There is also a self-paced eLearning version of the training available.

• “This is a tool that is fairly intuitive and you can feel that it has been tailored to the needs of your peers.
• Rather than finding a golden method to deliver information, it provides several types of info presentation and delivery, which you can customise as you go along.
• You can feel that the people behind it have considered information fatigue and are constantly doing their best to keep it diverse.
• The courses even carry a subtle note of ‘I know this info might not make much sense now, don’t worry, it will come up again in due context and you`ll map it properly then’.

Whether you are preparing for your existing role, training for future ones, starting in fintech or whether you`re already awesome at these, the UnaVista e-Learning Academy will give you that elusive ‘good student’ feeling.”
