Training Resources for Multi Strat Hedge Fund?

Hi All,

I've recently started a role in IR at a multi-strat hedge fund, and I'm struggling to keep up with the terminology and concepts! I don't need to understand the sub-strategies as thoroughly as the PMs but the more I can grasp them the better.

I don't have a background in investment management and they are well aware of that, and appreciate there will be a big learning curve, but I want to be proactive and try to do my own studying so I can get up to speed as quickly as possible!

Are there just some online resources I can look at, or is the best approach a formal certification?

Thanks!
