Located at the Singapore Management University, the Financial IT Academy @SMU (FITA) is the first-of-its-kind academy in Singapore set up to support the professional training needs of the financial services industry. On 28 May 2013, SMU was appointed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and the Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA) as the lead provider to design and deliver quality training programmes for Technology & Operations (T&O) professionals in the financial services industry in Singapore. FITA's vision is to help strengthen Singapore's position as a leading global financial hub by increasing the talent pool and improving the quality of financial IT professionals in the financial services sector. Utilising a flexible curriculum designed and delivered by SMU faculty members and industry practitioners and partners, FITA focuses on equipping mid-career professionals and fresh graduates with useful and relevant skills, knowledge and capabilities thereby laying a stronger foundation for and increasing the number of IT professionals for deployment in the financial services sector. FITA is working very closely with the Institute of Banking and Finance (IBF), IDA, banks and IT vendors in this national initiative. It operates in a very unique space offering highly integrated Banking and Technology courses for IT Professionals in Banking and Finance, compared to what is available in the market place where courses tend not to be highly coupled.
