Vijayawada: As many as 36 students had completed the 32-day certificate programme on Banking, Finance, and Insurance (CPBFI) hosted by Andhra Loyola College sponsored by Pune-based Bajaj Finserv as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative, according to placement coordinator Dr G Sahaya Baskaran.

He said in a statement here on Monday that a total of 42 students got enrolled in the intensive evening programme, which spanned 32 days with 3-hour daily sessions after college hours. Among them, 36 students successfully completed the programme and received certificates at the ceremony held on campus.
