On November 21-22, the Law Enforcement Academy of the Republic of Uzbekistan is hosting an international research-to-practice conference "Global Law Enforcement Challenges and Threats: Present-day Strategies and Solutions". Among the participants are representatives of international organizations and expert community.
During the session on current challenges and threats in the field of AML/CFT and anticorruption, ITMCFM Deputy Head of Department for Coordination of Scientific and Educational Projects Olesya Trishina presented information about electronic educational services being integrated in AML/CFT staff training.
The expert emphasized the priority of using risk-based approach to reinforce theoretical knowledge.
Practical classes at INI member universities based on electronic services, such as Grafus training system, meet this goal.
"In our view, an electronic educational service is a combination of two components: a digital tool and educational content integrated into it - a set of training aids: case studies, assignments, tests, with the help of which professional skills are developed in each specific area of study.
One of the most complex, but at the same time interesting processes in which analysts are involved is financial investigations. The Grafus training system is designed for analytical skills basic training to conduct AML/CFT financial investigations based on case studies that include various typologies of economic crimes with subsequent money laundering."
The conference participants were also focused on importance of replenishing the Grafus training system with case studies based on money laundering typologies specific to different countries.
This approach will enable development of international training database containing financial investigation case studies that will be interesting for students of INI universities and AML/CFT experts.
