AuditNet® & White-Collar Crime 101 LLC


Detecting and Preventing Fraud in Today’s
High-Crime Climate
2011 Series

A Special “How-To” Learning Series from AuditNet® and FraudAware®

 

Despite increased government budgeting for anti-fraud resources and new standards requiring auditors to consider fraud risk in planning and conducting audits, financial crime continues to tear at the financial and reputation fabric of businesses, government agencies and not-for-profit organizations.  No wonder we hear more and more often from stakeholders, “Where were the auditors?,” “Where were the compliance officers?” “Where were the security managers”? and “Where were the attorneys?” as the epidemics of healthcare fraud, mortgage fraud, bribery and corruption and  countless instances of costly computer and Internet crime  hit the headlines. 

 

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER

 

Now there is an authoritative, “how-to” educational opportunity for audit,  accounting, financial, compliance and legal professionals like you to:

 

  1. Understand the real cost impact of fraud to your organization

 

  1. Understand the common and not-so-common frauds that are ravaging organizations’  balance sheets and reputations

 

  1. Master proven techniques to spot the red flags of fraud committed by outsiders and insiders.

 

  1. Get the latest, most effective and efficient techniques for preventing, detecting and auditing all major types of fraud

 

  1. Design anti-fraud controls with clear and measurable results

 

Fortunately top management is demanding increasingly proactive anti-fraud practices by audit and security departments across corporate, government and not-for-profit sectors. Which is why we launched this special learning opportunity in 2010 and have now thoroughly updated it for 2011 so can obtain the skills to efficiently and effectively screen for red flags of fraud in all major business functions.
