14 Years of Collaboration

Award-Winning AML/ATF Training for Canadian Credit Unions

For more than 14 years, Tamlo worked alongside CCUA and credit union compliance leaders across Canada to build and evolve the Flag the Money AML/ATF training cycle — a sustained collaboration with sector experts and AML authorities.

Built Together

A Partnership Built on Sector Expertise

This was not a transactional vendor relationship — it was a sustained collaboration with sector experts and AML authorities to ensure the program reflected the real operational challenges facing Canadian credit unions.

  • Real operational challenges
  • Evolving FINTRAC expectations
  • Sector-specific risks
  • Practical application, not theory

That partnership resulted in one of the most recognized AML training programs in the Canadian credit union system. Together, Tamlo and its credit union partners were honored with the prestigious JOLT Award, recognizing innovation and excellence in learning.

“Tamlo continues to maintain and update Flag the Money — and the full three-year program is now available directly to credit unions.”

Regulatory Context

Strengthening Ongoing Training in an Era of Heightened Enforcement

FINTRAC’s enforcement posture has evolved significantly. Administrative monetary penalties have increased dramatically in recent years, and regulatory scrutiny now extends beyond policies and procedures to the effectiveness of compliance programs — including training.

Examinations are increasingly focused on whether training is ongoing, not episodic; whether content reflects emerging typologies; and whether institutions can demonstrate meaningful reinforcement. In this environment, training cannot be treated as a once-a-year requirement.

Ongoing Training

Flag Financial Crime — Monthly Microlearning

Short 5–10 minute modules that reinforce priority topics and keep financial crime risks top of mind throughout the year. These consistent touchpoints help demonstrate a thoughtful, ongoing training framework — particularly important as FINTRAC places increasing emphasis on effective compliance programs.
