In Practice: Financial Crime Prevention

The Cifas Fraud and Cyber Academy In Practice courses are designed for busy professionals operating across a range of functions and roles who wish to gain an efficient yet comprehensive foundation in the prevention and investigation of financial crime, with an exclusive focus on acquiring practical skills and knowledge that allows you to immediately apply your learning in the workplace. 

Our In Practice courses do not include pre-or-ongoing course work, exams or post-course assignments, and are accredited by Cifas Fraud and Cyber Academy. In Practice courses are ideal for professionals who do not need the more detailed study that a fraud and risk specialist may require, but who work in fields where they directly or indirectly encounter or manage instances of financial crime, including:

  • Operations
  • Finance
  • Human Resources
  • Compliance
  • IT and Security
  • Legal
  • Internal Audit and Risk
     

Fraud and risk professionals are still welcome to undertake In Practice courses as a time-saving initiative, to establish a knowledge foundation, or to undertake a refresher. Some In Practice courses can be used to fast-track your progress on specific Professional Certificates for those who wish to go on to acquire an accredited qualification – please check the individual course details to see if this applies. 

Module details

In Practice: Financial Crime Prevention 

This course has been written in response to the government’s drive to increase corporate criminal liability by the implementation of the ‘failure to prevent’ offences under the UK Bribery Act 2010, Criminal Finance Act 2017 and the recent Economic Crime & Corporate Transparency Act 2023. 

It will provide you with an efficient yet detailed introduction to creating and implementing organisational fraud prevention strategies that consider the new legislation, making it the most up-to-date learning on the market.

Your knowledge will support the practical application of the legislation, entirely focussed on creating an effective fraud prevention strategy to equip you with the necessary skills and understanding to apply your learning immediately back into the workplace.
