In India’s rapidly evolving compliance environment, governance and risk management are no longer static disciplines taught through manuals or slide decks. They are living functions, shaped by enforcement timelines, overlapping regulations and real-world decision-making under pressure.

Responding to this shift, FCRF Academy has begun reaching out to compliance professionals, GRC experts, regulators, technologists and legal experts to join as speakers and trainers for its upcoming programmes. The Academy has clarified that all sessions will be conducted virtually, with classes scheduled on weekends, allowing working professionals to contribute without disrupting their primary responsibilities.

Selected speakers, the Academy said, will be offered honorariums in recognition of their expertise and time, a signal that practitioner knowledge is being treated as professional capital, not voluntary commentary. Interested professionals can Click Here to Apply Now.

A Faculty Culture Built on Credibility

FCRF Academy’s outreach builds on a speaker ecosystem that has consistently drawn senior and well-regarded figures from India’s legal, regulatory and cyber governance landscape.

Past programmes and platforms hosted by FCRF have featured Justice Talwant Singh, former judge of the Delhi High Court; Dr. Pavan Duggal, senior advocate and pioneer in cyber law; and Rakesh Maheshwari, former senior official at the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology, among others.

According to the Academy, this history shapes its expectations of future speakers. “Participants expect insights from professionals who have navigated enforcement, policy and institutional constraints firsthand,” said one programme coordinator. “That is the standard we continue to look for.” Interested professionals can Click Here to Apply Now

What Expertise the Academy Is Looking For

Rather than recruiting speakers for a single course or narrow syllabus, FCRF Academy is building a panel of compliance and GRC trainers capable of addressing the interconnected nature of modern regulation.

The expertise sought spans governance frameworks, enterprise and integrated risk management, data protection and privacy operations, cyber and digital risk, sectoral regulation in banking, capital markets and insurance, third-party and vendor risk, AI governance, operational resilience, and board-level risk communication.

These focus areas mirror how compliance now functions inside organisations, where a single incident may trigger obligations under multiple laws and regulators simultaneously. Interested professionals can Click Here to Apply Now

An Invitation to the Compliance Community

The Academy’s call is open to experienced professionals willing to teach in a fully virtual format, with sessions held on weekends and designed for mid-career and senior learners. Physical presence is not required, making participation feasible for experts based anywhere in India or abroad.

Interested professionals are invited to apply through the application link to be shared by FCRF Academy. Submissions will be reviewed internally, with selections based on domain expertise, professional experience and alignment with the Academy’s practitioner-led teaching philosophy.

As compliance expectations rise and regulatory scrutiny deepens, FCRF Academy’s initiative reflects a broader recognition: the future of governance education depends not on theory alone, but on those who have worked inside the systems now being taught.
