In the current economic climate, having a reliable, secure job
is probably the most important factor in all of our lives (other than
being in good health). Gainfully employed, we are part of the solution
rather than contributing to the problem, supporting our families, paying
our taxes, and (hopefully) putting money away for old age. For many of
us, however, it’s not that easy.
For those just coming out of education, it’s very hard to find a job
in the first place, with (we are told) thousands applying for each
position, and far fewer roles available. For many others, redundancy has
played its unfortunate part and the search for a new job is hampered by the paucity of suitable roles and the competition for them. And then there are those who do have a job but are stuck in a rut, with no salary rise for years and no prospect of that or a promotion.
In all the above cases, financial training can help.
After your education, qualifications are probably the next most
important element on your CV, sometimes even more crucial than your
actual career
experience. Every industry has some well-recognised acronyms that make a
huge difference: CIMA, ACCA, CIM, CAM, and of course MBA, and these are
qualifications that you can take at any point, not just straight out of
school / university. In the financial world, training and relevant
qualifications is seriously to be considered if your career is in a rut or just not starting, and you might be surprised about how affordable some courses are.
So how do you go about finding the right course?
If you’re in a job,
start by asking your boss and colleagues. Not only may they be able to
point you in the right direction, but your company could be interested
in supporting you financially. After all, they will also benefit from
the knowledge you gain from the training. Whatever your situation,
however, the obvious place to search is online. There are several ways
you can conduct this search, each as useful as the other:
