Health and Safety Guidelines
ACAMS is offering in-person attendance at The Assembly Hollywood in compliance with local government orders permitting such gatherings at this time. At this time, the Diplomat Hollywood Resort’s safety protocols, local guidance, and CDC guidelines do not require hotel guests and conference attendees to wear masks. However, all attendees and staff are still expected to fully comply with applicable safety precautions, such as staying home if exhibiting signs of illness. Masks are optional for anyone choosing to wear one and sanitization stations will be available throughout the meeting space.
If hospitalization rates rise, Broward County could re-instate capacity limits, which could impact the number of attendees permitted at The Assembly Hollywood 2023. If this were to occur, you would be notified as to the status of your registration. If state or local capacity restrictions require ACAMS to reduce the number of attendees at the conference, and you are unable to attend the conference in person, you will be provided alternatives, such as the ability to attend virtually or to transfer your pass to the next in-person event. Refunds will not be available.
ACAMS Credits
ACAMS members can earn up to 23 ACAMS credits for attending this event; 17 credits for the main conference, and 3 credits for each pre-conference workshop.

Covid-19 Policy: At the discretion of ACAMS, pass holders will receive a refund of a conference pass if the pass holder is unable to attend the in-person event, at any time, in Hollywood because the pass holder has been diagnosed with Covid-19 or if government-issued travel restrictions are in place during the event dates. If a pass holder is unable to attend because of the Covid-19 illness, ACAMS reserves the right to request proof of a positive diagnosis. If a pass holder has been potentially exposed to someone who is positive for COVID-19, a pass transfer to a future in-person event can be made.

- The country/state you live in issues advice not to travel to Hollywood, Florida
- The country/state you live in has imposed an unavoidable quarantine on return from travel
- There is an unavoidable quarantine on arrival in Hollywood, Florida
- There is a further lockdown phase in the country/state you live in that prevents you from leaving your home except for essential requirements
