Watch the informative demo.
Electronic banking is hot! “Hot,” as in exciting, edgy and increasingly in demand by businesses and consumers. And “hot” as in risky and possibly hazardous to the touch.
Banks have to offer a full range of electronic banking products today to serve their customers and to match their competitors. But they also have to manage the significant array of risks electronic banking entails – reputation, competition, security, fraud, audit and compliance risks among them.
This is why more institutions are appointing Electronic Banking Managers dedicated to overseeing this fast-growing, mission-critical area, and why it is essential to ensure that these employees have the training they need to handle their responsibilities.
Our Electronic Banking Manager Certification Training Program combines a broad overview of electronic banking technologies and opportunities with a detailed, in-depth explanation of the strategies, policies and procedures required to implement and oversee electronic banking programs, ensure their profitability, manage their risks, and use them effectively to attract new customers and strengthen relationships with existing ones.
The program consists of five sessions offered as on-line Webinars or in a Master DVD; supplemented by study and reference materials (also available on-line); and updated as needed to reflect changes in technology, regulations and market conditions.
Employees who complete the Electronic Banking Manager Certification Training Program earn this prestigious professional designation and with it, the training that will equip them to maximize the benefits of E-banking solutions while reducing the potential risks for your bank and its customers.
