The client in front of you, and the question you would rather not ask.
A scenario-based CPD programme, in development, for the people who take on clients and handle their money. It does not teach the definitions again. It puts the client in front of the learner and asks what they do next.
The fee is good and the paperwork is nearly complete. Nearly.
Source of funds is an awkward question. The learner has to ask it of someone they would rather not offend.
Something has changed since the engagement began, and carrying on is the easy option.
A suspicion has to go to the right person, and the client must not be tipped off.
Accountants, solicitors, estate agents, company service providers and the firms that train them. A professional body can offer it to its members, and a firm can use it for its own people.
Firms in the regulated sector are required by law to train their people to recognise and report suspicious activity. Most courses meet that duty with definitions and a quiz. The risk sits in the judgement call, which a quiz does not test.
Each part will open on a situation a practitioner would recognise. Every scenario will be reviewed by a specialist in the subject before release.
The learner chooses what to do, and the choice is scored against what a careful professional would do. There is no answer to look up.
Each learner leaves with a record of the decisions they made, which says more than a certificate of attendance.
The method is already live in AI for Professional Practice. Module 1 is open to anyone, takes about twenty minutes and needs no sign-up. Try Module 1, or see the other titles in the library.
Anti-Money Laundering for Professional Practice is in development. The interest each title draws helps decide which one is built next, so yours counts. We will write once, when it is ready.
