The International Compliance Association partners with Temple Professionals, Mauritius with Anti Money Laundering programme offering

31 August 2018

The challenge of managing transnational and international AML risks is one that demands an internationally ‘joined up’ approach and a common understanding of emerging trends. Demonstrative knowledge of a commitment to the highest standards of practice and conduct is a must as we tackle the ever-evolving and complex nature of anti money laundering.

The International Compliance Association (ICA) as part of its ongoing mission to make the world a more stable and successful place by inspiring, educating and enable compliance specialists has partnered with Temple Professionals in Mauritius, offering internationally recognised anti money laundering qualifications in the region. Temple Professionals will provide the ICA Certificate in Financial Crime Prevention as well as the ICA Advanced Certificate in Anti Money Laundering, to complement the need for entry-level and advanced-level staff. More courses, including at diploma-level are expected to follow in 2019. By offering both entry-level and expert level qualifications, prospective students can seize the opportunity to learn the fundamentals of their chosen subject area or underpin their existing knowledge with a globally-recognised qualification.

The ICA, along with its training partner International Compliance Training, are committed to providing exceptional learning experiences across the globe through it’s highly practical yet academically rigorous qualifications, awarded in association with Alliance Manchester Business School, the University of Manchester.
