AIB Correspondence Study Programs offer a flexible enrollment schedule, up to the minute training information and professional banking instruction making it one of the most effective ways to enhance your banking knowledge. When enrolling in an AIB correspondence course, the IBA will provide the textbook for the course and a set of practical exercises to periodically complete and return for grading. Completing all the exercises, taking the final examination under the direction of a bank supervisor and receiving a passing grade qualifies the student for AIB credit. All courses receive 3 AIB credit hours except where noted.
TUITION FEE
Tuition for standard correspondence courses is $249.00 for IBA members and $379.00 for non-IBA members.
TESTING-OUT FORMAT
All correspondence study courses are available in the testing-out format. Tuition for the testing-out format is $65.00 for IBA members and $99.00 for non-IBA members. Students are also required to purchase the corresponding text (see "Text Fee" above). This format is designed for financial institution employees with adequate education and industry work experience to undertake self-study and test out of an IBA correspondence study course. Each testing-out course requires that a final exam only be completed, however some courses also require a mid-term exam as well. The student becomes conversant with the subject by studying the text at their own pace. The average of the midterm and final exam grades is the overall course grade. A grade of ‘D’ or higher is required to receive credit.
