The Professional Qualifications Framework (PQF) provides clear pathways for career development and professional recognition through to chartered status.

The Professional Diploma in Banking & Finance (PDipB&F) offers a flexible choice of industry recognised qualifications and is designed to support those in management, graduate and higher apprentice roles.

To achieve the Professional Diploma you will need to complete two specialist components at Level 4 or 5 in addition to the compulsory Level 5 Professionalism, Conduct & Ethics qualification. The components are structured into streams but any component can be taken with the credits being recognised towards the required total.

Study at this level is flexible and aimed at providing immediate practical relevance in the workplace. The qualifications included within this stage support career pathways in retail and consumer banking, or business and commercial banking roles.
