Our Trainers

The Courses

The style of teaching is interactive and participation-oriented and does not simply comprise a series of lectures. The mix of teaching sessions, exercises (short problems attempted by participants individually or in pairs) and case studies (more substantial issues which are addressed by participants in groups of four or five) is designed to maximise benefit. Participants are supplied with copies of the slides that are displayed and -where relevant- comprehensive notes.


Our courses are designed for those who work in compliance and AML, Money Laundering Compliance Officers (MLCOs), local compliance officers, internal audit and other relevant areas, as well as those who wish to get a practical perspective on AML. Furthermore, it is an excellent introduction to people that want to join this profession, the demand for which has exploded in recent years. All courses have a set structure, which consists of 3 to 9 sections. Each section consists of a 15-minute video, a case study based on the video, and questions based on the case study.


This interactive structure ensures that all participants will absorb the knowledge provided in a pleasant and intuitive manner.


The production value of our online courses is unparalleled, offering pleasing and easy to follow short videos, with explanations and real life examples. The course design was undertaken by both AML Specialists and Learning & Development Experts to provide an interactive and fulfilling experience.
