Opportunities with the NSAFS
Projects
The National Skills Academy for Financial Services (NSAFS) currently has a number of funded projects running to support and complement the core work we do. These projects help us:
- improve our overall service by extending our delivery
- improve the performance of our training provider network for the benefit of financial services sector employers and our learners
- reach the consumer by promoting financial capability.
Our current projects are :
-
Financial capability
Funded by the Financial Services Authority (FSA), we have a three-phased project running throughout the 2009/10 academic year to deliver financial education to learners in further education colleges across the country. This project forms part of the Money for LiFE initiative, the further education project of the FSA’s national strategy for financial capability.
-
Pathfinder Knowledge Transfer Project
The ultimate goal of the Knowledge Transfer Pathfinder project was to ensure UK financial services businesses can benefit from the specialist expertise of further education colleges and training providers in the future.

European Social Fund
Research has identified financial services skill shortages in managerial and supervisory levels across London. This project aims to close this gap by delivering Level 3 management qualifications to SMEs developing existing managers without the requisite skills, or those who have the potential to move into higher level management positions.
