Global Anti-Corruption Training/Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) Training

Violating global anti-corruption laws can have a devastating reputational and financial impact on your organization; you need to empower your employees to accurately identify, prevent and report possible violations with anti-corruption training.

 Why is Anti-Corruption Training Important?

When it comes to conducting business, what might be unethical or unlawful in your country may be an accepted practice in other countries — or vice versa. As a result, employees may sometimes feel they must choose between losing business by rejecting local customs and winning business by violating laws.

How is the Anti-Corruption Training Course Information Delivered?

Through a series of scenarios and interactive exercises outlined in the anti-corruption training course, participants learn practical skills that are necessary for the detection, prevention, and reporting of corrupt practices. Course participants are asked to answer multiple choice questions where they consider the possible outcomes and implications of actions as they apply to global anti-corruption laws. A "Red Flag" exercise provides four scenarios where the learner decides if the behavior warrants a red, yellow, or green flag and drags the appropriate icon to the scenario. Detailed feedback is provided with the answers. They are also required to correctly answer five questions in a ‘Quiz Show' exercise in order to complete the course. The course ends with customized information about your organization's appropriate contact that can answer questions on anti-corruption policies and procedures and how to report related concerns.
