Course Overview

Conducting an internal investigation can be a difficult task. An investigation into employee wrongdoing can be costly, disruptive and time-consuming. Moreover, it can lead to a variety of legal problems and other unexpected complications if it is not conducted with the utmost care and confidentiality. However, a well-run internal investigation can enhance your company's overall well-being and can help detect the source of lost funds, identify responsible parties and recover losses. It can also provide a defense to legal charges by terminated or disgruntled employees. But perhaps, most important, an internal investigation will signal to all employees that your company does not tolerate fraud!

Objective:

The 2-day training Conducting Internal Investigations will prepare you for every step of an internal investigation into potential fraud, from receiving the initial allegation to testifying as a witness. You will learn to lead an internal investigation with accuracy and confidence by gaining knowledge about various topics, such as relevant legal aspects, using computers, collecting and analyzing internal and external information, interviewing witnesses and writing reports. The training includes a relevant case study, which you will work through from beginning to end. In a nutshell you will learn how to:

Assess the risk of fraud within your organization and respond when it is identified
Detect and investigate fraud with the use of data analytics
Collect documents and electronic evidence needed in the course of an investigation
Perform effective information-gathering and admission-seeking interviews
Discern legal and regulatory concerns related to internal investigations
