Fraud Detection Certificate

Fraud Detection Certificate Course

All businesses should have in place a set of policies and procedures that deter people from committing fraud. Unfortunately, fraud remains a common problem across many industries.
The financial sector is particularly vulnerable to these crimes. Fortunately, there are many steps you can take to prevent fraud and minimise the damage if a crime has already occurred.
 
In this course, you will learn the underlying principles of fraud detection, what fraud detection looks like in practice and the most common challenges people investigating suspected fraud tend to encounter.

 

You Will Learn:

  • Why fraud detection is important and why learning how to spot patterns is an essential skill in investigating fraud
  • How to look for clues that may point to future instances of fraud
  • How to identify anomalies in records and processes by analysing data
  • The challenges that face data auditors when trying to identify fraudulent activity and how to use analytics to identify red flags
  • How to detect credit card fraud using decision trees and algorithms

Benefits of Taking This Course:

  • Anyone who owns a business or occupies a senior position will benefit from this course, as it contains essential information that will help guard a company against fraud.
  • If you are an employee, knowing how and why fraud occurs will help you play your role in flagging anomalies, which could ultimately save your company a lot of time and money.
  • If you are responsible for recruiting new employees, this course will help you take their financial background into consideration when deciding whether to make an offer.
  • If you are interested in criminal law, this course will provide you with a useful insight into fraud and fraud detection.

As a PA of a very fast moving company, having many situations thrown at me day to day, I decided to take the Level 3 Admin & PA Diploma course to ensure I was up to scratch within my job role. Although I knew a lot of what was within the course, there were many topics I hadn’t had to use before but since had to.

I found the course very easy to understand and relate to. It was interesting and factual which is brilliant for anyone that would like to improve their PA skills or for someone starting out as a PA.

I enjoyed the course and feel I have bettered myself and my job role as a PA

Very informative and interesting to read. Having it broken down into very manageable sections makes it easy to absorb your new found knowledge.

Kathleen Walker

A brilliant course which was very informative and I really enjoyed it. Very difficult test at the end so you do really need to read through every module to do the test and pass it.

I will be recommending it to all my friends for sure. The bonus is I have access to this information forever. So I can revisit it anytime I like, how great is that??? I think its amazing personally.

Jay Harper

The course was very easy to navigate and very informative. I have gained so much information from this course - it is amazing to know I have learnt so much from this and it is even better that you can do it in your own time and no one pushing you.

Shaun Mulryne

I am over the moon with my experience in completing my first online course with New Skills Academy. I found the whole process quick and efficient and the site very easy to navigate. I found it helpful to complete short tests at the end of each module as I feel this help to review the information I have read and confirm that I understood it and could retain the information as well. I found the course to be very well written and the information provided to be interesting and relevant to the course and the final test to be efficient in recapping everything I had learnt throughout the course. I completely the course quite quickly as was able to study using my iPhone as the course was iOS compatible which I found to be the best way of accessing the course, information and tests. I'm thrilled that I passed my first course and can't wait to get started on the next one. Thank you for such a positive and rewarding experience.

his is a really great course, its content is really useful.

It’s great value for money and it’s not at all stressful. It’s so easy to understand, yet it covers complex aspects regarding safe practices. It let’s you stop and start the course, which means I can still work in a full time job, which won’t effect me financially.

This has been the best decision to complete this course. I’m really keen to learn more skills, and maybe do a few more courses to expand my skills set. I will most definitely be using New Skills Academy to help me!
