Thesaurus defines innovation as modernism; modernization; improvement; advancement and originality. Just as well, because here at The Financial Training Academy we are proud to be implementing all of these definitions in our own products and infrastructure.
The Financial Services is an industry that is well established and highly respected by countries around the world. In order to ensure that students, who begin their career path here at our academy, are primed to continue the excellent work already being delivered by the financial services, we are continually advancing our offering.
It is our intention that our students are looked upon as the best prepared ‘new blood’ for the industry. In order to achieve this, a number of strategic plans are put into action.
The plans range from attention to detail; learning the essence of treating customers fairly; clear communication, both written and verbal; good sales practices; customer retention; and many other areas relating to good long term development.
We found that concentrating on these key areas enable our students to be ready for work in almost every sector of the financial services.
Teaching is a great art. Adding value to the teaching by supplying free mock exam papers; revision aids; and interactive electronic media to enhance the learning process all provide an excellent platform for our students to not only pass their exams but to excel in their achievements with merit and distinction grades.
Looking down at a book for many hours of the day is also a poor way to study. We have therefore installed computer projectors in all our classrooms thus allowing the student to gain maximum benefit from the lectures. We found that the transfer and retention of knowledge was much higher than that of just physically looking down at course material.
We are proud to lead the way in excellent coaching of our students in the area of work readiness. This area concentrates on CV writing; interview skills; interview interactivity; body language and key negotiating skills. The process has enabled our students a choice of work placements, thus boosting their self-confidence and enabling the employer to save months of in-house training.
Learning and then passing a course may not be so difficult for the able student. However, as in almost every field, especially the financial sector, the practical knowledge provides the real substance. Once again, leading in innovation, we have developed a number of courses which provide that all-essential foundation of working in a real-life work environment. These tailor made courses were designed by working closely with employers in the city ranging from Banks, Mortgage Packagers and Mortgage Brokers.
