Aigul Kazbekova, Project Manager at the AIFC Academy, noted:
“Minor programmes enable students to quickly adapt to the dynamic demands of the financial market. We provide not just theory, but practice-oriented tools that will give graduates from Ust-Kamenogorsk a significant advantage in employment. Our goal is to build a bridge between academic foundations and real business, and our partnership with S. Amanzholov East Kazakhstan University is an important step in developing a talent pool for Kazakhstan’s new economy.”
Among the minor programs are courses such as “Derivative Securities – Options,” “Asset Management,” “Financial Market Regulation,” and “International Commercial Dispute Resolution.” The study of these disciplines provides EKU students with additional opportunities to expand their professional skills in the financial sector.
