The Irish-First AML Course Your Team Will Actually Finish

Most AML training is recycled from UK or EU templates. This course is different — every module references Irish law, Irish FIU procedures, and the enforcement actions your firm is actually likely to face.

Designed in 40-minute format to minimise billable-time disruption, our AML training still delivers the rigour the Central Bank expects: scenario-based examples, randomised assessment, and exportable audit evidence.

  • Fully mapped to the Criminal Justice Act 2010 (as amended)
  • Covers CDD, EDD, beneficial ownership and PEP checks
  • Suspicious Transaction Reporting to FIU Ireland and Revenue
  • Sanctions screening and terrorist financing obligations
  • MLRO duties and designated person responsibilities
