Every Time You Buy a Stock, You Are Trading Against Someone He Trained.

Ken Freeman spent over 20 years executing transactions on Wall Street before he ever stepped in front of a classroom. He has structured and closed M&A deals. He holds the CFA designation. He is the lead trainer for Analyst and Associate Programs at 30+ institutions in New York City and across the country, including JPMorgan, Barclays, BlackRock, and Morgan Stanley.

When he built RTWS, the thinking was simple: the training that Wall Street firms pay Ken to deliver to their own analysts should not require you to already have the job. You should be able to walk in with those skills already.

The Story

He Trained the Analysts at the Banks You Are Trying to Get Into.

Ken Freeman has been in rooms most people never get near. He has sat across from partners at top firms. He has closed deals. He has walked into JPMorgan, Barclays, BlackRock, and 30 other institutions as the person responsible for preparing their incoming analysts.

There is a gap between what business school teaches and what the job actually demands on day one. Ken has spent his career in that gap. First as a banker doing the work. Then as the expert firms call when they need their analysts ready.

RTWS was built around one belief: the training that institutions pay Ken to deliver to their own people should not require you to already have the offer. You should be able to walk in with those skills already built.

Not theory. Not a course built by someone who read the books. Instruction from someone who executed at the highest level and spent years figuring out exactly how to transfer it.

“I will teach you what the job actually requires and exactly how to get there from where you are right now.”
