Testimonials
The AZEK Diplomas are accepted throughout Switzerland. I acquired the Certified International Wealth Manager Diploma and can prove my ability vis-à-vis my employer as well as towards the clients and other financial market participants. I highly recommend the program to everybody as it opens up new options for career development and expanding the personal network. In addition, the numerous events AZEK is offering serve as a platform to stay in contact with fellow students and make new acquaintances.
From project manager in marketing to team head in asset management. The AZEK was a career springboard for a new professional challenge. The AZEK training programs are highly renowned in the Swiss financial sector and supported me a lot in my professional development. I particularly appreciated the concept: broad and deep knowledge in finance and investment, taught by highly qualified lecturers. The practice-oriented content build now the basis of my daily work. Challenging and encouraging at the same time – this is AZEK.
I recommend the AZEK without reservation because graduates strongly benefit from the program. With the comprehensive training program I acquired knowledge across the topics related to investment both on a theoretical and practical level and it stimulated my reflection. In addition, I established new contacts and the diploma opens up new opportunities with employers. For all these reasons I consider to attend another AZEK program.
