We’re learning through new methods of standards,  accreditation,  & pedagogy and development styles, that we can promote  greater learning principles and new strategic thinking to professionals much more efficiently than traditional  methods.. While some certificates of training,  the Certification Process of the Academy was established largely by graduate professionals and experts from the ‘real world’ by integrating top  professional development criteria, graduate and governance  standards.

 

We offer several specialized designations rather than create a broad, all encompassing financial designation such as those for ‘financial analysis’ or ‘financial planning’.  The GAFM ® has taken a research based approach to our charter and certification  structures and created specialist designations for a wide range of careers in the banking, management, risk, and finance sector.  Each designation is targeted at a specific skill-set required to perform a role in the finance domain with world-class expertise.
