AML training that survives an audit

By The EUCPD editorial team July 2026 6 min read

AML training is one of the most commonly examined controls, and generic, one-size-fits-all modules are a frequent finding. Supervisors look for training that is current, role-relevant, and evidenced.

Current means the content reflects the framework as it stands now — for EU firms, the AML Package and the arrival of AMLA change the picture materially. Role-relevant means a front-office analyst and an MLRO don’t receive identical training.

Evidenced means a record exists for each person: what they completed, when, and the hours attached. Structured CPD, mapped to the instruments it teaches, gives you exactly that trail.

When a framework moves, the courses that teach it move with it. Map your obligations to the training that keeps you current.
