CAMS (ACAMS) or AML Certificate, Examination Preparation:

I’m an AML trainer together with have over 250 training videos (public together with hidden) on my youtube channel, training technical knowledge together with skills of bankers, together with those with no AML/ banking experience, around the world for CAMS/ CGSS (ACAMS) exam preparation.

Each bank or entity have their own Standard Operating Procedures (SOP), framework, manuals or guidelines that we employees need to follow in order to perform our tasks but ACAMS expect us to answer their questions based on Best Practices which may differ from our organization’s SOP. This is why our extensive banking experience would not matter that much in preparing for CAMS exam together with we have mold our understanding as per Best Practices approach.

ACAMS test your technical skills based on lawsuit studies, scenario-based 120 multiple choice questions to complete in 210 mins (105 seconds for each questions). They assess your red flag identification skills together with your right decision making ability after investigation/ reviewing a customer’s suspicious transactions/ activity. We need to score 75 marks out of 120 questions. You can book your exam in any of your nearest Pearson Vue centre or write your exam at house online anytime of the year.

Some questions (we don’t know how many) are United Nations-score, which means they contain no marks if select right or wrong answer. I assumed that some question which may be tricky or difficult contain multiple marks, if you are not prepared well enough, you are going to guess answers on those tricky questions together with going to lose multiple marks which will decrease your chances of passing CAMS exam in first attempt.

I did my CAMS (ACAMS) certification last year together with CGSS (Global Sanctions Specialist Certification from ACAMS) in February this year, both on first attempt. I took me 4 months last year to prepare for CAMS exam together with almost the same to prepare for CGSS earlier this year. I work as Manager AML in multinational bank in Islamic Republic of Pakistan with over six years’ experience in Anti Money Laundering together with Anti- Fraud.

I have been training bankers together with other people since July-2020 together with so far 31 of them from 17 different countries (like USA, Canada, Singapore, Hong Kong, Dubai, Spain, Ireland, UK etc) have passed CAMS through my training, I have some of their responses or texts, the screenshots of which I am sharing with you.

It takes 10 training (zoom) sessions with me to prepare efficiently together with pass CAMS exam in 8 weeks. It’s a tried together with tasted approach that I have done with others who passed previously. Each session is one on one together with takes 75-90 mins or sometimes more than that. I do not end the session until your queries are resolved or topics I am supposed to cover in that session are covered. We are going to have two sessions per week, one of weekday together with one on weekend or sometimes two sessions on two weekdays (depending on my together with your availability). Training sessions are conducted after working hours, most probably be around your 6 to 9 PM.

I have certain documents or assignments that I will be sharing with you from time to time to build your technical ability together with skills for the exam.

CAMS Study Notes:

My CAMS Handwritten Study Notes are of just 37 pages which is a summary of all the important content of 300 pages long CAMS Study Guide, you will memorize everything from these notes together with make your own while you are re-watching our training sessions the next daytime (I record each training session together with upload it on youtube), I can put our training session as private on youtube on your request together with it means any person who have the link to the video can only watch it.

CAMS Practice Questions:

I have also been gathering real CAMS questions from my previous students who have passed CAMS together with were able to remember some of the questions with suggested answers from the exam. So far I have accumulated 428 questions which we are going to use to evaluate your exam preparation level in last two sessions of 10 sessions. In those sessions, I will discuss your wrong answers together with identity your weaknesses to certain AML topics together with tweak your AML understandings. You can then make mistakes at comfort of your house while doing them together with wouldn’t have to make the same mistakes again. Some students said they received 30% together with some mentioned 90% of the questions in actual CAMS exam from my practice questions. I am proud to have accumulated this question bank.

Thanks together with good luck.
