Bloomberg for Education Receives Prestigious Award

Bloomberg has announced a significant achievement for its educational initiative, Bloomberg for Education, which has been honored with a prestigious Tech & Learning Award for Higher Education. This award highlights the program's remarkable contributions to educational technology and its continuous impact on teaching methods worldwide.

The Tech & Learning Awards recognize exemplary educational technology that assists teachers, students, and educational professionals in enhancing classroom instruction, professional development, and management within institutions. With this award, Bloomberg for Education is acknowledged as an innovative leader in the field.

The award panel was particularly impressed with Bloomberg for Education’s practical approach to learning. They noted, “When it comes to preparing students for real careers, Bloomberg for Education stands out as a high-impact tool at the higher education level. Giving students hands-on access to professional-grade tools like the Bloomberg Terminal fosters essential real-world skills, boosts confidence, and enhances career readiness in ways that simulated platforms cannot.”

According to James Coyle, Head of Bloomberg for Education, “We are honored to be recognized among the world’s top educational technology innovators. Our aim is to provide students with meaningful experiences related to financial markets, helping them differentiate themselves as they transition into their careers.”

In addition to winning the Higher Education category, Bloomberg for Education was also recognized in the Secondary Education sector, illustrating the increasing adoption of Bloomberg tools across diverse educational stages. Coyle added, “There is a growing interest among colleges, universities, and both private and secondary schools aiming to establish Bloomberg Finance Labs on their campuses.”

A testament to this engagement is the recent involvement of over 11,000 students from 50 countries in the Bloomberg Global Trading Challenge, which has become the largest virtual investing competition conducted on the Bloomberg Terminal.

Students utilizing Bloomberg Finance Labs gain access to a comprehensive learning portal. This platform includes tutorials, webinars, and online certification courses designed to deepen their understanding of financial markets. By offering these resources, Bloomberg is enhancing the educational experience and ensuring that students are well-prepared for the complexities of modern finance.
