FAQ
  • I have not had three years experience in Finance yet, can I apply to MEBF?
  • Yes, you can but it will be harder as the priority is given to candidates having already a good experience in Finance; however, if you have a very good experience in a specialised field in Finance (even inferior to 3 years), your application is likely to be of interest for the CFVG. If you have no experience in Finance, the MBA might meet your requirements better as it will allow you to obtain a basic knowledge in Finance the first year and to specialize as you wish the second year.
