Compliance Resource

What Compliance Resource does

Compliance Resource, LLC is a private US-based compliance training and education company founded in 2011 and headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina (with a Kentucky LLC mailing address in Louisville). It serves banks, credit unions, and mortgage companies, providing regulatory compliance training across BSA/AML, Fair Lending, HMDA, TRID, Flood Insurance, CRA, and other federal banking rules. The company is led by Managing Partner Trey Sullivan, Executive Vice President of Risk and Compliance Kimberly Boatwright (CRCM, CAMS), and a faculty that includes founder and senior consultant Jack Holzknecht, whose 43-year training career has reached more than 130,000 bankers.

The platform is built on web-based webinar delivery, an e-commerce Compliance Marketplace with 227+ products (recordings, training manuals, policies, risk assessments, checklists), and a community forum segmented by regulation with 1,700+ posts. Distribution combines self-serve individual session registration, multi-part training series, in-person regional seminars, and a flagship enterprise-tier membership called the Compliance Masters Group (CMG) with 250+ member institutions, institution-wide access, 24 annual training sessions, peer discussions, and an Ask the Expert service.

The business model spans five revenue streams: (1) one-time individual webinar purchases at $325 per 90-minute session; (2) tiered Training Packs (4/6/8/12) offering 15–30% volume discounts with credits usable across sessions; (3) CMG annual subscriptions starting at $2,995 with quarterly billing scaled to institution asset size; (4) multi-part training series priced at $1,300–$1,495; and (5) à la carte marketplace products. GTM is hybrid: self-serve and PLG for individual buyers, direct enterprise sales for CMG, and event-driven live seminars as both delivery and acquisition channel. The company is privately held with no disclosed external funding.
