The New Zealand Financial Markets Association (NZFMA) is the professional body for New Zealand’s wholesale financial markets. They provide vital industry standards, education, and advocacy, playing a central role in the country’s financial ecosystem.
The goal was to move beyond a simple update, opting for a complete ground-up redesign to improve user experience and content delivery.
Our Solution: Expert spearheaded a comprehensive digital transformation by building a new bespoke site on the latest MoST CMS iteration. This project involved a total visual redesign, implementing a modern aesthetic with updated imagery refreshing copy to ensure clarity and relevance.
Expert’s Added Value:
We developed a custom exam system to support the NZFMA accreditation process through a dynamic and secure assessment framework. The platform features a robust question bank where administrators can define competencies, difficulty levels, and weighted scoring. These questions are organised into chapters that use randomised selection logic, ensuring every student receives a unique exam that remains consistent with the required standards.
The workflow prioritises integrity, requiring both the student and an authorised observer to log in simultaneously within a set timeframe. The system automatically calculates durations and manages the completion process, including allowing students to revisit skipped questions. If a candidate fails, the system facilitates a targeted resit by generating a new, randomised set of questions specifically for the failed chapters.
