History
United by the need for professional recognition for their skills and experience, a small group of banking professionals set up the first Institute of Bankers in England and Wales, which later became LIBF. Today, LIBF provides students all around the world with everything they need to learn flexibly through online or blended courses.
Education
For over 140 years, LIBF has provided top-tier bachelor, master, and MBA programmes, part and full-time, for UK and international students. Their online learning model allows you to earn an LIBF degree entirely online, from anywhere in the world, with full flexibility over your study schedule. Their blended learning model gives you the opportunity to earn your UK degree in London by combining the flexibility of online learning with structured in-person classes on campus. Either way, you will have access to LIBF's bespoke digital learning platform, its global network of alumni and professionals, as well as dedicated study and career support from day one.
Career
Beyond academics, LIBF places significant emphasis on your career progression. Through their Careers and Employability service, you can access valuable resources like CV workshops, mock interviews, and personalised career advice. Exposure to industry talks, careers fairs, and networking events offers a firm grasp of the UK job market, enabling you to make informed career choices. From honing job application skills to broadening your professional network, LIBF's career support steers you confidently towards your desired career path.

Student services
Ensuring your academic success is a cornerstone of LIBF's approach. Their dedicated tutors are always ready to support you, offering guidance to understand complex concepts and overcome study challenges. You'll also have access to their extensive online library services and various resources to enhance your knowledge base. Furthermore, their digital learning platform allows you to learn at a pace and place that suits you, fostering self-paced learning, peer interaction, and direct engagement with tutors.
Medical services
Once you arrive in the UK, it is recommended that you register with a local doctor (General Practitioner or GP). As part of the student visa process, you will be required to pay an immigration health surcharge, which gives you access to the National Health Service (NHS) in the same way UK residents have. This covers most health care, although there can be charges for dental treatment and medicines.
Campus life
Located in the heart of London, LIBF's campus boasts an extensive range of facilities, including modern classrooms, study lounges, Wi-Fi, computers and a library with a wealth of publications. The international and student-friendly setting fosters academic learning and peer interaction, making the LIBF campus a great place to learn and grow.
