eLearning: Fraud — failure to prevent

The failure to prevent fraud offence is part of a landmark piece of legislation that places the responsibility of fraud prevention onto organisations.

As a result, large companies are increasing awareness of internal fraudulent practices and actively working to prevent them.

In this course, you will start by learning about the cost and impact of fraud in the UK, before exploring the types of corporate fraud you might encounter in your role. You'll then work through a variety of scenarios to help you understand the correct actions to take when you encounter corporate fraud.

Finally, you will explore the legislation that makes the failure to prevent fraud a criminal offence. You'll be able to select your role to understand your responsibilities around fraud prevention, whistleblowing processes, and the protections available to you.
