The Nigerian Capital Market Institute, the training subsidiary of the Securities and Exchange Commission, has reaffirmed its commitment to market development and investor education with the launch of its 2025 training calendar.

Announcing the development in Abuja over the weekend, the Managing Director of NCMI, Tunde Kamali, described the initiative as a step toward enhancing professional development and fostering lifelong learning opportunities for capital market operators.

Kamali explained that the training calendar is designed to cover all aspects of the capital market while incorporating general interest modules as added value for participants.

“The new calendar emphasises flexibility, inclusivity, and skill-focused learning, featuring hands-on training sessions and e-learning modules tailored to the diverse needs of participants,” he said.

He commended the collaborative efforts of stakeholders, including market operators, trade groups, academia, and the board of the institute, led by SEC’s Director-General, Emomotimi Agama, for their contributions to the comprehensive planning process.

“This training calendar is a testament to the Commission’s commitment to fostering growth and innovation in the capital market,” Kamali noted. “By equipping stakeholders with the right knowledge, we aim to build a more capable workforce ready to embrace emerging market trends and innovations.”

Kamali added that the initiative aligns with the institute’s mission to lead in education and professional development, empowering participants to thrive in a dynamic and ever-changing market environment.
