Zenith Bank (Ghana) Ltd has taken a groundbreaking step in bridging the gap between theoretical and practical learning for tertiary students studying Banking and Finance by establishing the first-ever Banking Clinic at the Kumasi Technical University (KsTU) in the Ashanti Region.
This novel project serves as a Banking Simulation and Training Centre where students will be given practical skills in the various aspects of banking operations.
The state-of-the-art simulated banking hall has been designed to replicate a standard Zenith Bank branch, complete with all essential departments and equipment found in a typical banking hall - customer service and Funds Transfer/Head of Operations desks, cash and teller points, an office for the branch manager and a relationship manager, money counting machines, computers, an electronic safe to represent a vault, a flat screen TV for projection of treasury rates and adverts on the Bank' s products and services, mock displays of all regulatory requirements such as the Ghana Deposit Protection Corporation membership certificate, fire certificate, public notices on tax evasion and other money laundering practices, among others.
The facility is also equipped with two air conditioning units, fans and many more to make learning conducive.
