Four Stocks for the New Year

Are there any classes I can take to become lisenced to trade stocks for other people without a 4 year degree?
I thought I heard my buddy say that he took classes on Kiplingers.com. He nows trades stocks for an insurance company. Are there any classes I can take to get a job trading stocks for company’s and or (take money from any person and trade them legally for them as a job). I do not have a four year degree right now but do have an associates in general studies.
