Edcomm Banker’s Academy Launches UAE Compliance Training Program for Individuals

Jan. 21, 2010 - PRLog -- New York, NY  -- Edcomm Banker’s Academy has recently launched its United Arab Emirates (UAE) Compliance 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 bankers in the UAE, Focus on Compliance for the UAE gives individuals the knowledge, skills and certification they need to remain up-to-date on banking regulations in the UAE.

Compliance training is extremely important for all bank employees in the UAE. When banks are found to be non-compliant, they may face significant penalties, including large fines and closure. When bank employees are found to be non-compliant, they may be banned from the banking industry altogether! Therefore, it is necessary for each and every employee working at UAE financial institutions to learn and understand the laws, regulations, policies and procedures that govern the industry.

Focus on Compliance for the UAE, for Edcomm Banker’s Academy, is a computer-based, self study compliance training program that teaches individuals everything they need to know about the laws and regulations governing the financial industry in the UAE. Beginning with an overview of compliance and its importance, the program goes on to teach individuals about the Central Bank of the UAE (CBU), the USA PATRIOT Act, Basel II, bank governance, account requirements, Anti Money Laundering and much more. Focus on Compliance for the UAE addresses every regulation that individuals need to know to work at a bank, and is continuously updated to reflect industry changes to help individuals stay up-to-date and knowledgeable.
