5TH EDITION OF THE BOURSTAD PROGRAM
High schools, CEGEPs and community colleges across Canada are invited to register with the 2020-2021 Bourstad Program. Schools in this program can organize private stock market simulations for their students during the school year and also enroll their students in the 2021 Bourstad Challenge to be held from February 8 to April 9, 2021. School registration procedure is described on www.bourstad.ca.
Bourstad simulations are held online on a cutting edge platform. In a Bourstad simulation, the participant acts as an investment advisor to a fictitious saver.
There are three types of Bourstad simulations:
(1) Bourstad Challenge
(2) private Bourstad simulations,
(3) Bourstad Anytime, an individual simulation.
Bourstad is an exciting way to get familiar with the world of economics and finance.
The application includes supervision features for teachers and rich support for participants.
