12 modules. 12 chapters per module. 144 chapters total.
12 modules, each with 12 chapters (144 chapters total), text-based, plus downloadable templates and a hand-built implementation playbook delivered alongside course access.
Compliance teams are expected to do more with tighter timelines, but legacy processes slow down response and audit cycles.

The situation this course is for

Even skilled analysts face challenges when rules-based systems don’t adapt, documentation lags behind changes, or cross-system data flows create blind spots. The gap isn't knowledge, it's implementation structure.

Who this is for

A business or technology professional with foundational BSA/AML experience seeking to lead or contribute to scalable, auditable, and automated compliance systems.

Who this is not for

This course is not for entry-level analysts seeking basic exam prep or those focused only on policy interpretation without technical integration.

What you walk away with

  • Design end-to-end BSA/AML monitoring workflows that integrate with core banking and transaction systems
  • Implement automated alert triage and case management structures using rule and risk-scoring models
  • Build audit-ready documentation packages that align with FFIEC and FATF expectations
  • Orchestrate data flows between KYC, transaction monitoring, and SAR reporting systems
  • Lead cross-functional alignment between compliance, IT, and data governance teams
