An ACAMS certificate course is a short, self-paced online course focused on a specific topic within anti-financial crime (AFC). These courses are designed to be completed in about four weeks and include a 20-question final assessment. Upon completion, learners receive a certificate of achievement, demonstrating their understanding of the subject matter.

In contrast, an ACAMS certification program – such as the CAMS Certification – is a comprehensive, structured program that validates a professional’s knowledge and experience in a broader area of AFC. Certification programs typically require several months of study and preparation, culminating in a rigorous exam of approximately 120 multiple-choice questions. Upon passing, candidates earn a designation, which must be maintained through ongoing education and recertification every three years.
