Stephanie Mason, Learning Programs Coordinator, CCUA

CCUA is proud to announce a new accreditation for our members! Formed in partnership with and jointly awarded by the Credit Union Institute of Canada (CUIC) and Dalhousie University, the Accredited Financial Crime Specialist is now available.

This four-course program is designed for any credit union professionals working in AML/compliance back office, and those working in supervisory roles in a branch where AML escalation questions would require awareness of anti-money laundering, terrorist financing and sanction evasion risks and red flags.

This is also the first employee accreditation to require annual continuing education (CE) credits. Here's how the CE credits work:

1 CE credit = 1 hour of AML or compliance focused training. Eligible training activities can include:  

• Compliance focused sessions at CCUA conferences and/or forums
• ACAMS courses and training
• Compliance focused webinars
• Courses and sessions delivered by The AML Shop
