About CAMS-Audit
CAMS-Audit is an advanced ACAMS specialty credential for experienced AML professionals who audit anti-money-laundering programs. It goes beyond CAMS to certify the skills needed to plan, execute, and report independent AML audits.
It's built for those who already hold CAMS and want to specialize in the testing-and-audit pillar — turning regulatory expectations into audit scopes, sampling methodologies, and findings that drive remediation.
Naming note: ACAMS is rolling out a rebrand of this credential to “Certified AFC Auditor” — same exam content. We'll update naming as the rebrand completes.
Format
Advanced ACAMS specialty — requires an active CAMS certification. Administered by ACAMS; confirm current eligibility, format, and fees on the ACAMS site.
