# Is annual refresher training a full repeat or a single condensed module?

## A condensed refresher module annually that recaps key concepts and incorporates regulatory updates rather than full.

The annual refresher will be a **condensed refresher module** annually that recaps key concepts and incorporates any regulatory updates from the prior 12 months, rather than full repetition of the initial training. This balances AUSTRAC's expectation of ongoing competence with practical sustainability for the firm.

What's confirmed: refresher training **is** required annually under the AML/CTF Program framework, and the platform will track and prompt for refresher completion at the appropriate cadence. What's still being firmed up: exact duration, whether it's one consolidated module or sector-specific modules, and whether the assessment is comprehensive or sample-based.

The training team will publish the refresher specification before the first annual cycle is due (mid-2027 for the earliest customers). In the meantime, training records from the initial completion satisfy the immediate launch requirement.
