CIPFM

NEWSLETTER

Welcome and thank you for your

interest in Chartered Institute of

Professional Financial Managers

(CIPFM). Originally founded in

England in 1992 as a professional

institute then in 2009 as a branch

in Southern Africa, CIPFM is an

institute that focuses on profes-

sional development both locally

and internationally.

With us one is bound to enjoy the

convenience of eLearning mean-

ing you can study from anywhere

and anytime. As we look to the

future one thing is certain –

knowledge will be a key resource

and will be highly on demand

within Zimbabwe and the world

at large. Our task as CIPFM is to

help generate ideas that will bene-

fit our economy and society as

well as to educate and train peo-

ple to work in fields where they

will be valued both for their spe-

cialized knowledge, and for their

ability to communicate and solve

problems. To complete these

tasks CIPFM offers a variety of

learning, teaching methods and

resources which provide the indi-

vidual student with what he or she

needs to complete a program of

study on a non-residential basis.

What is right for one person may

well be inappropriate for another.

The programs are therefore tailor-

made to take into account what

each student already knows, and

his or her present and future

needs. We also take seriously our

responsibility to economic growth

and local employment.

Through doing so individuals’

lives have been changed, are be-

ing changed and will forever be

changed for the better at CIPFM.

A great example of how CIPFM

has made a difference in individu-

als is the ever increasing percent-

age of students who either get

employed or promoted after com-

pleting their studies with us.

Current students, staff and alumni

have undoubtedly built the repu-

tation of CIPFM and I am confi-

dent that CIPFM people of today

and tomorrow will add to this rep-

utation in the future.

We look forward to welcoming

you at CIPM

The short course in security fo-

rensics and loss control manage-

ment that Chartered Institute of

Professional Financial Managers

(CIPFM) recently introduced has

commenced with ZIMCAN Secu-

rity officers.

Security forensics and loss con-

trol management is a course that

aims at creating loss control of-

ficers who knows how to tackle

the 21st Century type of criminal

and crimes.

It also aims at creating security

personnel who know how to con-

duct their internal investigations,

how to prevent loss of property,

resources, time, lives etc.

ZIMCAN Chief Security Officer,

Mr. Mundanga said this course is

very beneficial to their organisa-

tion as some officers did not

know how to execute security

science and loss control manage-

ment.

“From now going forward I trust

they know what to do and how to

do it.

“They are benefiting a lot from

each and every aspect of this

course, I see this taking us far as

an organisation and our clients in

minimizing loss and hopefully

increasing the profits”, comment-

ed Chief Mundanga.

This is one of many courses that

CIPFM offers and after the ZIM-

CAN officers complete their cer-

tificate, CIPFM will continue of-

fering this course to all security

companies in Zimbabwe so as to

improve the security sector in the

country.

The course is targeting security

officers, security personnel,

school leavers and loss control

officers.

Security Forensics and loss con-

trol management can be complet-

ed within a very short period of

time and it is very affordable

with a flexible payment plan.
