New Professor Promotion
Welcome Finance, Accounting and Economics Professors:
StockTrak.com has been the leading academic stock market simulation for over 25 years. At StockTrak.com, professors create a customized trading period and establish the trading parameters for their classes, and then the students manage a virtual portfolio of stocks, options, bonds, futures, currencies, mutual funds, and commodities from over 50 global exchanges. While the students are trading, professors have complete access to their students’ trading history and the overall class rankings.
While over 1,000 professors in 50 countries use it each year, we realize that many professors haven’t taken that first step to try it in their classes—this page is intended for professors that are new to StockTrak.com.
