WISE by IFINITY is a transformative talent development programme designed to bridge the gap between university education and the fast-evolving world of banking and financial technology. Focused on empowering young tech and business professionals, WISE delivers hands-on, industry-aligned training across core banking systems, with a strong foundation in platforms like Temenos Transact, Finastra, IBM, and WSO2.
WISE isn’t just a training bootcamp; it’s an ecosystem. Through strategic partnerships with top universities and financial institutions, it grooms future-ready consultants by placing them directly into live banking implementation projects. Learners are mentored by seasoned professionals and exposed to real-world business modules like Lending, Treasury, TPH, and API frameworks, equipping them with the tools and confidence to make a lasting impact from day one.
By combining classroom instruction, expert mentoring, and real-time deployments, WISE nurtures raw talent into globally capable banking tech professionals ready to lead digital transformation across regions like Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Bangladesh, and the UK.
WISE was born from a simple but powerful belief that the next generation of banking talent doesn’t need to be found overseas; it can be built right here, from the ground up. As the demand for digital transformation in banking grows, we see both a challenge and an opportunity: to nurture young minds, equip them with essential skills, and provide them with a platform to thrive.
Through hands-on training, mentorship, and real project experience, WISE helps young professionals step confidently into the world of core banking. It’s how we build capability, create meaningful careers, and grow our business in a way that uplifts people along the way.
Our fresh graduates tell our story better than anyone. Here’s what they think about learning and working as a WISE.
Our vision has always been to lead the invisible banking revolution, one where technology becomes seamless, and talent becomes the true differentiator. The WISE programme brings that vision to life by investing in the next generation of banking technology professionals.
We’re not just bridging the gap between education and industry; we’re building an ecosystem where high-potential youth are groomed, mentored, and deployed into complex transformation projects across the region. WISE is our commitment to purpose-driven growth: empowering local talent to shape global impact.
