1 Global Markets Apprenticeship programme A Blended-Learning Program by ACF Consultants Ltd Produced: 25 Sep 2017
2 Structure Working closely with employers, we train apprentices across the principal areas of the wholesale banking industry. The objectives of this programme are: To provide an integrated, coordinated and effective training programme To embed the employer s culture into the approach and examples used To encourage interaction between students, teamwork, and how to facilitate the building of a network across cultural and business divisions To ensure a sound knowledge of fundamental concepts To give delegates the ability to apply theory to practice to fix knowledge in delegates minds and to build solid foundations to support later learning To introduce the range of fixed-income, equity, and commodity products, their uses and applications To present a clear explanation of derivative products, their benefits and risks To demonstrate how banks apply the concepts and products to their business To ensure that all concepts are put into immediate practice, using simulation and intensive interactive case studies, to consolidate the learning process After completing the apprenticeship programme, participants will: Have a solid understanding of the role and functioning of the debt capital markets Be familiar with a wide range of fixed-income and equity instruments of pricing, structuring and hedging Understand how all these products are implemented and managed within banking operations and will be able to effectively apply their knowledge immediately. Blended Learning Blended learning is a fundamental principle of the ACF approach to training. Our seminars offer a fully integrated, multi-faceted learning experience which ensures that knowledge is applied in practice and retained effectively. We limit the numbers attending each program to maximise the benefit for each student. Passive learning is kept to a minimum, and the emphasis is on apprentices achieving a true understanding of the key concepts, and how they are applied in the real world. The diagram provides a summary of the 12-month program for this graduate level apprenticeship. Detailed content is described in the following sections.
