Key Summary
About: Advanced CIFE™ Financial Analysis (ACIFE™) is Ethica’s advanced certification for experienced Islamic bankers or those with an AAOIFI-compliant foundational course. It covers the common calculations used inside an Islamic bank and assumes working knowledge of CIFE terms; if you lack that, do the CIFE first. The institution states it believes interest is the root cause of many global problems. The self-paced programme can be completed in 3 weeks or 4 months, and you receive 8 months of access.
Career Outcomes: Graduates move into Islamic finance as Islamic banker, Shariah compliance analyst or financial analyst in Islamic banks, regulators, consultancies.
NOTE: If you are an experienced Islamic banker or have completed an AAOIFI-compliant foundational course from another institute you may pursue Ethica's Advanced CIFE™ Financial Analysis (ACIFE™). However, for those who do not possess a working knowledge of the core Islamic banking products covered in the CIFE™ certification, we recommend doing the CIFE™ first.
The award-winning ACIFE Financial Analysis is Ethica’s advanced certification in the most commonly performed calculations used inside an Islamic bank. Know these and you will be ahead of most bankers already inside an Islamic bank. The ACIFE Financial Analysis assumes a working knowledge of the terms used in the CIFE. For those not familiar with the Islamic banking products covered in the CIFE certification, we recommend doing the CIFE first. Conveniently self-paced, you complete it in 3 weeks or 4 months. We give you 8 months of easy access..
