CISI School Registration Event: 14th September 2016
The Education Committee held an open evening in Rathbone Hall for Year 12 students in the Liverpool Area to find out more information about the CISI Introduction to Investment programme.
Rob Shutt, our Education Secretary opened the event outlining our vision for the programme,followed by Anne Chisholm (Regional Education Development Liaison Executive) who discussed careers in Investment Management and the qualification in more detail.
Paul Loughlin and Joel Carter, both from Rathbones, brought the qualification to life, with Paul talking about the industry’s passion for supporting young people and Joel talking about his experience as an apprentice.
We were delighted to welcome back Haris Ellahi, who completed the CISI: Introduction to Investments qualification in June this year, and goes on to start a Level 4 (foundation degree equivalent) Investment Analyst Apprenticeship at Mercers in October. We wish Haris all the best in the future.
Afterwards, there was a Q&A and networking session where parents and students could talk first hand to a range of people in the industry, with most of the North West investment firms represented. We are pleased to report that student numbers have been strong and we have managed to recruit some very intelligent and driven young people into the programme.
