Our Mission

Making career-related education accessible around the globe

Our mission is to blend academic and practical teaching with active networking to bring the best asset management-related education to anyone with online access.

We developed the world-leading Henley Executive Hedge Fund Program from a single in-person course to a global, online community of hundreds of alumni, instructors and industry members, before adding the unique Henley Family Office Program to the offering.

Professionals around the world have been able to advance their careers through a combination of practical content and face-to-face networking. Our students include staff from leading companies such as Accenture, Bank of America, BNP Paribas, BNY Mellon, Bloomberg, Citigroup, CQS, Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs, Harneys, Morgan Stanley, EY, JP Morgan, Point 72, Refinitiv, Rokos Capital, SS&C, Walkers, Wells Fargo and more.
