Anti-Fraud Game: History and Modernity

Anti-Fraud Game: History and Modernity - Pictures Events 2023 20

All authorities involved in detecting fraud and corruption need to gain the relevant skills and mindset to understand the mind of fraudsters. A rich history can teach us how to understand the fraudsters of the past and, in turn, give us clues on how to catch those of the present. Would there be a better place to learn from history than Athens, one of the oldest cities in the western world?

Join this intensive course and let Jo Kremers, our EU anti-fraud expert, guide you through an exciting learning experience inside and outside the classroom. Jo will show you the newest innovative techniques and provide you with useful tools for analyzing real-life cases and successfully combating fraud committed with European funds.

Participants receive a certificate upon participation.

Our approach during this unique, attractive and highly interactive event includes the set-up of a well-structured risk analysis, focused on gathering evidence, fact finding, based on professional scepticism, by the use of the internet, open sources, data analysis and sophisticated software, and not to forget the use of your most important instruments,  combined with a more innovative way of thinking.
