Overview

Fraud claims hundreds of thousands of victims every year, and with technology facilitating ever-more sophisticated online attacks and deception scams, these numbers are set to keep rising.The impact of fraudulent activity on individuals and companies can be far-reaching; inevitable financial losses are commonly accompanied by psychological and emotional trauma for the victims. In an age of evolving technology, it is vital to remain vigilant and set up counter measures to help combat fraud at a personal and organisational level.

This Counter Fraud online course has been developed by training specialists, and examines the different types of fraud active today as well as the role and responsibilities of the individual when suspecting fraud. It looks at the threat and impact upon organisations and what the employees response should be when fraudulent activity is uncovered.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
