IFBI has also extended its portfolio by partnering with three leading banks, in addition to the ICICI Bank, in the country. Through these partnerships, IFBI conducted training programs for new and existing employees of the banks on the basics of banking and core banking software solution.
This is the first year of operations of IFBI.
According to Dr. Smarajit Dey, President-Strategic Initiatives, NIIT, The rapidly growing banking and financial services sector in India is faced with an acute shortage of talent. NIITs IFBI is focussed at developing talent for the industry by grooming entry-level candidates and re-skilling existing professionals. The institute will extend its offerings to reach out to a large untapped market, beyond metros.
