Personr and UpSkill Partner to Strengthen AML/CTF for Australian Businesses
Personr and UpSkill Partner to Strengthen AML/CTF for Australian Businesses
There's one AML/CTF obligation that often gets overlooked: training.
AUSTRAC has made it clear that training is a non-negotiable.
To meet your obligations under Australia's AML/CTF framework, your staff must understand:
Your AML/CTF obligations.
The procedures and policies they must follow to manage and mitigate your money laundering, terrorism financing and proliferation financing risks.
Knowing this, Personr is proud to announce its integration partnership with UpSkill: bringing engaging, role-specific AML/CTF training to the Personr platform.
What This Means for Personr Customers
Through this integration, Personr customers can now complete and track their AML/CTF training through the Personr platform.
Training records sit alongside your policies, risk assessments, and onboarding workflows.
Personr Co-Founder Nick Ahrens said training is the AML/CTF obligation that gets the least attention and causes the most headaches at audit time.
“Bringing UpSkill's accredited courses into Personr closes that gap for our customers. They can now meet their AUSTRAC training obligations, keep the records, and demonstrate compliance, all from the same platform they already use every day," he said.
