As a treasury professional with several years of experience, the Certified Corporate Treasurer VDT® was the decisive step for me to raise my expertise to a more strategic level. The programme not only teaches solid fundamentals, but also delves into complex topics such as treasury operations, risk management and financing strategies at university level - in a practical and well-founded manner. For anyone who wants to strengthen their expertise and really make a difference in treasury, this programme is a clear recommendation.

The Certified Corporate Treasurer VDT® programme offers a strong professional basis and gets to the heart of key treasury topics. This is why the CCT is the standard training programme for young treasurers in our Group - and a clear recommendation for me. What makes the programme particularly valuable is the exchange with colleagues from other companies: real practice, honest insights, new ideas.

 

 

As a participant in the first Certified Corporate Treasurer VDT® course over 20 years ago, the programme was a real milestone for me. It laid my professional foundation in treasury and still contributes to my work in corporate finance & treasury today. The CCT stands for substance, practical relevance and a strong network that lasts far beyond the course.
