The growth of a regulated business environment and the tragic events of 9/11 led to the European Union’s imposition of mandatory anti-money laundering training for the legal profession.
The larger law firms immediately recognised the issues this raised for them in being able to deploy and track AML training across their thousands of staff in offices spread across the world.
A group of leading firms led by Lovells COO, Nick Cray, also recognised the value and protection that could be derived from establishing one training programme that would b e used by most if not all leading firms and thereby setting “the legal profession’s de-facto standard for AML compliance training”.
14 firms agreed to collaborate on writing the content for an online Anti-Money Laundering Course that would be applicable to the Fee Earners in each of their firms.
VinciWorks, the leading developer of e-learning for the legal profession, was engaged to develop the user interface, instructional design, interactive exercises and scoring, tracking and reporting capabilities.
The 90 minute (1.5 CPD point) course received overwhelming positive feedback from fee earners in each of the fourteen OCC AML Core firms. The ability to achieve training compliance for thousands of fee earners across multiple offices in the UK and globally confirmed the effectiveness of e-learning for compliance training and tracking.
