AN ACCELERATED YET RIGOROUS ROUTE FOR EXPERIENCED BANKING PROFESSIONALS TO ACHIEVE CHARTERED BANKER STATUS.
If you have more than ten years’ business experience, including five in relevant banking and financial services roles and meet the detailed requirements, you may be eligible to fast-track your Chartered Banker qualification in just 12 weeks.
Holders of the Chartered Banker qualification are top professionals in the financial services sector, and this qualification recognises their expertise, experience and contribution to banking.

CHARTERED BANKER BY EXPERIENCE: HOW IT WORKS
To begin the Chartered Banker by Experience qualification, you must go through a screening process, which reviews your experience and assesses evidence required to apply for the program. Once you have reviewed the entry requirements you can submit your application and declaration form for review by FINSIA.
Following a successful screening process, candidates are assessed by the completion of three tasks.
Step 1: Critical self-evaluation – three reflective statements of between 800-1200 words.
Step 2: A 3000-word professional ethics assignment.
Step 3: Meeting with your assessor to complete a presentation and professional discussion.
