Not all courses are created equal — and not all deserve to be accredited.
In an industry where trust, compliance, and quality are paramount, ONRIGA sets a structured benchmark for evaluating professional training programs. Our accreditation process ensures that the courses we approve — whether for Standard, Silver, or Gold seals — deliver real value, measurable outcomes, and align with global compliance standards.
So, what exactly makes a course “ONRIGA Compliant”?
Let’s break it down.
1. Structured & Outcome-Based Content
Courses must go beyond surface-level theory. We look for:
-
Well-organized modules with progressive learning
-
Clear learning objectives for each section
-
Practical applicability in fields like AML, KYC, due diligence, fraud, or RegTech
-
Real-world relevance to current industry challenges
Whether it’s an e-learning module, live class, or hybrid format — structure is key.
2. Qualified Instructors or Institutions
Credibility starts with who’s teaching. We review:
-
The qualifications and experience of instructors or academic leads
-
The track record of the training provider or institution
-
Previous delivery of the course, reviews, and learner engagement
Accreditation is not just about content — it’s about the people behind it.
3. Assessments & Verification
Every ONRIGA Compliant course must include some form of:
-
Graded assessment, case studies, or project work
-
Knowledge checks or final evaluations
-
Secure learner verification (such as email, ID, or LMS logins)
We need to see that learners aren’t just watching — they’re learning and proving it.
4. Platform Usability & Accessibility
We evaluate the user experience of the course platform:
-
Is it easy to navigate?
-
Can learners access material without friction?
-
Is the course mobile and browser-friendly?
-
Are support systems (live chat, helpdesk, FAQ) in place?
A great course should be both powerful and accessible.
5. Compliance Alignment
Finally — and most importantly — we ensure the course aligns with global compliance expectations:
-
AML and KYC regulations
-
FATF and regional guidelines
-
Industry best practices in risk management and due diligence
-
Ethical frameworks and real-world compliance challenges
Courses that align with outdated or local-only standards may not meet ONRIGA’s global benchmark.
What Seal Will You Receive?
After a full review, ONRIGA assigns your course one of the following:
-
Standard Seal: Meets basic global compliance and structural benchmarks
-
Silver Seal: Includes enhanced assessments, structure, and broader application
-
Gold Seal: Delivers exceptional value, strong outcomes, and premium alignment with global best practices
Tip: You can apply for a specific tier, but ONRIGA will validate whether your course truly meets that level. If it doesn’t, we may recommend a lower tier with upgrade suggestions.
Final Thought
Being ONRIGA Compliant means your course has been independently reviewed, validated, and verified to meet the highest levels of professional trust.
In a world filled with generic, unverified training programs — your course can stand apart.
If you’re ready to get accredited, make sure your course is built not just to inform — but to transform.
