SPJIMR, a leading Indian business school, and NIIT Limited have partnered to launch a Professional Certificate in FinTech Operations. This program is designed to prepare students, graduates, and early-career professionals for roles within India's rapidly expanding digital financial services ecosystem. The curriculum emphasizes technology fluency and the application of tools like APIs and AI from a business and operations perspective, without requiring coding skills.
The BFSI sector in India is undergoing significant digital transformation, with projections indicating the creation of nearly 2.5 lakh permanent jobs by 2030. Notably, almost half of these new roles are expected to emerge from Tier-II and Tier-III cities. This initiative aims to bridge the growing talent gap in this dynamic industry.
Participants will gain practical skills mapped to roles such as payments operations, KYC/AML, credit operations, and business analysis. The program includes placement assistance, offering job selection opportunities within 120 days for successful candidates. SPJIMR and NIIT will jointly issue the Professional Certificate upon completion of the 164-hour hybrid program.
