JSE e-Campus and UTECH Signs Memorandum of Understanding

• The Jamaica Stock Exchange e-Campus (JSE e-Campus) and the University of Technology Jamaica (UTECH) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on November 22, 2024, at the Jamaica Stock Exchange (JSE) to collaborate to fulfil the training needs of the financial services sector.
• The MOU involves joint courses, progress reports, curriculum strengthening and articulation, staff and student exchange, human resource development, public education joint seminars, conferences, and publications, among others. It is expected to last for three (3) years with the option for renewal.
• Both JSE and UTech have agreed that within the context of a globalised environment, where it is imperative to collaborate to compete and make use of common resources successfully, there is a need for a coordinated, and rationalised approach to dealing with training issues affecting the financial services sector.
• Dr. Marlene Street Forrest, Managing Director of the JSE, stated “We know that coordination will be critical to our success, and as we are committed to the success of this relationship, we will find it through our Steering Committee… By working together, the JSE e-Campus and Utech will create opportunities for learners, at all levels, to contribute meaningfully to Jamaica’s human and economic development.”
