Not ready for a full qualification? Start with an Essentials workshop.

If you're weighing up which regulatory or financial crime compliance training course is right for you, you don't need to commit to a full qualification to take the next step.

ICA Essentials are three-hour virtual workshops covering core risk topics, built for professionals who want to gain a fundamental understanding of the subject. No prior experience required.

Each Essentials workshop gives you a genuine taste of the subject matter, so when you're ready to go further, you already know it's the right path, and you'll have a £100 discount waiting for you on the corresponding ICA Certificate or Specialist Certificate qualification.

If budgets are tight, start small.

Getting a manager to sign off on a full qualification can be challenging when training budgets are stretched, but Essentials workshops are cost-effective, with minimal time out of the business, and still give you (and your employer) a genuine read on whether the subject is worth studying further for your career path.

If you need to make the case internally, our insight article on how to get your employer to say yes to training is a useful place to start, covering the risk mitigation benefits, return on investment, and professionalism arguments that tend to land best with budget holders.
