E-learning:
Banking compliance
Regulatory requirements in the banking sector are becoming increasingly stringent, making ongoing training for teams essential.
To address these challenges, eLearning Studio has designed a comprehensive training programme consisting of 10 e-learning modules dedicated to banking compliance.
Some modules are mandatory and form part of the annual regulatory training programme.
The other modules reinforce staff compliance culture and risk management skills.
Training objectives
This course aims to enable banking sector employees to:
-
Understand the main regulatory compliance obligations.
-
Identify the risks associated with money laundering, fraud, corruption and financial sanctions.
-
Adopt best practices to protect clients' interests and comply with banking secrecy.
-
Strengthen their vigilance and responsibility in applying compliance rules on a daily basis.
A certificate can be issued to validate participation in the training.

10 modules for banking staff
With a total duration of approximately 8 hours, this training course has been designed to provide each employee with essential knowledge in the area of banking compliance. In an environment marked by tighter regulations and increased vigilance on the part of the authorities, understanding the risks associated with money laundering, fraud, corruption and financial sanctions is essential.
By completing these modules, each employee develops their ability to identify risky situations, adopt best practices and actively contribute to protecting customers and the reputation of their institution.
Each module includes quizzes at the end of each chapter and a final assessment questionnaire to validate learning and measure progress.
This training course is therefore a real investment in the security, efficiency and sustainability of banking activities.
