Course overview

In today’s increasingly complex and high-risk business environment, fraud remains one of the most significant threats to organizations across all sectors. Whether through asset misappropriation, financial misstatement, procurement fraud, or collusion, fraudulent activity can cause severe financial loss, reputational damage, and legal consequences. While no system can eliminate fraud risk entirely, robust internal controls can significantly deter, detect, and mitigate fraudulent behavior before it escalates.

This comprehensive course is designed to equip participants with the knowledge and practical tools needed to identify fraud vulnerabilities and implement effective internal controls. It begins by establishing a foundational understanding of fraud, including the psychology behind it, common schemes, and methods used by perpetrators.

The course then delves into the design and application of internal control frameworks, with an emphasis on preventive, detective, and corrective mechanisms that align with internationally recognized standards such as the COSO Internal Control Framework.

    1. Understand the fundamental concepts and types of fraud within organizations.

IN HOUSE AND ONLINE TRAINING

in

While both In-House and Online training can present with cost-effectiveness and time-efficacy, there are some very specific differences between in-house courses and those based online.
The demand for additional courses by individuals or groups of people is increasing. Still, it depends entirely on the preferences of a person what type of training he or she wants to receive. Online courses and in-house training carry some similarities but they are considered to exhibit some very pivotal differences too. Despite that, both types of learning can be really beneficial for attendees.
