» CCAP Design

The course kick starts with a special six-week intensive finance boot-camp. Following this, participants are allocated to business units of CRISIL where they work four days a week - from Monday to Thursday. Regular classes are held on Fridays and Saturdays. The learning and growth path of the participants is closely monitored to ensure exposure to opportunities that will facilitate their career progression.

The programme has been designed keeping in mind domestic and global business needs, and after thoroughly analyzing the existing curriculum of MBA, CA, CFA, FRM, and ICWA programmes. CCAP ensures that each participant is capable of understanding the basics of finance and over the course of the programme, develops an indepth understanding of financial concepts. This will enable him/her to undertake analytical assignments not just at CRISIL but elsewhere in the industry as well.
