Sessions are built around your operation’s own standards and your staff’s experience, so time goes to the areas where your team needs it.

Why train with practitioners

Our training comes from the same audit programs our staff use in the field. Curtis Von Schimmelmann has more than 30 years of experience in gaming audit, has taught accounting at the college level, and has presented at conferences and seminars.

Title 31 training is one of the required elements of a casino’s compliance program under 31 CFR 1021.210.

How the engagement runs

  1. Needs assessment

    We learn who will attend, their experience, and your TICS, SICS and recent findings, so the session addresses what your team needs.

  2. Materials

    Sessions are built from your own standards, with practical examples drawn from the audit programs we use in the field.

  3. Delivery

    We present to your internal auditors, compliance staff or regulators, with time to work through real situations and questions.

  4. Reference

    Your team keeps the materials to use in the field after the session.

Questions

Can training be tailored to our TICS?

Yes. We build sessions around the standards your operation is held to, rather than the MICS alone.

How do we arrange a session?

Request a proposal with the audience, topics and timing you have in mind, and we will respond within 48 hours.
