IMCA offers range of scholarships
The Investment Management Consultants Association (IMCA) is offering a range of scholarships within its Certified Investment Management (CIMA) program.
IMCA announced this week that the four scholarships on offer include the retail researchers, investment consultants and portfolio managers scholarship, the institutional investment consultants and researchers scholarship, and the fund executive scholarship.
Commenting on the scholarship offering, IMCA Australia chair Lorraine Berends described CIMA as a “short but intensive” program.
She said it was perfect for busy investment professionals.
“Not only does the program expand participants’ knowledge, it is a forum to discuss investment trends and test conventional wisdom with your peers in the investment industry,” she said.
Berends said IMCA now had a total of 130 CIMA graduates.
“We’re extremely proud of this achievement and look forward to welcoming new CIMAs into the fold,” Berends said.
