DSI Integrity Program
Acting ethically and with integrity is essential for every DSI-certified professional. With the DSI Integrity Program, you not only demonstrate professional competence, but also that you act according to the highest ethical standards.
Structure and content
The program consists of two parts: the Integrity E-learning module and the workshop. Depending on the DSI registry for which you want to certify, you must successfully complete one or both components to be certified. The Integrity module is offered exclusively by NCI.
At the workshop you have a choice of 2 providers, NCI or The Ministry of Compliance (TMoC). Please choose a trainer before the workshop and check in advance if your employer has a preference.
Note: If you are a CFA Charterholder, or hold a CFA level 1 or VBA degree, the Workshop element is exempt. You then only need to take the E-learning.
