Adtalem Global Education and its family of institutions and companies are committed to serving as responsible community citizens. We provide community support to charitable and civic organizations globally that share Adtalem’s values. Adtalem is aligned with the medical, nursing and healthcare communities, helping to cover costs of medical services and supplies for groups in need. Students and faculty from our medical and healthcare institutions regularly provide healthcare services at local health fairs, as well. Our Financial Services businesses support groups that align with their areas of expertise. ACAMS® actively contributes to organizations that combat human trafficking, reflecting one of the target areas of their anti-money laundering professionals, and as a reflection of Becker Professional Education’s CPA prep courses, Adtalem has provided support for tax assistance and financial literacy programs.
ACAMS actively supports numerous organizations that combat human slavery and trafficking — both sources of illegally laundered funds.
