The IÉSEG School of Management, a member of Lille Catholic University, CISI Partner University status is unique in France. The IÉSEG-CISI programme offers students the opportunity to study for and sit key CISI professional qualifications, before finishing their degrees. This will offer these IÉSEG students the opportunity to further reinforce their professional skills, ensuring that they stand out from the crowd in a competitive recruitment market place.

Following a bespoke selection process, successful students on the School’s MSc in Investment Banking and Capital Markets programme, will be sponsored to sit, at a discounted fee, the CISI Level 3 International Introduction to Securities and Investment professional qualification.

Our new partnership with the CISI will help our students sharpen their technical skills and demonstrate excellent knowledge of financial instruments. By gaining the level 3 professional qualification, it will further allow them to contribute to the ever-growing CISI member community around the world.”
