Simply Sharia Human Capital (SSHC) has signed a long-term Training Agreement with the prestigious Spanish business school, Escuela de Finanzas.
SSHC will offer the Islamic Finance Qualification (IFQ), developed by global professional body the Chartered Institute for Securities & Investment (CISI), as a part of Escuela de Finanzas’ CISI Masters Programme in Wealth Management and Islamic Finance.
Escuela de Finanzas’ Masters Programme is a five part course covering Financial Markets, Portfolio Construction Theory, Applied Wealth Management, Islamic Finance and Skill Management.
The Agreement provides the esteemed private Spanish business school with the CISI’s IFQ, a ground-breaking, globally recognised foundation course, which will equip students with a practical understanding of Islamic finance principles, products and models of business.
As a reputable Accredited Training Provider based in the UK, SSHC will undertake delivery of the IFQ. Accredited through the CISI, SSHC is committed to the development and growth of the Islamic Finance industry through training, education and recruitment; seeking to connect conventional institutions with the IF sector through competent, qualified and highly skilled individuals.
With its headquarters in A Coruña, Escuela de Finanzas specialises in Postgraduate courses in Finance, in both Spain and on campuses in Bogota and Montevideo, South America. For the future, the school is focussed on international business and collaborative partnerships.
Ruth Martin, CISI Managing Director, said: “We are delighted to support this collaboration between Simply Sharia and Escuela de Finanzas. It is important that students are offered qualifications which will not only build on their knowledge but give them the edge and an unique selling point in these difficult job market conditions.”
Faizal Karbani, CEO of SSHC said: “We are thrilled to be working with Escuela de Finanzas in delivering the IFQ, which has become an integral part of our Islamic training repertoire.
“Through the CISI qualification, SSHC can continue its commitment to develop and enhance the Islamic Finance industry through training and education; seeking to connect conventional institutions with the IF sector through competent, qualified and highly skilled individuals.”
Venancio Salcines, President of Escuela de Finanzas said: “Spain has a very strong historic relationship with Islamic countries. It didn´t make any sense that in a country like Spain with this historic background no one offered IFQ, this is why we have embraced this responsibility, and we want to develop this program in the Chartered Institute for Securities and Investment´s framework and with the help of one of the worldwide leaders in Islamic Finance”
