Who design the courses? Finance Practitioners or Shariah Experts?

Islamic Financial System is not a system of ‘practitioners’ only. Each financial law requires Shariah authenticity, before it is approved for practices. Once approved, the financial practice requires regular monitoring by Shairah Experts. The study material provided by AIMS is designed mutually by the team of Shariah Experts as well as Financial Practitioners, who are highly qualified in both areas.

Participants' Comments

The diversity of practical knowledge & theory modules at AIMS, makes them different from other institutions. I enrolled at AIMS after completing my MBA. During study of my first course of this certificate, I particularly enjoyed history, sources & approach of Islamic Economical system - provided by Islam 1400 years ago for the establishment of Financial System according to today's life. There are excellent educational resources available at AIMS. On completing my certificate, I easily got an opportunity in an Islamic Investment company in USA. I found this an invaluable experience & great insight.

AIMS provides an excellent opportunity to learn Islamic Financial System & manage Islamic Banking. CIFE training at AIMS is full of knowledge, and explains a best way to practice Islamic Banking and Finance. I have worked with many professionals in Islamic Finance industry, (and as per my personal experience, most of the working professionals do not understand the technicalities of the subject). CIFE certification gave me an understanding of real Islamic Banking and right way to solve the technical problems. This is taking my position upward, unlike others.
