The US Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection
Act is the most significant piece of legislation concerning the
financial services industry in about 80 years. What does it mean for
risk and compliance management professionals? It means new
challenges, new jobs, new careers, new opportunities.
The bill establishes new risk management and corporate
governance principles, sets up an early warning system to protect
the economy from future threats, and brings more transparency and
accountability. It also amends important sections of the Sarbanes
Oxley Act. For example, it significantly expands whistleblower
protections under the Sarbanes Oxley Act and creates additional
anti-retaliation requirements.

Frequently
Asked Questions
1. How comprehensive are the slides? Are they just
bullet points? Answer: The slides are not just bullet
points, you can read them, understand and learn. But, they are not a
book. These are the official slides we use in our instructor led
classes.2. Do I need to buy books to pass the
exam? Answer: No. If you study the slides carefully, you
can pass the exam. If you fail the first time, it is not a
failure, it is an opportunity to study more. Print the slides and
use Post-it to attach notes like "COSO" "Operational Risk" etc. to
know where to find the answer of the material you do not remember.
3. Is it an open book exam? Why?
Answer: Yes, it is an open book exam. How to lead an organization,
exercise oversight and help to to achieve objectives is not
something you have to memorize, it is something you have to
understand.
4. Do I have to sit
for the exam soon after receiving the presentations?
Answer: No. You can sit for the exam from your office or home any
time in the future. We will create an online account that never
expires.
5. Do I have to spend
more money in the future to remain certified? Does the
certification lose its value after some time? Answer:
No. Your certificate never expires. It will be valid without the
need to spend money or to sit for another exam in the future.
6. Ok, the certificate never expires,
but things change... Answer: If a university degree
never expires, why should our certificate expire? Yes, things
change, and exactly this is the reason you need to become a member
of the Association. Membership is free. You will receive a monthly
newsletter with updates, alerts and opportunities to remain
current. There is no cost for that.
7. How many hours do I need to study in
order to pass the exam? Answer: It depends on your
knowledge and experience. You must study the presentations
carefully. You must go through the slides another time, and ensure
you have learned the details. It will take 30 - 50 hours.
8. I want to learn more about the
online exam. Answer: You will be given 90 minutes to
complete a 35 question multiple-choice exam. You must score 70% or
higher.
9. Why should I be
certified? Answer: After the failures of so many
organizations during the current market crisis, and the risk that
shareholders may sue senior management and the board of directors
for gross negligence, there is a need for a much better
understanding in risk and compliance management.
Organizations need assurance that the board has the knowledge and
skills to mitigate risks and to accept more responsibility.
Supervisors and auditors ask for independent evidence that the
board is capable to exerce oversight.
It is important to be
certified and to belong to professional associations. You prove
that you are somebody who cares, learns, and belongs to a global
community of professionals.
10.
Why should I choose your certification program? Answer:
It is always wise to investigate first. You may search for other
programs. If you choose our distance learning and online
certification program:
1. You receive the training material
(the official presentations of the instructor-led class). 2.
You can pass the exam. There are 3 exams that are included in the
price, so you do not have to pay again if you fail. 3. You do
not need to spend money or to sit for another exam again in the
future to remain certified. Your certificate never expires.
4. You become member to the Association and receive monthly
updates, news and alerts. 5. You become known to 15+ of the
