Vanier College and Moody’s Analytics/CSI partner to offer key industry courses
Vanier College and Moody’s Analytics/CSI are pleased to announce a partnership agreement to provide key industry courses supplementing the college’s existing professional development courses and industry-specific certification programs.
Obtaining recognized credentials
By partnering with Moody’s Analytics/CSI, Vanier College is providing students with an opportunity to enter the employment market and the financial services industry already possessing industry-recognized credentials and licensing courses, a significant advantage in any employment search.
“We’re very excited to be partnering with Vanier College. We work with all of the major financial institutions in Canada and many of the programs offered are the same programs that are embedded into job requirements with the top banks in Canada.” Carl Brillinger, Director, Moody’s Analytics.
New 21-hour coaching sessions
Through this partnership, Vanier College will offer new 21-hour coaching sessions for individuals registering to the online Canadian Securities Course with Moody’s Analytics/CSI, in English or in French. Successful completion of this course allows a student to fulfill the base securities licensing requirements for mutual funds sales, managed future funds / commodity pools, exempt securities and labour-sponsored investment funds.
“This partnership is perfectly consistent with the College’s new strategic goal to promote lifelong learning by enlarging and enriching its array of personal and professional development courses in order to better meet the constantly evolving needs of the community and of businesses,” says Sylvie Lord, Vanier College Director of Strategic Partnerships, Personal and Professional Development Services.
This partnership attests to Vanier’s and Moody’s commitment to providing pertinent, quality education to the community and further builds on Moody’s commitment to supporting post-secondary institutes with licensing and industry-specific training to build a stronger workforce.
