- How is FIRST FINANCE responding to the financial crisis?
As finance professionals, we may feel as though we have lost our bearings when faced with an economic backdrop which does not seem to follow the traditional rules. FIRST FINANCE enables you to react to this financial crisis by helping renew both your personal effectiveness and your professional skills.
FIRST FINANCE supports you in two ways:
- Optimise your technical skills thanks to 50 new training courses which respond to the current situation and recent financial innovations. All our training courses have also been updated through the prism of risk prevention and control. The impact of the financial crisis on products, techniques and business areas within Finance has now been fully integrated.
- Improve your leadership skills and personal effectiveness through training courses for personal development designed and led by Finance professionals, all of whom possess recognised expertise in behavioural coaching.
- What does the term Global training partner mean for FIRST FINANCE?
FIRST FINANCE adopts the mentality of “global partner” when working with its clients. This means that we deploy management skills programmes worldwide for a large number of clients with a great deal of uniformity in delivery, while at the same time taking into account specific local characteristics with the support of our offices in Paris, London, New York and Hong Kong. The “global training partner” mentality is also demonstrated in our ability to offer training programmes in all areas of Banking and Finance, from Beginner to Expert level.
- How does the FIRST FINANCE website respond to the expectations of Finance professionals?
