The 24th Edition of the Boulder Microfinance Training (MFT) in English featuring the Digital Financial Services Concentration will be held  in Turin, Italy  from July 23rd to August 3rd, 2018. The Programme will bring together financial inclusion professionals from around the world representing MFIs, Commercial Banks, Central Banks, Ministries of Finance, Donor Agencies, Investors, Development Agencies and more. The Training will offer 20 elective courses to choose from delivered by over 30  world-renowned experts on financial inclusion and include 6 cutting-edge courses on strategy, product design, agent banking, digital credit, and digital finance ecosystems.

The MasterCard Foundation (MCF) has generously supported the training of microfinance practitioners, and is offering for this year a special support for MFT Tuition Fee Scholarship Assistance, to qualified individuals seeking to attend this year event.

MCF scholarships will cover full tuition fee of USD $4,300. The tuition cost of the program includes courses and program materials. Scholarships do not include the cost of travel to Turin, accommodations, meals and incidentals. Therefore, selected MCF scholars will need to have the additional financial support necessary to cover these remaining costs.
