Diploma and Certificate Options

Getting started with your CFT education is as easy as registering for your first course. There are no registration fees or application fees and CFT tuition is oftentimes employer paid (please confirm your company’s tuition policy with your manager or supervisor). We suggest beginning your studies with the Principles of Banking course. This course is a requirement of each diploma and certificate, and will give you a complete overview of the fundamentals of banking.

The Center for Financial Training currently offers thirty-one (31) industry-recognized diplomas and certificates, with concentrations in key areas of the financial services industry. The learning tracks are designed for employees of banks, credit unions, and other financial service companies.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: In order to keep pace with the ever-changing financial services landscape, it is necessary for CFT to revise the course requirements of certain diplomas and certificates from time to time. Students who have already begun the process of completing the requirements for a specific CFT diploma or certificate can continue to do so under the previous guidelines.

Diploma Requirements and Eligibility:

  • All required and elective courses must be completed with a passing grade (D or better) and the student’s overall grade point average (GPA) must be 2.00 or higher.
  • All courses must carry a minimum of 2.00 credits unless otherwise noted in the specific diploma and certificate requirements.
