You will be notified and reminded of the dates of these workshops through CMA’s electronic portal.
Accordingly, and as part of the workshops in which the financial institutions (FIs) are a party, your compliance officers are required to participate in the aforementioned awareness workshops by registering through the link below, noting that participation will be open for all your employees. We would like to note that the CMA, after each awareness workshop, will send a survey to all licensed persons on the workshop’s evaluation.
