Graduate Certificate in Anti-Money Laundering and Counter Terrorism Financing

The FNS80020 Graduate Certificate in Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Counter Terrorism Financing (CTF) is designed for individuals who apply knowledge and skills in a compliance and management role, which may include aspects of AML and CTF.

This course is for you if you are making autonomous decisions and using initiative and judgement to assess and design a range of AML/CTF functions in a variety of contexts in your organisation.

You will come from a role or be seeking a role where you have full responsibility and accountability for your work and for the work or function of others – potentially leading a team or supervising others in the execution of AML responsibilities.

You will be able to use your cognitive and creative skills to review, critically analyse, consolidate and synthesise knowledge to generate ideas and provide solutions to complex AML and financial crime challenges for your organisation. You will be able to use your superior communication skills to demonstrate understanding of theoretical concepts and to convey this knowledge and these ideas to others.

Our Graduate Certificate AML CTF course content will also cover other financial crime elements, so that the content encompasses more than just anti-money laundering. Our members’ experience is that it is often the responsibility of this area of the compliance function to understand the management of risk across this broad spectrum of financial crime risk.

Business leaders increasingly understand the importance of compliance risk leadership across the core activities that underpin exemplary organisational performance. This course content develops participants in these leadership areas to mature their compliance risk experience and enable them to lead change, culture and people in senior compliance risk roles.

Drawing on the experience of our expert faculty, the Australian Compliance Institute has developed a comprehensive program combining presentations, masterclasses, collaborative and individual activities, case studies and workplace assessments.
