Can your courses be customized to address the exact needs of our organization?
Definitely! We work closely with our clients to understand their business goals and customize our deliverables to meet and exceed those goals. To meet and exceed client expectations, we have enhanced our in-house technologies. Our depth ranges from the most simplistic user-friendly interface allowing you to rapidly generate and distribute your own content, to the most dynamic interface allowing you to build engaging rich media, application simulations, and more. Our courses are designed and maintained to provide the optimal building blocks for your targeted training needs. Banker's Academy courses can be combined with your specific content to create just the right curriculum for your organization.
How are courses developed?
In order to have the most complete, standardized, current, audited, relevant, and up-to-date content in the market, Banker's Academy has established an in-house team of banking system specialists, business intelligence specialists, business process specialists, certified technical trainers, compliance experts, content management system (CMS) specialists, database programmers, e-Learning authors, graphics design specialists, instructional design experts, LMS developers, localization specialists, rapid e-Learning specialists, SharePoint specialists, subject matter experts (SMEs), and visual studio developers.
Courses are developed internally by our experienced staff on an ongoing basis. If content that does not exist in our comprehensive library is identified by our sales team or Banking Sector Subject Matter Expert (SME), the course then goes through an industry-leading instructional design process established by Banker's Academy CLO, Dr. Katherine Pang, and is then developed. All courses transition through a quality assurance and evaluation phase before the end solution is delivered to the client.

Courses can be delivered in a variety of ways. Our most popular methods are e-Learning, instructor-led training (ILT), and blended. Our e-Learning is a self-paced, computer-based format that allows users to take our training online. ILT is offered onsite at your organization or at an outside training facility. Blended is a combination of ILT and e-Learning materials.
How often are courses updated?
Date-sensitive and legal content, such as regulatory updates and newly enacted laws, are monitored, reviewed, and revised by our developers on a regular basis. Content is updated and revamped often to enhance participants' learning and comprehension of the key learning points covered in our training programs. All content is managed by a full-time staff who can quickly and easily update all programs to reflect any pertinent changes.
