Professionals choose EduDelphi for structured explanation, trainer support, flexible online delivery and exam-focused preparation.
“The CCM preparation helped me connect AML, KYC, sanctions and regulatory reporting instead of studying them as separate topics. The mock exams were especially useful for planning the longer exam.”
“I already knew parts of AML and KYC, but the course helped me understand the manager view: governance, escalation, systems, documentation and how to explain decisions to senior stakeholders.”
“The live sessions and recordings made it possible to study alongside work. I liked that the trainer explained practical examples rather than just reading slides.”

FAQs
Certified Compliance Manager Course FAQs
Common questions about the GCI CCM certification, online compliance manager training, exam format, fees, syllabus and career outcomes.
What is the Certified Compliance Manager certification by GCI?
The Certified Compliance Manager, or CCM, is a Global Compliance Institute certification for professionals who need broad compliance and AML management knowledge across KYC, AML/CFT, sanctions, regulatory compliance, FATCA/CRS, investigations, monitoring, reporting and compliance technology systems.
Is this an online Certified Compliance Manager course?
Yes. EduDelphi delivers CCM preparation through live online classes, LMS recordings and self-paced options, so learners can prepare from any country without attending a physical classroom.
What is the GCI CCM exam pattern?
As per current GCI information, the CCM exam is 180 minutes long, includes 150 multiple-choice questions and requires a passing score of 75/100 with at least 50% in each chapter. Results are displayed after submission.
How many questions are in the Certified Compliance Manager exam?
The official GCI CCM exam currently includes 150 multiple-choice questions. This is why CCM preparation needs more study planning and exam stamina than shorter 50-question specialist certification routes.
What is the passing score for the GCI CCM exam?
GCI currently lists a passing score of 75 out of 100 for CCM, with a minimum of 50% required in each chapter. Candidates should always confirm the latest scoring rules on the official GCI website before registration.
Is the GCI CCM exam online proctored?
GCI describes online proctored access and instructor-led routes through GCI or accredited training centres. Final scheduling, technology requirements, candidate rules and exam access are governed by GCI’s current policies.
Which languages are available for the CCM exam?
GCI currently lists English, Arabic, Turkish and French for CCM. Language availability may change, so candidates should verify current options directly with GCI before scheduling the exam.
What does the Certified Compliance Manager syllabus cover?
The CCM syllabus covers customer onboarding and KYC, AML/CFT, advanced AML investigations, sanctions and embargoes, regulatory compliance management, FATCA/CRS, risk-rating systems, transaction monitoring, case management, name screening, reporting systems, digital identity, FinTech, AI/RPA, virtual currencies and blockchain risk.
Who should take the GCI Certified Compliance Manager course?
CCM is suitable for compliance officers, AML professionals, KYC and sanctions specialists, risk and audit professionals, MLRO pathway candidates, financial crime teams, regulators, supervisory bodies, and professionals who want broader compliance management responsibilities.
Do I need prior compliance experience for CCM certification?
Prior exposure to compliance, AML, KYC, risk, audit, operations or regulated financial services is helpful because CCM is broad and manager-level. If you are a beginner, you may still join, but you may need extra study time and guidance.
Is CCM better than RCS for regulatory compliance roles?
CCM is broader and more manager-level, covering compliance and AML programme management across multiple areas. RCS is more focused on regulatory compliance specialist work such as regulatory expectations, monitoring, examinations and reporting. The better option depends on your target role.
What is the difference between CCM and KYCS?
KYCS focuses deeply on Know Your Customer, customer due diligence, onboarding and customer risk assessment. CCM includes KYC as one part of a wider compliance management programme that also covers AML/CFT, sanctions, FATCA/CRS, monitoring, investigations and reporting.
Is CCM the same as CAMS or an AML certification?
No. CAMS is a dedicated AML credential from ACAMS and is preferred by some employers for AML specialist roles. CCM is a GCI compliance manager credential that includes AML/CFT but also covers KYC, sanctions, regulatory compliance, FATCA/CRS, monitoring systems and governance.
How is EduDelphi different from GCI self-study?
GCI self-study is suited to candidates who can prepare independently. EduDelphi adds trainer-led classes, practical examples, LMS recordings, quizzes, mock exams, study planning, doubt support and career guidance so preparation is more structured.
Does EduDelphi issue the CCM certificate?
No. The official CCM certificate is issued by Global Compliance Institute after you pass the GCI assessment. EduDelphi provides training, exam-preparation support, LMS resources, mocks and guidance.
How much does the GCI CCM certification cost?
GCI currently displays USD 1,099 as the official CCM programme price on its website. EduDelphi training/package fees may vary depending on learning mode, batch, region and whether official GCI components are bundled or separate.
Does the EduDelphi course fee include the official GCI exam fee?
It depends on the current package and offer. Some packages may bundle official components while others may separate training fees from GCI exam or programme costs. Our advisor will share a written fee breakup before enrolment.
Can I take this Certified Compliance Manager course from the USA, UK, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, India or South Africa?
Yes. The training is delivered online, with live and self-paced options for learners across multiple time zones, including the USA, UK, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, India, South Africa, Europe, Africa and Asia-Pacific.
