The Chartered Institute of Bankers of Nigeria has re-certified the Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation Academy as a training service provider for various professionals in the banking industry for the next three years effective June 2020.
The re-certification, according to Head of the five-man CIBN accreditation team, Mr. Saubana Ogunpola, followed the exemplary performance of the academy since its initial accreditation in 2016 and the satisfaction of the stringent conditions for the re-certification.
He noted that there would be periodic monitoring to ensure quality standards.
Ogunpola commended NDIC for its consistent efforts towards meeting high standards for the benefit of the banking industry and the larger economy.
He described the NDIC’s readiness to subject itself to the rigours of the institute’s accreditation process as a testimony of its management’s commitment to capacity development for all stakeholders.
Reacting to the development, NDIC’s Managing Director/Chief Executive, Mr. Umaru Ibrahim, described the recertification as another milestone in NDIC’s efforts to consolidate the position of the academy as a centre of academic excellence in the nation’s banking industry and on deposit insurance in Africa.
He disclosed that the academy had so far trained 13,368 participants across the NDIC workforce.
