Some professional milestones happen quietly. No big announcement. No dramatic career change. Just a decision to get better at what you do and commit to the process.

For Ankit Garg, a Deputy Manager at SBI Card based in Gurugram, pursuing the CFE certification was one of those decisions.

Working in a fast-paced financial environment means dealing with risk, controls, compliance, and constantly evolving fraud threats. Building a stronger understanding of fraud examination wasn't just about earning another credential. It was about gaining practical knowledge that could be applied in the real world.

Like many working professionals, Ankit was looking for a learning experience that would go beyond textbooks and theory. The challenge wasn't finding study material. It was finding the right guidance, a structured approach, and mentors who could simplify complex concepts without making them feel overwhelming.

That search eventually led him to Academy of Internal Audit (AIA). What stood out was the balance between exam preparation and practical understanding. The CFE certification covers a wide range of topics, and having experienced mentors who could connect concepts with real-world situations made a significant difference throughout the journey. The structured learning path, focused sessions, and continuous support helped transform preparation into a much more engaging experience.

Here's what Ankit shared in his Google Review:

"I had an excellent learning experience with the Academy of Internal Audit(AIA) while preparing for the CFE certification. The course content was well-structured, comprehensive, and highly relevant to the examination as well as practical fraud examination concepts. A special thanks to Puneet Sir for his exceptional teaching style. His ability to explain complex topics in a simple and practical manner made learning enjoyable and helped me build a strong understanding of the concepts. His guidance, real-world examples, and exam-focused approach were invaluable throughout my preparation. I would also like to appreciate Sadaf for her outstanding coordination and support. She was always responsive, organized, and proactive in addressing queries, scheduling sessions, and ensuring a smooth learning experience for all students. I highly recommend the AIA to anyone pursuing the CFE certification or looking to enhance their knowledge in fraud examination and risk management. Thank you to the entire team for their dedication and support."

The journey to becoming a Certified Fraud Examiner requires commitment, consistency, and the willingness to keep learning. Ankit approached that journey with focus and determination, and the result speaks for itself.

Congratulations, Ankit Garg, on achieving your CFE certification. Wishing you continued success as you apply your expertise to create stronger fraud risk management practices and make an even greater impact in your professional career.
