For new and experienced persons, there is the upcoming ABA/ABA AML Conference in October. Is the best conference to keep updated. Also, get some reference materials from established companies, like the vendors listed in this site. Also, get the regulations (print and read them) and each agency examinations guidelines. Also, subscribe to the free email alerts from regulatory agencies, OFAC, FinCEN and the IRS. There are also other things, like keep reading this site, getting some specialized magazines, listening to the webinars set by BOL, etc. There is so much information out there, the problem is to find the time to read or listen to everything.
