TANZANIA Institute of Bankers (TIOB) has embarked on a two-month programme to collect stakeholders’ views on relevance of courses offered.
The programme launched yesterday
involved collecting members and other stakeholders views via the
institute’s website and email. It will be closed at the end of
September.
TIOB Executive Director Patrick Mususa
said since the institute offered professional banking courses they want
to gauge themselves on relevance of the programmes offered and if there
was a need to perfect them.
“The institute sets offered course
alongside protruding industry innovation especially on digital space
based on governing laws and regulation,” Mr Mususa said.
The institute has a mandate of promoting
the banking profession by providing professional banking education and
skills development to bank staff in the country.
Meanwhile, TIOB Registrar Saad Banzi,
said out of 800 candidates who sat for examination in May 115 passed,
the examinees where banks staff and fresh university graduates.
The institute has over 15,000 members
coming from almost all banks in the country. The country has over 50
banks. The new membership application begins again this November.
TIOB was established after banking
sector liberalisation in 1993. In the formative stages, the aim was to
alleviate the acute shortage of professional and efficient career
bankers.
