The BIAN certifications mean that it’s another milestone to my professional development, to be recognized in terms of having some expertise in the BIAN framework. It’s also a portable skill that I can carry with me and it’s applicable to any financial industry. Members but also vendors that are partnering with the financial industry. I decided to go for the certification because it is a standard and it is portable.

What is BIAN training?

BIAN training is a 2-day course that teaches you how to use the BIAN banking architecture standard, which is a new way of modelling banking capabilities, APIs, and microservices. BIAN stands for Banking Industry Architecture Network, and it is a global network of banks, software vendors, and service providers that collaborate to create a common framework for banking interoperability.
