StreamBase will initially offer the program to educational institutions that offer graduate courses in Financial Mathematics, Financial Engineering, Algorithmic Trading and Quantitative Finance, and to MBA programs offering electronic trading electives. In addition StreamBase will be available to students of Paul Wilmott's Global Certificate in Quantitative Finance (CQF) course.
The StreamBase University program includes online training materials required for Level 1 StreamBase Certification at no cost to the students or the educational institution, for up to 30 students per year per course. This will be available online and is designed for those students who wish to certify their StreamBase CEP skills. Certified StreamBase developers are then licensed to develop and submit applications, examples, and frameworks to the StreamBase Component Exchange (SBX) to spark innovation between academia and industry.
