Great things always happen when institutions come together for a common cause. And this is what has happened in the new collaboration we have entered into.

Praxis Business School has tied up with AAFM® (India) for creating more meaningful and impactful learning outcomes for our students in Banking, Financial Services and Insurance (BFSI) vertical. The partnership has been forged based on the understanding that education becomes truly effective when it prepares individuals not just for passing the examinations, but performing in the work place right from the very first day.

How the Partnership Benefits the Students

There are many ways in which this new partnership would benefit our students:

  •  Relevant industry education focusing on the requirements of BFSI employers
  •   Professional certification programs through AAFM® (India) to complement educational credentials
  •  Opportunities to get exposed to the key areas such as operations of Investment Banking, Financial Markets & Wealth Management

While most professional certification programs can be considered as add ons to academic studies, this new program will be complementary to the regular curriculum – making students more knowledgeable about how the concepts learnt are implemented in the fast moving and knowledge hungry BFSI domain.

Closing the Gap between Academic Education & Work Place Requirements

One of the major challenges in financial services education is the gap between what has been taught and what is required in the work place. This partnership addresses that gap effectively by merging the academic excellence of Praxis with the industry recognized certification structure of AAFM®(India).

A Common Commitment towards Academia-Industry Collaborations

This is one among the several partnerships that we have formed to give more relevance to the learning outcomes of our students – especially in the light of rapidly evolving financial services landscape. Providing students access to the industry recognized credentials and skills remains at the core of this mission.

Here's to more such collaborations, and to building a future-ready workforce, one partnership at a time.
