About ACAMS Scholarships
At ACAMS, our community is a reflection of who we were, who we are, and who we hope to be. We are working to drive long-term change that allows diverse perspectives to flourish. This includes creating opportunities for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) professionals pursuing a career in financial crime prevention.
Our scholarships are part of our wider diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) commitment - empowering professionals from diverse backgrounds to advance their financial crime prevention careers. Through our scholarships, we aim to advance the personal and professional development of aspiring BIPOC compliance professionals by:
- creating opportunities for them to acquire globally recognized qualifications
- helping strengthen their compliance toolkit in understanding emerging topics and trends in anti-financial crime
- providing a platform for peer networking and mentorship
As the largest international membership organization with over 90,000 members across 180 jurisdictions, scholarship recipients will join a dynamic global community of like-minded professionals.
Generally, the ACAMS scholarships include the total cost of the exam package (including study materials) and a one-year ACAMS membership. However, inclusions may vary depending on each scholarship award, and we invite you to refer to the dedicated scholarship award page for more information.
