The event will give you the opportunity to sample a typical lecture on our Professional Diploma in Banking programme at level 9.
IOB has a longstanding relationship with the Chartered Banker Institute (UK) whereby IOB members who successfully complete our Professional Diploma in Banking programme,( level 9), which is delivered by IOB and accredited by University College Dublin (UCD) are deemed to have automatically met the Chartered Banker Designation criteria and can apply for it, thus receiving both a UCD Award and the Chartered Banker Designation.
The Chartered Banker designation is considered to be: • Internationally recognised as the gold standard for professionals working in the banking sector. • Holders of the designation are recognised as highly qualified, professionals with a detailed knowledge of the modern banking sector and its ethical and professional requirements. The Professional Diploma in Banking consists of the following three modules: 1. Risk Management in Financial Institutions - runs from October 2024 to January 2025 2. Bank Governance and Regulation- runs from October 2024 to January 2025 3. Bank Capital and Asset Liability Management- Runs from February 2025 to May 2025
Students must complete the two Autumn Trimester modules first (Risk Management in Financial Institutions AND Bank Governance and Regulation) before moving on to the Spring Trimester module (Bank Capital and ALM). Each module carries 10 ECTS (academic credits).
In this programme taster sample lecture Níall Fitzgerald, who delivers the Bank Governance and Regulation module, will discuss: • How AI is reinventing the wheel of compliance • What the regulatory governance requirements are for AI • How AI impacts purpose and values in our Financial Institutions • AI policies and procedures with a strategic, operational and customer focus
