This course is designed to help your organisation understand the nature of fraud, how and where you may be vulnerable, and its effects on your organisation.

The course will help you develop your understanding of the Irish legislation surrounding fraud, the current and emerging types of fraud, how it occurs, and the real consequences. We will explore bribery and corruption, cyber fraud, and money laundering.
