Testimonials

“The practical assignments truly elevated the course, making it more engaging and increasing my love for the subject. The team was incredibly supportive and always available to provide help and guidance whenever needed. This program offered an excellent opportunity to explore financial crimes and related topics, with well-structured materials and sufficient time to grasp each session. The team was helpful in covering missed portions and resolving doubts, ensuring a comprehensive understanding. While the initial sessions felt a bit long and the overall course duration slightly extended, it did not diminish the quality of the experience. I’m truly grateful for the unwavering support, guidance, and dedication of the team. My overall experience was fantastic, and I’m so happy to have been part of this journey!”

“Considering 80% of the people in this batch were absolutely new to KYC, the time spent by the trainer making sure that each individual present in the training room understood the concept was commendable. The subject knowledge was top notch. A lot of revisions were done just to make sure everyone walks out of the session with that comfort of knowledge. Great level of patience, Commitment and honesty was seen in the way the program was conducted/delivered. I have been in the industry for more than 18 yrs. Heading processes of 2 leading banks currently. I am not new to KYC but still a lot new things were learnt when the training caught up pace from the 2nd week.”

You’ve truly earned word-of-mouth publicity with your exceptional efforts. Kudos to the entire team.”

FAQs

CDDP is short for a Certified Due Diligence Professional and we believe they are critical in the fight against financial crime. You see, we have professionals we rely on in all walks of life including for managing our tax, accounting, legal needs and even to take care of our pets BUT, when it comes to fighting financial crime, for some reason we have never invested in skilled professionals who need to meet certain professional standards. We think this is a serious gap and are seeking to address that with the creation of the CDDP program.

Anti-Financial Crime is the sum total of all of the controls to fight financial crime and includes upskilling. Our upskilling programs focus on helping you acquire the verifiable due diligence skills which are a critical part of anti-financial crime efforts.

All of the key professionals we rely on have verifiable skills i.e., someone has trained and tested them. We place our trust in that process having done its job well and therefore we trust these professionals. The CDDP Program will train
and test your ability to conduct due diligence and this then allows us to make a representation to the industry that you have acquired the skills needed to conduct due diligence i.e., we verify your skills and make this representation to the industry.

The CDDP Program is highly practical, focusing 70% on real-world case studies rather than just theory. Unlike other courses that might focus on general knowledge, CDDP prepares you to handle real-life financial crime cases,

final assessment includes multiple-choice questions and practical case reviews, focusing on both your knowledge and ability to apply it. You’ll need to score at least 80% on written assessments and demonstrate 95% accuracy in case reviews. If you don’t pass, feedback will be provided, and you may be eligible for re-assessment with the next batch.
