About the course

You’ll learn what money laundering and terrorism financing are, why they matter, and how global and Australian regulations are applied in practice. With a focus on recognising risks, responding effectively, and applying a risk-based approach, the course helps you understand both your personal obligations and the broader compliance frameworks that protect organisations and communities from financial crime.

Course Highlights

  • Understand what money laundering, terrorism financing, and proliferation financing are – and the key differences between them.

  • Learn the three stages of money laundering and how red flags can be identified in practice.

  • Gain insights into AML/CTF legislation in Australia and globally, including the AML/CTF Amendment Act 2024.

  • Discover how a risk-based approach strengthens compliance and improves decision-making.

Why AML?

Money laundering and terrorism financing undermine trust in financial systems, fund criminal activity, and pose significant risks to businesses and communities. For professionals and organisations, understanding AML obligations isn’t just about compliance, it’s about safeguarding reputation, protecting customers, and reducing exposure to financial crime.

    “Honestly thought it was gonna be boring. I was very wrong! Very engaging and informative. Loved all 5 days and will be back for more courses!”

    “Let’s be honest – ISO standards aren’t exactly edge-of-your-seat material. But this course proved that with the right coach, even clauses and compliance can be compelling! Packed with real-world examples, well-paced sessions, and just the right amount of workshops, it was surprisingly enjoyable. Highly recommended!”

    “It was clearly evident that the lead auditor trainer had significant industry-related experience in auditing. He was able to keep the class fully engaged with personal interaction and reinforce learnings. Getting full copies of the standards was amazing, the catering and the training location in Brisbane was perfect.”

    “The trainer’s experience and real-life examples gave great context to the course material. The 5 days allowed the material to be digested in a way that was not overwhelming. I’d definitely recommend the course to others.”
