Join us for a programme taster for the new Professional Certificate in Governance (Level 7)
Governance is essential in the financial services sector because it underpins regulatory compliance, risk management, consumer protection, market integrity, and the long-term sustainability of financial institutions. Effective governance frameworks ensure that financial institutions operate responsibly, ethically, and transparently, fostering trust and confidence among stakeholders and contributing to the overall stability and health of the financial system.
This programme is suitable for all financial services professionals, as governance is required across all roles, from entry level to Board level, from IT to outsourcing, procurement, artificial intelligence and human resources.
Join associate faculty, Eilis Griffin, as she sets the scene for the programme, and takes us through a sample of what will be covered.
There is 0.5 CPD hours available for the following designations:
Licentiate of Compliance Institute
Professional Banker
Chartered Banker
Certified Bank Director
Fellow of Compliance Institute (Compliance)
Certified Fintech Risk & Compliance Professional
