SCA-mandated qualifications and SCA-approved CPD

We have worked with the UAE Securities & Commodities Authority (SCA) since 2009. SCA mandates specific CISI examinations for specific roles in the capital market sector, providing a qualification pathway for licensing purposes.

SCA has approved many of our Professional Refresher elearning modules as part of their mandatory CPD programme. The SCA will grant CPD per recognised module up to a maximum of five hours of e-learning and five hours of attending webinars and events.

From time to time, SCA approves CISI events for CPD purposes. These events will be clearly marked in our events calendar.

The mix of Arabic and English qualifications continues to hold appeal for the Middle East as the markets develop. Working with our local office, we also have an established National Advisory Council in the UAE which plays a vital role in advising the Institute on national education and local continuing professional development (CPD) requirements. It is headed by Richard Stockdale, Chartered FCSI, Trustee and Director of the CISI and President of the CISI's UAE Regional Board.
