DERRY/LONDONDERRY: FinTrU celebrates pilot training initiative success
On Monday, FinTrU celebrated the success of a new innovative schools' training initiative at the Guildhall in Derry/Londonderry. Part of the day’s events, attended by Catherine McGuinness (Chair of Policy, City of London Corporation) was to mark the end of our pilot CISI Level 2 Foundation Financial Services programme.
FinTrU CEO Darragh McCarthy and North West Executive Director Greg McCann welcomed pupils from Castlederg High School, who represented the 19 students from four schools in the North West area who had passed the inaugural programme.
Greg said: “The pilot programme has gone incredibly well. Thanks to its success, we are currently working with Council representatives to roll out the programme to another 10 schools in the Derry City and Strabane Council area.”
The event was hosted by City Mayor Graham Warke.
