Since 2014, MiCrédito has offered cholarships for young Nicaraguans to study through our Diploma in Finance with emphasis in Microfinance. Through this program, MiCrédito senior staff instructs classes on a wide variety of topics including accounting, credit management, risk and compliance, customer service, and inter-personal communication. These classes are held on Saturdays in Managua, León, Estelí, and Masaya through partnerships with different universities. During the week, the diploma students participate in a cooperative education placement in one of MiCrédito's branch offices where they are able to put into practice what they have learned in class.

​

Through this program, MiCrédito offers full scholarships which include the cost of the course and materials, graduation fees, and a weekly stipend for food and transportation. The scholarships are targeted to young Nicaraguans with few economic resources that wish to become microfinance professionals.
