YEREVAN. - The training center of the Central Bank of Armenia (CBA) in Armenia’s Dilijan spa town hosts regional educational programs of the U.S. Federal Reserve System, Chairman of the CBA, Arthur Javadyan, said at the discussion on the CBA monetary policy project for 2016 in the National Assembly (NA) of Armenia Thursday

In Javadyan’s words, he decided to tell about the center in greater detail, considering that many bankers think it is a health resort. Since its opening, the center has hosted about 150 conferences and round table meetings with the participation of over 50 countries. Scientific programs, including the regional programs of the U.S. Federal Reserve System designed for the workers of national financial regulators are held there.

Representatives of the Central Banks of Israel, Greece, Cyprus, Turkey and former Soviet republics took part in them. Students from the leading U.S. universities – Stanford, Berkley and Harvard - have also passed trainings here.
