While critical to an overall economy, the energy, minerals & metals, and agriculture commodities, are generally underserved in terms of knowledge and skill enhancement opportunities. Working professionals and executives working either in the operational side of the industry or those associated with the broader commodities sector (analysts, lawyers, insurers, accountants, attorneys, HR professionals) often do not have adequate opportunities to keep themselves current with the latest developments in the commodities marketplace.
Commodities are everywhere—they touch every business in the world, yet general business education typically does not meet these specialized needs. The J.P. Morgan Center for Commodities and Energy Management is uniquely positioned to fill this gap, through its offer of online courses on commodities.
