...1. Introduction ICMA’s Primary Market Certificate (formerly known as the IPMA Diploma) is a second level qualification intended for persons working in the origination, syndication and transaction management areas of investment banks or securities houses. It is also a valuable qualification for capital markets lawyers looking to expand their understanding of the workings of the primary markets and for those employed in institutions that may be looking to raise funds in the international capital markets. The Programme is most suited to those in the early stages of focussing on primary market activities, but is open to anyone who would benefit from a more complete knowledge of the debt primary markets. This unique certificate programme examines the entire life cycle of bond issuance, from considering the financing choices through to the closing of transactions in the marketplace. While the course examines the theoretical principles underpinning the markets and the instruments and financing techniques that are available, emphasis is placed on interpreting and using that knowledge in practical case studies. In addition, due to the dynamic nature of the primary markets, the programme emphasises current market practice and much use is made of market practitioners to discuss key areas. Candidates who gain this qualification therefore will have all the requisite tools to add value now to their company’s activities in the Primary Markets. As a second-level qualification...

Management commitment and communications The management teams leadership and communication, specifically wit the IT department, resulted in helping the Columbus Project fail. Had senior management clearly communicated from the start that the project was a survival issue, the results may have born strong leadership and follow through with the IT Department. C While the topic is an internal based investigation, I still see the end user as the customers of the bank. The Columbus Project was supposed to be overseen by the managers to primarily make banking easier and more accessible for their customers. The service was to be upgraded to instant, seamless, and efficient, with over 100 million invested towards customer satisfaction. A Management and IT played the most critical role in the communication process, or lack there of, for the implementation of the project. It was clear as to management’s level of involvement in a quote from an IT member, “My manager lets me set my own deadlines, he doesn’t understand what I do”. It showed Management lacked any IT savvy for a project of this magnitude. T The inputs in this scenario would be management’s commitments and communications to the IT team; and thus the out puts would be the results from the IT department that would drive the project forward. Hindrance in the output would be the example of de-scoping projects that were marked as critical by the IT team. W The view...

...Organic Farm Business Plan Freedom Farm Submitted for Commerce 492.3, University of Saskatchewan 2001 Rosalind Ball Heather Hack Murray Nelson Myles Thorpe Executive summary Introduction Organic farming in Canada, and Saskatchewan in particular, has steadily increased especially in recent years. Reasons for the increase in organic food production are: market premiums of 2 to 2.5 times the conventional market price; an expansion in the consumer sector willing to pay the higher prices demanded by organic food; an expansion of markets in the developed world where Saskatchewan farm exports traditionally are targeted; and lower input prices due to organic production. This document is a proposed business plan, with a financial model, for setting up and operating an organic grain farm in Saskatchewan. The business is new, and is named Freedom Farm. Financial performance is projected for a ten-year period from 2002 to 2012. To sell organic produce at premium, Freedom Farm will obtain organic creditation from the Organic Crop Improvement Association (OCIA). The mission statement of Freedom farm is: To provide quality organic produce to suit customer demand while maintaining soil fertility and crop productivity.

Another organization that is most known and recognized, is The American Medical Billing Association (AMBA).There's a list of different certifications that one could gain, as a medical billing and coder.

...Final Project: The Importance of IT Certifications Carlos C Page Kaplan University CM107-80 The Importance of IT Certifications Certifications are internationally acknowledged means of establishing as well as assessing the required set of qualifications essential for a job. They are hard indication that you are knowledgeable enough to perform the tasks assigned (or could be assigned in the future) to you. At the same time, they present the management with a worldwide accepted benchmark alongside which both current and prospective employees can be evaluated; and it’s no different in the IT business. Getting certified in applicable IT technology can help enhance your career forecast (greater compensation, more demanding job profiles, etc.), gain extra respect, and enlarge job security. The significance that companies attach to certifications has increased so much that in some cases companies are explicitly asking for certified individuals. First, certifications are fitting industry standards skill assessment; second, certifications are intent measurements of skills and therefore easy to use when it comes to comparing and contrasting the faculty pool. In several cases it becomes the critical distinctive factor when candidates have comparable skill sets and experience (Raths, 2010). Basically, when organizations are faced with the complicated decision of workforce down sizing, they will want to maintain those who are the most skillful and...

...the process of obtaining H-1B visa status can begin. One can apply for H1B visa/status six months prior to the commencement of the petitioned employment, but no earlier. For example, if an employer knows they will have a certain opening approximately six months out, and they have a pre-chosen candidate, the process can begin based on this assumption. It is important to apply for the visa as early as possible (for the time being, this means as early as 6 months before your start date) due to the fact that the H-1B quota is currently being used up very quickly. There is only a pre-determined amount of ‘spots’, (visas) available, and it works kind of like a lottery. Given the constraint on the H-1B quota, it is always best for employers or HR professionals to expedite the recruitment process and sometimes push the starting date of employment forward. The H-1B visa is a ‘non-immigrant’ visa, meaning it’s utilized for individuals that just want to ‘work’ in the USA, not necessarily ‘live’ here permanently. A visa is designed to allow U.S. employers to recruit & employ foreign...

...Joint venture is a type of strategic alliance. According to Merriam-Webster dictionary, joint venture is a contractual agreement joining together two or more parties for the purpose of executing a particular business undertaking. All parties agree to share in the profits and losses of the enterprise. Many U.S. companies are of the opinion that a foreign partner is the best way to gain access to the global emerging market (Hall, 1984). StonyField is considering going international .There are foreign markets that would otherwise be closed to U.S companies but the emergence of an international joint venture defuses that challenge. Though there are benefits in going into a joint venture, there are also some challenges which StonyField needs to consider before making the move. StonyField will need to weigh the pros and cons of such an alliance which are; Pros: Different skill set Joint ventures allow different parties to bring different skills to the table. Many companies that enter into joint partnerships pool their competencies to gain access to new technology, capital and skills, as well as critical business knowledge. This act of pooling different skill sets increases the value that can be manufactured (Jones, 2011). StonyField will gain new skill set while sharing their own competencies with the proposed joint venture company. Reduced complex inter-organizational relationships Joint ventures are always backed up with a legal agreement binding the companies involved in the...

(November 2009) | The H-1B is a non-immigrant visa in the United States under the Immigration and Nationality Act, section 101(a)(15)(H). It allows US employers to temporarily employ foreign workers in specialty occupations. If a foreign worker in H-1B status quits or is dismissed from the sponsoring employer, the worker must either apply for and be granted a change of status to another non-immigrant status, find another employer (subject to application for adjustment of status and/or change of visa), or leave the US. The regulations define a "specialty occupation" as requiring theoretical and practical application of a body of highly specialized knowledge in a field of human endeavor[1] including but not limited to biotechnology, chemistry, architecture, engineering, mathematics, physical sciences, social sciences, medicine and health, education, law, accounting, business specialties, theology, and the arts, and requiring the attainment of a bachelor’s degree or its equivalent as a minimum [2] (with the exception of fashion models, who must be "of distinguished merit and ability").[3] Likewise, the foreign worker must possess at least a bachelor’s degree...
