Purpose and Philosophy
The 2017 GBA Advanced Compliance School will build on the basic foundation by providing more practical application discussions for individual lending, deposit, and operational regulations as well as for your overall compliance management program.
Curriculum
The GBA Advanced Compliance School curriculum is designed to help students to: establish and complete an effective compliance risk assessment; set up and administer an effective compliance training program; perform a detailed analysis of your fair lending data; take a deeper dive into the current trends in BSA/AML; study a detailed analysis of HMDA and see how it drives other areas of regulatory focus; learn about comprehensive complaint management, including effective root cause analysis; and numerous other topics to help take your bank’s compliance program to the next level. A detailed curriculum and course descriptions will be available in September.
