Certification Renewal Guidelines
| Overview |
In order to maintain the certification in active status, FIBA AMLCA and FIBA CPAML alumni are required to renew their certifications biennially (every two years). There are three renewal requirements: 1) a completed certification renewal application (and if necessary supporting documentation), 2) a $100 certification renewal fee and 3) twenty 20 continuing education (CE) credits. |
| Deadline |
The certification renewal requirements must be completed and submitted by June 30th every two (2) years. If you received your certification in 2010, the continuing education (CE) credits, application and fee must be completed and submitted to FIBA by June 30, 2012. |
| Credits for Continuing Education |
A total of twenty (20) continuing education credits must be accumulated within a two-year cycle. All continuing education credits must be earned prior to the deadline. Please note that credits from one renewal period cannot be carried over to the next. Continuing education credits may be obtained through a variety of programs, such as: • FIBA Annual Anti Money Laundering Compliance Conference • all FIBA events • FIBA e-learning and e-learning on AML/risk/fraud • FIBA webinars and webinars on AML/risk/fraud • in-house training at your institution • other approved Anti Money Laundering training programs. |
| Application |
Alumni are required to complete and submit the entire certification renewal application. Once the application has been submitted, please allow four to six weeks for the application to be reviewed and processed. Applications must be sent to fibatraining@fiba.net or faxed to (305) 579-0969. |
| Certification Renewal Fee |
As part of the renewal requirements, applicants must submit the certification renewal fee of $100. Fees must be submitted by the deadline, are non-refundable and can be paid by credit card, wire transfer, or check made payable to FIBA. Applicants who submit applications with the inappropriate payment amount will remain unprocessed until the amount is paid in full. FIBA will waive the certification renewal fee if the applicant attended the FIBA Anti Money Laundering Conference as part of their continuing education. |
| Late Applications/ Extensions | FIBA AMLCA and FIBA CPAML must request and extension if continuing education credits are not completed by June 30th of the certification renewal year. Extensions are granted on a case-by-case basis. |
| Inactive Certifications |
If the FIBA AMLCA or FIBA CPAML Certification is not renewed, it will become inactive and the alumni will no longer be certified. To become certified, the certification exam must be taken again. The fee to take the Certification Exam is $200. |
