Fraud is now a serious concern for commercial and non-profit organisations alike — research by the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners and Concordia University found over 10 percent of non-profit organisations fall victim to occupational fraud. The organisations that survive it are the ones that embedded anti-fraud procedures before the loss, not after. This programme covers why people commit fraud, how to identify fraud risks, and how to establish an anti-fraud culture and organisation-wide fraud awareness. The cohort then works through building a robust fraud risk management programme — detection of large-value frauds, data analytics, computer-based forensics, and investigations that end in evidence and reports decision-makers can act on.

Frequently asked
What does the masterclass cover on fraud detection?
The detection module works through how to detect large-value frauds, data analytics for fraud detection and computer-based forensics. It sits within the full arc of the programme: why people commit fraud, identifying the fraud risks specific to your organisation, and building a robust fraud risk management programme with anti-fraud procedures embedded into systems.
Does the programme cover running an actual investigation?
Yes. The investigation module covers the purpose and scope of an investigation, forensic auditing techniques that withstand scrutiny, and the presentation of evidence and writing of investigation reports that decision-makers can act on. It is aimed at heads of compliance and legal, internal and external auditors, accountants and CXOs accountable for fraud risk.
In which languages is the masterclass delivered, and how do we obtain a quotation?
The masterclass is delivered in English and French, on a rolling calendar with dates confirmed on request. Fees and quotations are provided on enquiry. An in-house edition tailored to your organisation is also available — useful when audit, compliance and finance teams need a common anti-fraud method and vocabulary.
