The A&D Forensic Institute has awarded staff members of the Afriq Group of Companies the Certified Cryptocurrency Compliance Specialist (CCCS) certification after they successfully completed the required training. The ceremony, held in Abuja from November 4 to 8, 2024, marked a significant milestone for Afriq Group’s dedication to compliance and security in the cryptocurrency sector.

Notably, Afriq Group of Companies is the first Cryptocurrency company in Africa to train over 12 staff members as Certified Cryptocurrency Compliance Specialist

During the event, Mr. Jesam Michael, CEO of Afriq Group, expressed his gratitude to the A&D Forensic Institute for their in-depth training. He acknowledged that previously, the company focused mainly on trading and profit-making in the crypto space but had now realized the value of knowledge and compliance. “We were mainly focused on making money, but A&D has helped us see the importance of a knowledge base in the crypto space,” Mr. Jesam Michael said.

A highlight of the training week was the introduction of Mrs. Faith E., Afriq Group’s new Cryptocurrency Consultant, who visited the staff on the fourth day. The CEO described her as a mentor and guide for the company’s growth. Mrs. Faith, a seasoned expert in cryptocurrency since 2016, emphasized the importance of education in the evolving technological space. She noted, “People often view technology as magic, but anything lasting over a decade is no longer a trick; it is innovation.” Mrs. Faith stressed that staying educated is essential for Afriq Group to protect its reputation and thrive within the global community, especially given the challenges of operating in a sensitive and risky sector.

She also highlighted how this training would elevate the staff’s capabilities and open new career paths for them. “This training benefits you as individuals first, making you certified specialists, which is recognized internationally,” she said. Mrs. Faith urged the participants to make the most of their knowledge and continue learning to strengthen Afriq Group’s position in the market.

After completing their certification exams, the staff received their CCCS certificates. Mr. Martin, CEO of Farm Trading, joined the ceremony to present the certification to Mr. Jesam Michael as a newly certified Cryptocurrency Investigator. In his remarks, Mr. Martin praised the achievement as a positive step for compliance in the industry and emphasized the balance between business operations and regulatory standards. “Work closely with management, document processes, and follow rules carefully. This way, your role as compliance officers can drive success without jeopardizing business integrity,” he advised.

The event concluded with renewed excitement and a sense of purpose among the staff, who now hold specialized expertise in cryptocurrency compliance. Mr. Jesam Michael reminded everyone to continue their dedication, noting that their work would be under the scrutiny of experts like Mrs. Faith to ensure excellence and adherence to best practices.
