What formal training will I receive?
A curriculum, covering over 30 topics in disciplines related to regulation, leadership, accounting and law forms the basis of the training in the first year of the TRL Programme. In the second year, Associates will be sponsored to complete industry qualifications such as Risk in Financial Services and Islamic Finance from the Chartered Institute of Securities and Investment (UK).
Can I undertake further study?
Yes, we encourage you to undertake relevant further academic or professional qualifications.
What kind of working culture does the DFSA have?
The DFSA offers a good work-life balance. A working day is nine hours (either 8am to 5pm or 9am to 6pm at the discretion of your Manager), including an hour for lunch - Monday to Friday. At certain times, however, you will be expected to work longer hours in order to meet organisational needs.
What level of commitment is required?
A successful applicant must demonstrate a commitment to complete the full two-year Programme, which will be challenging and rewarding. Your continued participation will be subject to satisfactory performance, to be evaluated through processes of continuous review and through case studies and professional qualifications.

Can I take my masters and then enrol in the TRL Programme?
