A quick review of the notebooks shows its more just a recipe cookbook for some basic tasks.. I don't really see how this is "training".

This course is up to date. It's been used by several banks to train their new analysts and associates and is designed specifically for finance professionals >> https://pyfi.com/pages/bundle-offer

Some comments in here already touching on this being dated.

Any suggested resources that are up-to-date? Paid or free.

Does JPM have a global python object system like GS?

It’s quite out of date isn’t it.

I think it's a lot more interesting to read the source code of Bank Python as well as its proprietorial editor.

I prefer the article title that my eye's read when I first opened the page:

"Monty Python's training for business analysts and traders"

I'm sure that that was required reading at the Crimson Permanent Assurance corporation.

For a second I thought of trying it, but then I thought there is zero alpha in doing such thing

If this is what they are using as “training”, no wonder my portfolio with them doesn’t perform. Rookies
