For employers
Employers can also request that DSI certify their employees. Having them registered shows you and your (potential) clients that they will be assisted by professionals who are familiar with the most pressing integrity-related dilemmas and the latest developments in the fields of skills and professional expertise.
A professional certified by DSI:
DSI only certifies employees of organisations that are DSI participants, so it is important for your organisation to register as a participant first. Your employees can then request a certification procedure. You can register your organisation as a DSI participant here. If you would like more information about being a DSI participant, please feel free to contact our Certification department.
DSI has 11 certification registers for your employees. See the DSI Certification overview for a list of registers of Certified Professionals. The overview offers information about each register’s contents, applicability and which accredited education providers offer Continuing Professional Education program and examinations for professionals.
Your employee’s first step towards DSI certification is earning the status of Candidate Certified Professional. The employee abides by the Code of Conduct, but has not yet satisfied all of the education and work experience requirements. You can find a more detailed description of the difference between a Certified Professional and a Candidate Certified Professional here.
If you employ DSI-certified professionals, you can also mention that fact in your business communications. That way, (potential) clients, prospects and supervisory bodies know that you place a high value on integrity and expertise in the financial sector, and that your employees meet the requirements stipulated by the ESMA.
