It gives me immense pleasure to present the EIBFS learning solutions for 2022, with the theme ‘Ready for the future’. At the outset, I would like to appreciate the industry for their wholehearted support and collaboration which was the cornerstone of a major achievement in the form of winning the prestigious Dubai Quality appreciation award in 2021. We believe that this is a testimony of our vision, agility in the execution and commitment to the national mandate of developing future ready talent. The 2022 Learning Plan reflects our futuristic vision to understand the evolving nature of jobs and the related skills and competencies in the financial sector. The rapid strides made in the domains of Blockchain, Artificial intelligence, Robotic Process Automation etc. means that the skills and competencies needed for future banking jobs could be very different from the current skillsets. In this regard EIBFS is pleased to announce the launch of its own ‘Future Banking Skills framework’, which reflects the competencies needed for future bankers around digital skills, business skills, and new mindsets.
EIBFS has the vision of setting benchmarks for specialized roles in the financial sector. We aim to create competency driven qualifications for the various jobs in the banking sector. In this regard, we are very pleased to announce the launch of Internationally accredited Professional Certifications from EIBFS covering all the specialized and futuristic areas of Banking. These certifications would be delivered as learning pathways ensuring business impact and fast-tracked career progression. We are delighted to partner with Chartered Banker Institute (CBI) UK, the world’s oldest banking Institute for the accreditation of these programs.
The 2022 plan has many new programs especially in the areas of new future skills, responsible banking, and sustainability. We are hopeful that these programs, designed in close collaboration with the industry, will immensely benefit both the industry and the learners alike. With a portfolio of over 370 courses and around 1000 program schedules, the 2022 plan will holistically cater to the needs of the industry.
EIBFS learning solutions are aligned to the national vision of developing high quality Emirati talent pool, who are ready for the future. We are delighted to work closely with the Central Bank of UAE, Ministry of Emiratization, Human Resources Authority and other stakeholders to skill, upskill and
reskill the UAE national in the financial sector. We would like to thank the industry for its collaboration and support in the design of the new 2022
learning solutions. I urge the industry to join us in this transformational journey to develop a talent pool which is agile and future ready.
