‘AI and big data’ is the top-ranked “skill on the rise” – with the World Economic Forum forecasting a net 87% increase in demand by 2030. The recent wave of GenAI tools and LLMs has led to a dramatic skills gap in financial data, digital, and AI across the financial services industry, that cannot be solved solely via recruitment.

Established in 2019, FDP Charter has been designed as a unique professional designation to develop & certify AI, data, and analytics skills. Originally aligned to the investments industry, today’s FDP curriculum is suitable for all roles that seek patterns in financial data, and/or make decisions based on it.

Read on here for a preview of FDP Corporate, a new partnership with Alpha Development to deliver the FDP as a solution for financial services organizations to develop, certify, and embed Financial Data & AI skills for the modern AI era.
