Seventh Wave are delighted to launch a brand new two-day course on Compliance And Player Protection run in partnership with KnowNow Ltd and Rightway Compliance. Aimed at senior manages within the gambling sector, this masterclass is designed to give senior business leaders all of the knowledge, understanding and information they need to create and maintain a business wide player protection culture.
Now is the time for operators to act and it is important that we don’t view compliance and player protection as a regulatory tick box exercise.

This course is a collaboration between three organisations whose experts work very closely with all stakeholders across the gambling industry to provide high quality information. We will focus on informing participants about safer gambling measures from two main perspectives – legal and ethical.
The two days will consist of informative and interactive sessions designed to give you a high level understanding, provoke thought around the areas of AML and RG and utilise the tools available to promote compliance and best practice across all areas of the business.
All delegates will be required to roll up their sleeves and get involved in team exercises, roll plays and open conversation. Our experience shows that this is the best way to ensure delegates leave with a thorough understanding of the topic and a desire to maximise their efforts in this critical, fast moving area of business.
