College of Finance

Register online, course information, seminar and custom training, admissions, online courses, Financial Services Academy, corporate information, FAQ. New England College of Finance (NECF) is a unique academic institution in that it historically has been dedicated to serving the highly specialized educational needs of the banking and financial services industries. From the time of its founding in 1909, these industries recognized that even with the advent of business programs, traditional liberal arts institutions did not provide sufficiently detailed curriculums to address the skills, training, and knowledge requirements of entry-level employees and middle managers in these industries. To further enhance the highly focused educational needs of banking and financial services, the college has historically operated as a membership organization where its curriculums are directly influenced by its member companies.
