Dubai, United Arab Emirates – May 7, 2013
When Islamic finance meets entrepreneurship, Madinah Institute for Leadership and Entrepreneurship (MILE), the Muslim world's pre-eminent executive education institute, leads the way. Today MILE announced that it has selected Ethica Institute of Islamic Finance, the global leader in Islamic finance certification, as MILE's Knowledge Partner. Dr. Mohamed Mahmoud, Executive Director at MILE, said, "We are very excited to partner with Ethica. They bring an unparalleled combination of global reach, executive excellence, and authentic standardization that makes them the obvious choice as MILE's Knowledge Partner. MILE's 'High Performance Islamic Finance' (HPIF) program launches next month and we expect a sizable gathering of executives from across the globe to attend." Ethica's spokesperson said, "MILE reaches out to Muslim professionals across the world, including those looking at a career in Islamic finance but who do not know where to begin. With Ethica's certification programs now also offered through MILE, we hope to serve this community with the same excellence that MILE brings to leadership and entrepreneurship." MILE is focused on building leadership and entrepreneurial excellence in the Arab and Muslim world. By grooming tomorrow's leaders with the practical tools needed to succeed, the non-profit organization plays a fundamental role in the success of the region and beyond. With the overall slowdown in the banking world, many practitioners are now looking at entrepreneurial opportunities within the Islamic finance industry. The Ethica-MILE collaboration promises to offer these practitioners with the skills to make the transition into Islamic finance entrepreneurship. Ethica will be at the June 15-20 'High Performance Islamic Finance' (HPIF) program in Madinah where participants will receive special discounts to Ethica's award-winning Certified Islamic Finance Executive (CIFE) program.
