"I just graduated with a degree in business/banking/accountancy/etc. & just being employed in a bank. For my career-path in the banking industry which route shall i choose i.e. pursue my Master level at IPTA/IPTS or attend the certification program at AICB, CIIF, ASAS, IBFIM...++.?"
It depends:
If you intend to become a lecturer one day then you should choose the tertiary education route from Master to PhD & get a Dr. title.
If you choose to become a professional banker one day with at a least C-suite level i.e. CEO, CFO, CRO, CCO, CSO etc. then choose the certification/chartered qualification route & be awarded with the professional titles such as CB, CPIF, CSA, CSP, CA, CPA etc.
It's your call coz banking industry; be it Conventional or Islamic is going towards professionalism i.e. you need to be certified or have a charter title for career development in the near future targetted by Y2022.
