ICA Advanced Certificate in Managing Fraud
Course level : Level 4 - Intermediate
The next intake for this course begins on 29 March 2021.
According to the latest PwC Global Economic Crime and Fraud Survey, 47% of companies have experienced fraud in the past 24 months with a total reported loss of US$42bn. Kristin Rivera, PwC Global Forensics Leader, says “when it comes to preventing and tackling fraud, our research shows that a dollar invested now is worth twice as much when fraud.”
With the onset of the global recession and increasing levels of Covid-19 related fraud, now is not the time to cut corners in your fraud risk management approach.
The qualification is designed to give you actionable, practical knowledge so that you can implement key fraud management strategies in your firm.
