Edcomm Banker’s Academy Launches MSB Elder Financial Abuse Training Program for Individuals

Oct. 29, 2010 - PRLog -- New York, NY  -- Edcomm Banker’s Academy has recently launched its Money Services Business (MSB) Elder Financial Abuse (EFA) training program for individuals looking to begin or advance their career in the financial services industry. The same great program that has already been used by thousands of MSBs, Focus on Elder Financial Abuse for MSBs provides individuals with the knowledge, skills and certification needed to detect and prevent elder financial abuse at their MSB.

Each year, millions of seniors are the victims of financial exploitation in the U.S. Sadly, over 80 percent of these abuse cases go unreported. In response, legislation is being passed across the country holding MSBs liable should they fail to report suspicions of elder financial abuse.

Focus on Elder Financial Abuse for MSBs, from Edcomm Banker’s Academy, is a comprehensive eLearning program providing training on issues related to elder financial abuse. The course covers: defining elder financial abuse and the laws governing it, detecting the red flags of elder financial abuse and reporting elder financial abuse properly. Focus on Elder Financial Abuse for MSBs is geared towards teaching participants how to identify elder abuse and how to protect both their customers and the MSB, with accurate, compliant reporting. Upon completion, students will receive a Banker's Academy Elder Financial Abuse for MSBs Certification (BAEFAMSBC) to help advance their career in today's financial industry.
