A Massive Need For Our Education

Think back to your days in school. Do you remember taking any classes that taught you how to save and manage your money? Do you remember classes that taught you to invest in the markets and generate income from trading? What about improving your credit score or how to buy insurance?

The answer is almost always "no" and yet, knowing how to manage each of these opportunities has an impact on our quality of life. There is a financial skills gap that exists today, and our world class on-campus and online education fills that void.

Ready-To-Go Business Model

Our business has no truly comparable competitors, and we only award one franchise owner into each major market, so you won't have any other Online Trading Academy financial education centers nearby.

You don't need to be a professional investor or educator to run a franchise. We'll provide you all the education resources for in-center classes and deliver our online education directly to your students.

With OTA, you'll learn to serve students in our 7-day Core Strategy Course — part of your Initial Franchise Training. Our dedicated franchise consultant team will coach you in all aspects of starting and running your business successfully and provide support with marketing, IT and systems, accounting, HR and education.
