Courses to get greater understanding of financial markets

I’m looking to for an online course that is useful for people that work in S&T.  I’m looking for something that gives a good understanding about the different asset classes and how they are traded, I’m happy to pay for the course if needs be.  I’ve heard of courses such as CFA etc. but looking for something that would be more relevant to a trader?

Thanks for your help,

FYI: I have a grad offer to do trading at an investment bank, but just looking for materials to expand my knowledge before I start.
