For many experienced professionals, the decision to pursue an international certification comes from a desire to deepen expertise while continuing to grow in their careers. Ankit Pankaj Shingala, a Senior Manager at Abbott in Mumbai, chose to pursue the Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE) Certification to enhance his knowledge of fraud detection, investigation techniques, and financial crime prevention.

In leadership roles, time is often the biggest constraint. Balancing professional responsibilities with exam preparation can feel challenging without a learning system that supports flexibility. While exploring options for the CFE Course, Ankit was looking for a program that allowed him to study at his own pace without compromising the quality of learning.

That search led him to the Academy of Internal Audit (AIA).

What immediately stood out about AIA was its learner-friendly approach designed specifically for working professionals. The course structure allowed students to study anytime and from anywhere, making it possible to integrate learning seamlessly into a busy schedule.

Under the mentorship of Prof. Puneet Garg, the preparation journey became more engaging and insightful. His teaching style simplified complex fraud examination concepts while keeping the focus on practical application. Along with the mentorship, the efficiency and responsiveness of the AIA team ensured that students always felt supported during their preparation.

For Ankit, the CFE journey was not just about clearing an exam. It was about strengthening his professional understanding of fraud risk management and developing a sharper analytical perspective.

He shared his experience in a Google Review:

"AiA has been instrumental in helping me complete CFE course. Brilliance of Prof Puneet Garg along with efficient and dynamic team makes learning very easy. They have scaled up education to the next level by ensuring that working professionals can study anytime and anywhere.
 Thanking AiA again for their immense contribution towards by CFE journey."

Congratulations Ankit Pankaj Shingala on earning the CFE Certification. Your commitment to continuous professional development is truly inspiring.
