Certificate in IR

The Investor Relations Society CIR qualification provides investor relations practitioners with the opportunity to demonstrate that they have the required factual knowledge to undertake their responsibilities competently, especially from a regulatory perspective.

“Accreditation in the form of a CIR from the pre-eminant European IR society brings with it an exceptional grounding in this ever more complex discipline. This broad and practical foundation will be a major attraction to employers looking to fill key posts in this crucial area.”
