Ezi Payment Solutions secures Financial Services Licence from ASIC.
 
Australia's leading payment solutions company has been granted an Australian Financial Services Licence by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission.

Ezi Payments Solutions CEO, Mr John de Stefani, said the granting of the licence was recognition that the firm's employees and its processes were of sufficiently high calibre to operate in the financial services business of non-cash payment products.

"The business underwent an extremely rigorous assessment with ASIC before the licence was granted and it was very satisfying to see our people and our processes met the high standards required to qualify for the Australian Financial Services Licence," Mr de Stefani said.

Thump BoxingGet THUMPED & Get Accredited!
 
Have your boxing sessions become stale and boring? More importantly are your boxing sessions safe and effective? These are 2 questions which Fitness Professionals must ask themselves when instructing boxing to their clients. Boxing has become one of the most popular exercises around meaning the demand for qualified instructors is increasing as more and more people are dusting off their gloves and thumping their way to fitness.
Fitness experts reccomend that any instructor who utlises boxing training in their sessions should seek specific qualifications further to the Cert 3 and 4. Not only will instructors become properly accredited but they will gain the advantage of actually knowing what they are teaching.
 
THUMP Training Systems runs Level 1 and Advanced courses specific to boxing for fitness in all cities around Australia with each course taking one day to complete.

For more information on boxing and kickboxing courses phone THUMP on 1300 558 285 or visit their website here.
