The Bank considers the programme an important element of its ongoing efforts to enhance the performance and skills of its employees by providing them with world-class learning and development opportunities.
In all, 20 select staff received their certificates at a recognition dinner held at the Bank’s head office in the Commercialbank Plaza.
The Omega Credit Skills Development Programme enables bank staff to demonstrate high levels of technical expertise, covering all aspects of commercial lending and financial analysis which will help Commercialbank continually match the high standards required to maintain solid asset quality.
Commercialbank Group CEO Andrew C Stevens said: “Our people are key contributors to the success of the Bank. We operate not only in a highly competitive environment but also in very challenging times and well trained employees who make a positive daily contribution through well considered lending decisions are a strong asset to Commercialbank and its asset portfolio.
Stevens also asserted that Commercialbank is keen on investing in employee training programmes that go a long way in enhancing each employee’s knowledge and skills and thereby equip them to improve the Bank’s bottom line performance, consistently.
Corporate Banking head Steve Mullins said: “Commercialbank is committed to giving world-class training to ensure that its employees are equipped to make the right decisions for both the customers and the Bank.
“Passing Omega demonstrates that our staff can meet the standards required to maintain a healthy loan portfolio and further understand and anticipate ongoing customer needs. Passing Omega is a great achievement and provides a solid platform for world class banking ability.”
Omega Performance Corporation is a leader in world-wide credit training and is the performance benchmark for this type of computer-based credit learning. .
