Introduction

There are three basic elements viz. knowledge, skills and attitudes which defines the quality of human capital of any organization. Training is the tool through which the three elements are acquired and upgraded.

Today widespread use of technology in financial institutions is driving the need of specialized training in all the areas from back to front office activities.

Certificate in Banking & Financial Services (CBFS) of IDBI Intech Ltd. encapsulates all the basic components of an accredited training.

With a jump in the Indian economy from a manufacturing sector, that never really took off, to a nascent service sector, banking as a whole is undergoing a change. With the retail banking sector witnessing a growth rate of 30% and insurance and mutual funds grew by 50% and 30% respectively, players are focusing more and more on the banking sector and are waking up to the potential of it. The banking sector which employs 9,00,000 people is predicted to employ 15,00,000 within couple of years.

The fact that the statistics reveal a huge potential also brings with it a threat that a large portion of the Indian population is not trained. Hence the need for someone who along with his/her technical skills and domain knowledge can deliver banking professionals to the modern banking sector.

And that is where IDBI Intech’s, CBFS Program pitches in.
