how DID THE FINTRU FINANCIAL SERVICES ACADEMY PREPARE YOU FOR A CAREER IN FINANCIAL SERVICES? 

​

Coming from a History and Politics background, the FinTrU Financial Services Academy gave me the necessary knowledge to become familiar with the Financial Services industry. It also gave me the confidence to work with our Tier One Investment Bank clients and prepared me for a career in a professional environment at FinTrU.
