Recognition and certification
In 2025, the International Anti Crime Academy submitted the Certified Global Sanctions Investigator® course for assessment to the Center for Post Initial Education (CPION). This organization acts as the official point of contact for educational institutions that want their post -initial training to register as a recognized register training. The CPION is responsible for guaranteeing the quality of, among others, the Permanent Education Netherlands Foundation (SPEN). Only courses that meet strict quality criteria are eligible for the designation 'Registering training' and are also included in the Dutch Database Training Database.
A requirement for registration at De Spen is that the curriculum offered, in this case the Certified Global Sanctions Investigator® course, meets the expectations of a register training in the field of level, depth, topicality and relevance for the labor market, as assessed by the expert Advisory Committee associated with the Institute. In the assessment of a register training, various elements such as content, duration, number of teaching hours, study tax, practical assignments, exam assignments, and the like are assessed and monitored by this advisory committee.
The above procedure has resulted in the International Anti Crime Academy being entitled to award a registered and recognized diploma for the training:
Certified Global Sanctions Investigator®
The International Anti Crime Academy has established an external advisory committee for sanction research for guaranteeing the quality and labor market relevant of the Certified Global Sanctions Investigator (CGSI) course. This committee consists of professionals who work in the financial sector, including compliance, supervision and financial investigation, both within public and private institutions.
The Advisory Committee supervises and provides advice with regard to the connection of the Certified Global Sanctions Investigator® course on the practice in the aforementioned sectors on the labor market.
