What is an Associate Chartered Banker?

Associate Chartered Banker status is a globally recognised designation that develops essential banking expertise, practical skills, and ethical awareness. It enhances career prospects while demonstrating professionalism and commitment within the financial sector.

Pathways to Achieving Associate Chartered Banker Status

We offer two routes to achieve the Associate Chartered Banker designation, both designed to provide the same level of knowledge, skills, and industry recognition:

Route 1: Enrol in the Associate Chartered Banker Diploma

The Associate Chartered Banker Diploma (ACBD) is a comprehensive programme that develops and enhances the skills and knowledge essential for professional and responsible banking.

By completing this diploma, learners:

  • Build core technical expertise and practical competencies.
  • Earn the globally recognised Associate Chartered Banker designation.
  • Gain valuable industry recognition and support for career advancement.

This all-in-one pathway allows learners to enrol directly in the diploma and pay for all qualifications at once.

Route 2: Complete Required Certificates Individually

This flexible pathway enables learners to achieve Associate Chartered Banker status by completing four individual certificates. While learners follow the same curriculum as the diploma route, this option allows for step-by-step progression, paying for each qualification separately.

Upon completing the certificates, learners will:

  • Achieve the globally recognised Associate Chartered Banker designation.
  • Enhance their banking expertise and advance their careers.

Alternatively: Continue on an Existing Pathway

If you are already on our existing Associate Chartered Banker Pathway, you can continue progressing toward Associate status without switching to the new options.

This route is available only for those who have already completed one of our older qualifications and are on track to achieve Associate Chartered Banker status.


Candidates who have completed the JAIIB qualification with the Indian Institute of Banking and Finance (IIBF) can now have their achievements recognised through dedicated Professional Conversion Programmes to attain Associate Chartered Banker status. Learn more.
