EBTN Triple E Accreditation
The European Banking & Financial
Services Training Association (EBTN)
is pleased to announce that the Retail
Banking Academy (UK) has been
awarded 3 Triple E accreditations. Meeting these Triple E requirements
has resulted in the RBA’s Retail
Banking qualifications being levelled
at Level 5 (RB II and RB III) and Level 4
(RB I) respectively.
The Triple E accreditations awarded
to the Retail Banking Academy’s
Retail Banking I (RB I), Retail Banking
II (RB II) and Retail Banking III (RB III)
qualifications recognise that these
qualifications have been designed
to meet the requirements of the
European Qualification Framework
(EQF), the European Credit System
for Vocational Education & Training
(ECVET) and the European Quality
Assurance Reference Framework
for Vocational Education & Training
(EQAVET). Michael Lafferty, chairman of the
Retail Banking Academy commented:
“RBA is delighted and honoured to
receive the Triple E accreditation from
EBTN. Retail is a distinctly different
field from corporate and wholesale
banking and will continue to be the
main source of bank profits worldwide
for the foreseeable future.”
RBA’s CEO Evelyn Hunter remarked
that “RBA’s initiative to secure the
Triple E accreditation demonstrates
our commitment to remain at the
forefront of educating Retail Bankers
worldwide to the highest ethical and
professional standards.”
Mariola Szymaska-Koszczyc, Chair
of EBTN’s Triple E Committee
stated: “Triple E Standard is a mark
of excellence which is achievable
and can be put in practice. That was
exactly our experience working with
RBA in the accreditation process. We
are happy and proud that together
we are building higher professional
standards of qualifications in financial
services in Europe and worldwide.”
