About the CAMS Certification
Recognized worldwide by employers in both private industry and government and acknowledged by regulators
and examiners, the Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialist (CAMS) credential denotes proven expertise in
the detection and prevention of money laundering.
The decision to pursue CAMS is proof of your commitment to the profession. It keeps you on top of new
developments in the field and shows regulators and examiners that you and your employer are serious about
combating money laundering.
AML professionals with the CAMS designation position themselves as leaders in the industry and experience
superior professional growth. According to the ACAMS AML Compensation survey, respondents who had been
CAMS-certified made up to 14% more than their non-certified counterparts. Similarly, respondents who were
not currently CAMS-certified projected a compensation increase of 20% if they were to become CAMScertified.
Three Unique Courses - One Package
You will learn how to prepare to earn CAMS Certificate and you will also learn how to compare Saudi
AML/CFT laws and regulations and US AML/CFT laws and regulations, plus a full day of CAMS Prep Course!
