Are Singapore College of Insurance (SCI) papers like M9A, M9 useful springboards for learning about investing?

Despite having a diploma in accountancy, I'm not familiar with investing at all. I'm looking to get started and studying for M9A has raised a variety of useful terms/keywords (like diversification coefficient and credit risk) that have spurred me to search more on the subject.

Am wondering if taking these SCI papers is beneficial to someone like myself, and if there are even more efficient/optimal learning resources to utilize (aside from Seedly).
