In order to respond to the demand for professionals in the Luxembourg financial sector, the Chamber organises the second edition of the training programme ‘Introduction to the Luxembourg financial market’. This programme enables candidates to acquire the necessary skills to work in the banking sectors, the fund and insurance industry and, more generally, in the Luxembourg financial sector.

The training offers a consolidation of the fundamental principles of finance and provides both theoretical and operational knowledge, adapted to the Luxembourg context to ensure a good adaptation to the labour market. It will take place on a face-to-face basis from 1 to 12 September in Luxembourg at the Chambre des Métiers Luxembourg (2 Circuit de La Foire Internationale, 1347 Kirchberg Luxembourg), and at the end of the course a 6-month contract in a company in the financial sector will be offered.

Applications for admission should be sent to luxemburgo@e-camara.com, including a duly completed application form, CV, motivation letter, copy of the diploma with the subjects taken and the corresponding marks before 11 April at 12:00 (Brussels time).

The training is organised over two weeks, with 4 hours per day. The selection procedure allows for the selection of 20 participants, so the sessions will be interactive, offering hands-on experience with real work scenarios. The lecturers will be renowned professionals from the Luxembourg financial sector.

The training will be helded in English.
