The new version of the Lexcel standard (‘v6.1’) became mandatory for all assessments taking place from 1 November 2018. V6.1 reflects recent changes to AML regulations. And, it places a significant emphasis upon compliance with GDPR/data protection; compliance with which we know is of great concern to many legal practices and departments.
In response to demand from clients who were unable to attend our Lexcel V6.1 Training events we recorded a webinar covering the Introduction to Lexcel V6.1.
If you are an established Lexcel firm with Recognising Excellence and would like a free copy of this recording please email lexcel@recognisingexcellence.co.uk. Additionally, if you are new to Lexcel and would like a copy to help you better understand the requirements along with a quote for the work please contact Marian.
The Lexcel V5.1 International webinar is also available.
Remote Reviews
Undertaking a Lexcel Assessment/Review without an on-site visit is proving to work well and has the full support of The Law Society.
Recognising Excellence would like to help and support you through these exceptional circumstances so we have asked one of our experienced assessors to conduct a short webinar that will help you understand how the remote process can work. This new process is not set in concrete and you can discuss different approaches with your assessor.
If you would like a copy of this webinar at no cost to yourselves, please email marian.moir@recognisingexcellence.co.uk and she will send you a copy by return.
Recognising Excellence is currently working in Partnership with an approved Cyber Essentials accreditation company ATG-IT to help you plan and implement all your cyber security needs. The main contact there is Steve McGowan and he can be contacted on steve.mcgowan@atg-it.co.uk or 01527 570535.
In the meantime, if you need any support with Cyber Essentials accreditation, I will be happy to help john.edwards@recognisingexcellence.co.uk.
