Risky Business | Identifying, Preventing, & Responding to Fraud

Location:

University Library 16

Facilitated By:

Howard Lutwak

Description:

Fraud occurs even in the college and university environment. In this course you will gain an understanding of the types of fraud that occur at colleges and universities. Many of our campuses have been victims of fraud from internal and external perpetrators. While the internet and computers have made some aspects of our work easier, they have also opened up new methods, such as phishing, for fraudsters to exploit. You will be presented with several case studies of actual frauds and will learn what led to the fraud and how it could have been prevented.

After completing this course, you will be able to:
• Identify various types of fraud
• Understand common fraud schemes in the university environment
• Spot behavior patterns that might indicate pressure to commit fraud
• Implement controls that can reduce the occurrence of fraud
• Take appropriate action if fraud is suspected
