PROVIDENCE – Citizens Financial Group Inc. and the Community College of Rhode Island have launched the Banking Micro-Pathway, a new training program designed to prepare Rhode Islanders for entry-level financial services jobs – just as the state’s banking sector plans to add 500 positions over the next five years amid rapid changes driven by artificial intelligence.

Backed by Education Design Lab and several other regional banks, including Bank of America Corp., Centreville Bank, The Washington Trust Co. and BankNewport, the program signals an industry push to expand opportunities and boost Rhode Island’s financial services workforce. PBN Branded Content
