Alpha AML training searchers: training brand versus your own program

People who search for Alpha AML training are usually looking for a course brand. A course can help staff learn; it does not become the firm’s AML/CTF program, and it does not enrol the firm.

Quick answer

Ask three questions of any course, including one sold under a brand you typed into search. Does it cover the designated services you provide, or a generic module written for a bank. Who attended, and where is that written down. Who inside the firm still approves the program; a certificate with another company’s name does not answer the third question; FreeAML does not sell that course and does not certify staff.

People search “alpha aml training” when someone in the firm typed a training brand into search and is about to treat a certificate as the AML program. Checked against AUSTRAC’s AML/CTF training page on 4 October 2026. This is general information, not legal advice. This page does not reproduce that guidance. What a course is for, in general, is the AML course page. The firm’s own training duty is AML/CTF training. The sector map is /tranche-2.

A brand is a course. The program is yours.

Navigational searches land on a provider’s name. That is a normal way to find a classroom. It is a poor way to decide that the firm has met its training duty. Your program names who must be trained, on which services, and how attendance is recorded.

A brand course might be one way those people learn. It might also be a generic module that never mentions a conveyance, a trust account, or a listing. This page does not review Alpha’s modules and does not link you to an enrolment form.

  • Match the services. Training that never mentions your designated services does not discharge a program written for those services.
  • Record the people. A firm-wide claim that staff were trained needs names and dates, not a single shared login.
  • Keep the program separate. The course does not appoint the compliance officer and does not customise the starter kit.
  • Do not outsource enrolment. No training brand enrols the firm with AUSTRAC.

Where the training-brand page stops

This page separates a training brand from the firm’s program. It is not a course catalogue, and it is not the training duty written out in full. Those are the AML course page and AML/CTF training.

What the client pays

On FreeAML the firm suite is A$0. The firm emails the client a link. Verification is client-pays. On the public list a personal KYC check is A$20 and a company or trust KYB check is A$40. Use KYB when the customer is a company or a trust. The firm suite does not include a training certificate, and it does not include Alpha’s course. Confirm the live amounts on FreeAML pricing. FreeAML does not provide Alpha AML training, certify your staff, or approve your program.
