SUMMARY:From Guidance to Action: Exploring Practical ERM
DESCRIPTION:Event details\n\n\n\nEnterprise risk management (ERM) too often gets treated as a compliance exercise rather than a capability that helps organizations make better choices\, execute strategy\, and create and protect value. Grounded in The Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission’s article on ERM\, co-authored with Crowe specialists\, this session will help attendees turn concepts into actionable ERM approaches. Specialists will explore how ERM can become more practical\, decision-oriented\, and connected to the business by linking risk management more directly to strategy\, governance\, and performance. \n\n\n\nAttendees will learn what stronger ERM looks like in practice\, including the disciplines\, behaviors\, and operating approaches that make risk more useful to leaders and boards. The session will also highlight lessons from organizations at different stages of ERM maturity and how those lessons can help teams move beyond check-the-box activity toward more effective\, value-focused risk management. \n\n\n\nAfter attending this session\, participants will be able to: \n\n\n\n\nIdentify ERM practices and operating disciplines that strengthen governance and support board oversight\n\n\n\nEvaluate how ERM can shift from a compliance-centered activity to a capability that supports better decisions and business value\n\n\n\nExplain how ERM can make risk more visible and actionable in support of strategy execution and performance\n\n\n\n\nContinuing professional education\n\n\n\nPrerequisites: None \n\n\n\nProgram level: Overview \n\n\n\nAdvance preparation: None \n\n\n\nDelivery method: Webinar (group internet based) \n\n\n\nField of study: Specialized knowledge \n\n\n\nThis session is recommended for 1.0 hour of CPE credit. \n\n\n\nNote: All participants MUST be logged into the webinar INDIVIDUALLY to receive CPE credit.

SUMMARY:AML Risks in Nonbank Sectors
DESCRIPTION:Event details\n\n\n\nThe fine art\, luxury goods\, insurance\, and real estate industries are drawing new attention from investors and collectors as well as from criminals and regulators. Criminals increasingly are using nonbank sectors to move illicit funds and sidestep traditional anti-money laundering (AML) controls. For financial services organizations that serve these clients\, the risk exposure is real. \n\n\n\nThis webinar will examine AML vulnerabilities in nonbank sectors such as art dealerships\, jewelry and precious metals\, insurance\, real estate\, and high-value goods. These industries often fall outside the scope of traditional regulatory scrutiny\, which creates blind spots that criminals exploit and requires compliance professionals to address evolving risk indicators\, enhanced due diligence needs\, and shifting regulatory expectations. \n\n\n\nJoin us for a walk-through of major case studies\, red flag typologies\, and enforcement takedowns that illustrate where risk is hiding in plain sight. The session will also highlight how prosecution trends can inform smarter risk assessments and what financial services organizations should do now to enhance their AML programs. Expect real-world insights\, cross-sector lessons\, and practical guidance designed to help you spot\, assess\, and act on risk. \n\n\n\nAfter attending this session\, you should be able to: \n\n\n\n\nIdentify AML red flags and typologies in art\, real estate\, precious metals\, and other nonbank sectors\n\n\n\nExplain how criminals exploit regulatory gaps to move illicit funds or evade sanctions\n\n\n\nAnalyze criminal case outcomes to apply relevant lessons to AML programs\n\n\n\nEvaluate risk indicators when onboarding or monitoring customers in high-value sectors\n\n\n\nApply investigative techniques and escalation protocols aligned with regulatory expectations\n\n\n\n\nContinuing professional education\n\n\n\nPrerequisites: None \n\n\n\nProgram level: Overview \n\n\n\nAdvance preparation: None \n\n\n\nDelivery method: Webinar (group internet based) \n\n\n\nField of study: Specialized knowledge \n\n\n\nThis session is recommended for 1.0 hour of CPE credit. \n\n\n\nNote: All participants MUST be logged into the webinar INDIVIDUALLY to receive CPE credit.

SUMMARY:Operational Alignment Across Engineering and Manufacturing 
DESCRIPTION:Event details\n\n\n\nModern product organizations rely on four critical pillars – product life cycle management (PLM)\, enterprise resource planning (ERP)\, master resource planning (MRP)\, and engineering change management – but these functions often operate in silos. In this webinar\, Crowe specialists will discuss these interconnected pillars to show how product data\, production planning\, and controlled engineering change workflows form a unified operational ecosystem. \n\n\n\nWe will explore how integrated PLM-to-ERP processes lead to more accurate bills of material and routings\, how MRP extends ERP to inform precise material and production planning\, and how clear distinctions between engineering change notices (ECNs) and engineering change orders (ECOs) prevent disruptions\, waste\, and downstream confusion. \n\n\n\nParticipants can learn how to create connected data flows from engineering through manufacturing\, strengthen traceability\, and improve decision-making across the product life cycle. The session will highlight practical challenges\, real-world impacts\, and actionable strategies organizations can implement to reduce risk\, increase efficiency\, and enable scalable growth. \n\n\n\nLearning objectives\n\n\n\nAfter attending this session\, you should be able to: \n\n\n\n\nExplain how PLM-to-ERP integration creates a single source of truth across product\, engineering\, and operational teams\n\n\n\nDifferentiate between ECNs and ECOs and identify when each should be initiated in the change process\n\n\n\nDescribe how MRP complements ERP to improve material planning\, inventory control\, and production scheduling\n\n\n\nEvaluate operational risks caused by disconnected systems and unclear change processes across PLM\, ERP\, and MRP\n\n\n\nApply best practices to streamline engineering-to-production handoffs and reduce rework\, scrap\, and planning delays\n\n\n\n\nContinuing professional education\n\n\n\nPrerequisites: None \n\n\n\nProgram level: Overview \n\n\n\nAdvance preparation: None \n\n\n\nDelivery method: Webinar (group internet based) \n\n\n\nField of study: Information technology \n\n\n\nThis session is recommended for 1.0 hour of CPE credit. \n\n\n\nNote: All participants MUST be logged into the webinar INDIVIDUALLY to receive CPE credit.
