In our FFI courses, we also put a lot of emphasis on interaction with the global finance and fintech community, so you can expand your network.

Frequently asked questions about our programs

  • What are the academic requirements for the certifications ? Is participation also possible without a bachelor's degree?

    Yes, this is possible. Our courses are SAQ certified and therefore suitable for professional certification in financial institutions. Swiss banking professionals have to prove regularly that they are up-to-date with the most current industry developments. This is what the SAQ certification is for. Future Finance Institute Switzerland does not award ECTS points, so no specific prerequisites are necessary. Nevertheless, we recommend joining us already with a certain knowledge of the financial industry in general. Our target audience is therefore "Financial Professionals".

  • Is the certification or the individual diplomas exclusively open to professionals from the banking and finance sector or can interested people, e.g. from the tax consulting or insurance sectors, also participate?

    FFI courses and diplomas are open to and also available for lateral entrants, insurance or tax experts. We recommend that participants bring with them (or have acquired) a certain level of finance industry knowledge in general, as the lecturers and experts (all of whom are experts in their field) generally build on certain basic knowledge with their lessons.

  • Is there a general attendance requirement for the individual live sessions or can the sessions (if they are recorded) at best be followed up in self-study?

    Unlike most self-guided online trainings, our FFI method is very much based on the live presence of the students. The participants receive self-study materials before each lecture. In the live online lesson itself, there is mainly a discussion or group work. We take great care to ensure that the participants do not have to consume boring frontal instruction, but work actively on the topics. The feedback shows us that this creates very good networks among the lecturers and students. Of the total of four afternoons of a course, the last afternoon can be "freely planned". In a time window of 24h, the students can complete a self-assessment to obtain a Swiss certificate. Nevertheless, if necessary, the live lectures are video-recorded and can be reworked in self-study.
