that blends engaging video instruction, concise chapter notes, exam-style practice, on-demand AI tutoring, and bite-sized podcasts. By the end of the program you’ll be fluent in the language of Canada’s capital markets, comfortable with the most-tested formulas and ethics rules, and confident you can earn the credential every CIRO-licensed investment professional needs.

What Sets This Course Apart

You learn through HD video lectures that unpack each textbook chapter, download-and-go student notes for rapid review, and auto-graded practice questions modelled on the real blueprint.

An AI chapter tutor stands by 24/7 to clarify formulas, generate fresh quiz variants, or walk you through bond-pricing math in plain language. Long commutes? Plug into our 20- to 45-minute chapter podcasts and internalise concepts through case studies, expert interviews, and step-by-step problem walk-throughs.

Exactly What You’ll Master

  • The structure of Canada’s investment marketplace, the role of dealers, and the latest trends disrupting capital flows.

  • The full regulatory landscape—from CSA and CIRO mandates to Client Focused Reforms—plus exam-tested ethics scenarios.

  • Core economic indicators, interest-rate cycles, and how they influence security prices and portfolio strategy.

  • Valuation and trading of fixed-income, equities, derivatives, ETFs, and alternative products, with hands-on pricing drills.

  • Portfolio theory, risk metrics, taxation basics, and client-suitability guidelines, all aligned to CIRO’s new competency map.


    Who Will Benefit

    • Aspiring investment and mutual-fund advisors who must clear the CSC to secure CIRO licensing.

    • Bank, credit-union, and trust-company professionals transitioning into securities sales or advisory roles

    • Finance students, career switchers, and serious self-directed investors seeking a recognised credential and deeper market insight.

Instructor Details

Harry Vadalkar

I am a CFA charter holder, MBA, CSC- Financial Educator | FinTech Strategist | Retired Fintech Founder  | Author of The Wealthy Canadian | Harvard and MIT certified

I retired as a fintech founder, and lifelong student of the money game.

I started my financial journey in 2010 with a bag full of ambition and a love for spreadsheets. I taught myself how to invest, bought Bitcoin at $113, and slowly built a diversified portfolio blending rental real estate, ETFs, and tech stocks.

After exiting my fintech startup (yes, I escaped the startup sauna with my sanity intact), I found my calling in financial education. Today, I teach at SAIT and Mount Royal University, help design Canada’s first FinTech BBA major, and mentor thousands of students around the world through Udemy.

What I Bring to You: With over 25,000+ students on Udemy and a background that blends finance, education, and technology, I teach what traditional textbooks don’t: how to make smart financial decisions using humor, real-life stories, and practical tools.

honestly prof is really good with the subject. but little disappointed with how he treated chapter 25, 26 and 27. he rushed without explaining properly. he should have put more efforts.

By Hasan Abis on 12/23/2023

great video..He has explained everything very well and takes time and explains slowly so everyone can catch on, even new students in this field.

By Anna K on 12/9/2023

Love the way everything is being explained! The only feedback I have is to go more in detail for each topic it may take longer but I feel that would be the icing on the cake for this course

By Vinesha McIntosh on 8/11/2022

It is good so far. The pace is fine. A bit monotonous at times but I am able to keep up. The information is relevant and the instructor is knowledgeable.

By Amanda on 2/24/2022

The number of phone chimes and notifications drives me crazy. Some of the content is really good but other pieces could be better because it's rushed through and not really explained as well as it could be. Spelling errors on the presentation is hard because some of us are new to this and I can't tell if they are spelling errors or if that's what they are actually called until I google it later...

By Vishal Rajan on 2/20/2022

It's good but could be better, there are free courses on YouTube with the same quality or better, but the strength of this course is your ability to explain in simple terms. Sometimes you skim over things really fast, and you should be referring to things that we might see on the test from each chapter. It looks like you just took basic PowerPoints and are reading off of it sometimes, but other times, your explanation is really good.

By Gary Teng on 7/11/2020

Great course. The instructor gives a pretty good outline of the course, however, be sure to still read the book as small details can be missed and left out within these lectures.

By Jonatan Spam on 5/27/2020

He should definitely refilm some of his videos. Some his videos he is in bed or on the couch in a t-shirt. Overall the videos are very helpful and is a great tool for the value. I also like how we see his face as it brings more life into the lessons. He should also explain how to use a financial calculator as opposed to excel. Also he could speak a little more enthusiastically he does sound very monotone/dry, I recommend that you watch his videos at 1.25% speed it brings a bit more life into the course. Also I recommend that you read the chapters after listening to improve memory and make sure to review any details he may or may not have mentioned.

By Frank Ruberintwari on 12/9/2019

the explanations are clear and examples consistent and relevant to the market. thank you very much for all your efforts to make these summaries.

By Umang Sharma on 12/8/2019

Yes, Its Good. I hope that this course covers almost everything required to give exams directly after finishing all the modules.
