Course Description

One of the easiest and best ways to avoid fraud is to simply hire rightly. Employees represent the biggest fraud risk and threat to any organization, public or private. Hiring correctly through having written consent, thorough background investigation, and policies in place prior to hire are valuable in mitigating fraud risk. Avoidance IS prevention. Additionally, this course discusses deterrence and some ways to detect fraud in regard to employees such as hotlines and making them available.

In this course the student will learn about the value of prevention, deterrence, and considerations to make during the hiring process to avoid fraud risk by hiring rightly. Additionally, consideration is made for actionable policies and procedures to prevent and detect fraud.
