Our
educational philosophy involves hands-on exposure to hedging strategies and
decisions through interactive discussion and simulations. This interesting and
effective approach facilitates an understanding of how futures and options
strategies function and relate to your physical commodity positions. Doing so
places you in a favorable posture to manage your price risk and help control the
profit margin of your enterprise.
