A priority market for Canada, India is the fastest growing major economy in the world. The two allies have long-established bilateral relations built upon shared traditions of democracy, pluralism and strong interpersonal connections. Enhanced education and skills training, as well as collaboration between Canadian and Indian educational institutions, are at the top of these priorities.

Seneca College, Canada’s leading Polytechnique, is at the forefront of helping leaders and institutions understand the technologies and innovations that are changing industries and shaping new economies. As one of India’s top Centre of Excellence, The National Institute of Financial Management (NIFM) is specialized in building the capacity of professionals in the fields of Public Policy, Financial Management and other emergent topics.

The leadership commitment to excellence shortened the cultural distance between both institutions and, eventually, diverse working groups collaborated to the betterment of both institutions. A wonderful long-lasting partnership was forged.

Seneca College and NIFM developed a platform for interaction, knowledge exchange, and education. For past two years, over 150 Government of India Officers have received training at Seneca. Both institutions continue to achieve remarkable things through customized programs on contemporary financial management topics such as Fin-Tech: Innovation in Finance, Cybercrime, Anti Money Laundering, Fraud Detection and Prevention, Cryptocurrency and Blockchain.
