Anti-Fraud Skills Lab: Between Innovation and History

Auditors and all authorities involved in detecting fraud and corruption need to gain the relevant skills and mindset to understand the mind of fraudsters – those of the past and those of the present. A rich history can teach us many lessons that are still valid today. What better place to learn from history than beautiful Naples, one of the oldest cities in the western world?

Jo Kremers, our EU anti-fraud expert, will guide you inside and outside the classroom in this new intensive course. He will show you the newest innovative techniques and provide you with useful tools for analyzing real-life cases and successfully combating fraud.

Participants receive a certificate upon participation.

Starting from € 2650,- (excl. VAT)

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. Under professional coaching and guidance, enthusiastic teams are competing for the best results and a real reward.

Besides expert presentations, the sessions will include discussions and exchange of national (best) practices as well as expert guidance on how to best implement and apply the foreseen measures and strategies in your country.
