Frequently asked questions

Agree the scope, delivery and learning evidence before the programme begins.

Can we start with one team or one product line?

Yes. Book a single training session or workshop for one team, one product line, a difficult case type or a finding from a quality review, or start with a team AML check. If you want continuing support, we plan an annual programme around the results.

Does every insurance product need the same AML training?

No. We scope the relevant obligations and learning around your products, distribution model, roles and jurisdictions. Life and investment-related products can require a different focus from other insurance business.

How do you choose the expert?

We match the subject and market context with relevant practitioner experience, then consider the ability to explain the work or facilitate a group. The proposal identifies the expert, scope and availability.

What can managers review?

Managers can review available learning, attendance and assessment evidence within their organisational scope. The learning plan confirms certificate eligibility, CPD allocation, materials, recording access and any assessed skills contribution before delivery.

Can we use your content in our existing LMS?

Yes. We review the content you already have and scope licensed courses or simulators to fill agreed gaps. Courses can be delivered as SCORM packages, simulators and whole programmes run on our learning platform, and we can build a custom API integration on request.

Which languages can our team learn in?

The learning platform works in English, French and Spanish. CASS can be studied in English, French or Spanish, and AML Foundations in English or Spanish. CAPS, FIAR and the industry tracks are taught in English, and certificates are issued in English.

How are timing and pricing agreed?

Each programme’s individual price is on its page. For teams, we quote for the people, programmes and live sessions you choose, as a single session or an annual agreement, once we have agreed the scope, any tailoring and the delivery. Allow around four weeks to prepare tailored live sessions.
