Thomson Reuters to Expand Firm Element eLearning Offering
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
NEW YORK, September 05, 2012 - Thomson Reuters today announced the expansion of
its online educational offerings to include the Financial Industry Regulatory
Authority's (FINRA) Firm Element CE eLearning Courses via Thomson Reuters
Accelus Training Solutions. The enhanced training offering will complement the
other Thomson Reuters Accelus solutions designed specifically for banking,
brokerage and securities firms including Compliance Complete and Accelus
Compliance Manager.
The Firm Element requires that firms who employ individuals involved in the
selling and trading of securities or who are involved in investment banking
activity must establish a formal training program to keep those individuals up-
to-date on job, product and regulation-related subjects. This will, for the
first time, provide access for users of Thomson Reuters Accelus Training
Solutions to the entire catalogue of FINRA's Firm Element training modules.
Thomson Reuters Accelus Training Solution delivers comprehensive and cost-
effective training programs that combine expert content with interactive and
engaging delivery to help firms meet their compliance and regulatory training
needs. Fully customizable courses are available that cover a wide range of
topics in categories including Induction & Awareness, Financial Crime, Business
Conduct and Governance & Risk Management, and have been delivered in 11
different languages and to over 600,000 users globally. Coupled with this,
FINRA's online courses uniquely blend their knowledge of securities rules and
regulations with industry expertise on how those rules can be practically
applied in the workplace.
"With ever-changing regulatory requirements, compliance officers are challenged
to satisfy the delivery of training and tracking of completion of compliance
courses," said Mark Schlageter, managing director, Governance, Risk and
Compliance, Thomson Reuters. "Leveraging the leading content from FINRA enables
us to further develop our interactive and engaging training solutions to drive
enterprise-wide learning, retention, understanding and regulatory adoption
across our clients' businesses."
