Course Overview
The Association of Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialists (ACAMS) is the largest international membership organization dedicated to enhancing the knowledge, skills and expertise of AML/CTF and financial crime detection and prevention professionals. Our members include representatives from a wide range of financial institutions, regulatory bodies, law enforcement agencies and industry sectors.
The course is designed to advance the professional knowledge, skills and experience of those dedicated to the detection and prevention of financial crime around the world. Furthermore, the 2-day CAMS Prep course supports candidates in developing the knowledge and practical understanding required to identify, assess, and mitigate financial crime risks, while preparing effectively for the CAMS certification examination.
The course complements, but does not replace, the required self-study using the official CAMS Study Guide.
Why Earn CAMS?
The Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialist (CAMS) designation denotes a superior level of understanding of international AML/CFT principles. Passing the CAMS examination distinguishes you as an AML/CFT authority and helps mitigate institutional financial crime risks. Internationally renowned and accepted, world governments acknowledge the CAMS Certification as the gold standard in AML/CFT compliance.
Those who earn the CAMS designation reap multiple benefits, as increasing their professional value through better understanding of financial crime detection and prevention techniques, protecting their institution from money laundering threats and minimize financial crime risks, meeting mandated AML training requirements through preparation and study, and proving their AML expertise to examiners and regulators.
The CAMS credential:
Demonstrates to examiners that your institution has specialized knowledge in the anti-financial crime. CAMS is recognized as the benchmark of AML certifications by regulatory agencies and the financial services industry.
Can help your organization minimize risk. Having a CAMS-certified team ensures that your colleagues share and maintain a common level of AML knowledge. Studying for the examination also offers guidance in designing and implementing tailored AML programs
