This half-day program provides non-profit organizations (NPOs) an understanding of effective internal controls and fraud prevention. It covers topics such as fraud detection and prevention, misappropriation of assets, uncovering fraudulent financial statements, and effectiveness of internal controls. The program includes presentations, discussions, workshops and case studies. It aims to help NPOs protect their assets from increasing risks by developing awareness and sound internal control systems. The speakers are certified fraud examiners with investigation experience handling financial institution fraud cases.
With a zero tolerance level in Money Laundering and associated large regulatory penalties for non compliance, Banks and other Financial Institutes are spending immense time, effort and money to achieve compliance. Needless to say, it is still not enough. The Black Swan can enter into any Financial Institute’s Branch on any given day and sting the Bank by surprise.
The implementation of a formal and a structured AML Mitigation and oversight system and processes that effectively identify, assess, and manage such risk within acceptable levels is a challenge. Therefore, awareness about the menace of money laundering and thorough understanding of the antimony laundering process and its current trends at all levels of staff of a bank/FI are ever growing necessities.
Awaiting your valuable nominations/enquiries to make the programs mutually beneficial and successful. Please email manoj.jain@riskpro.in or contact at 98337 67114 for more details.

It will happen when you least expect it. There will always be allegation of fraud and
employee misdemeanour. This is a perennial truth. The question that needs to be addressed
is how do we go about managing such allegations.
In recent years, a variety of laws and regulations have emerged in Singapore and Malaysia,
providing organizations with an array of criteria to incorporate into their antifraud
efforts. But for all practical purpose there is no law on managing fraud allegation.
In the wake of high-profile corporate scandals as well as new regulations worldwide,
many business leaders are increasingly aware of the need to create company-specific
antifraud measures to address internal corporate fraud and employee misconduct.
While acknowledging that no single approach to fraud risk management can fit every
organizations needs, this seminar focus on key practices that organizations have
generally found to be effective when tailoring a company-specific fraud allegation
investigation program and offers a strategic approach to aligning corporate values
with employees performance.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation, financial institutions and merchants are always on
the lookout for scam artists. One of the most common and unregulated industry where
fraud is most prevalent and perpetrated on a daily basis is in the area of Management
Consultancy. Almost every unemployed and unemployable individual calls themselves
Management CONsultants.
The technique to know whether you have been a victim is to examine the deliverables.
Look at the concepts closely. If they cannot even get the fundamentals right, you know
that it is REALLY a CONsultancy firm.
Financial Statement Fraud training by Tommy SEAHTommy Seah
Every company maneuvers the numbers to a certain extent to achieve budgets
and get bonuses. This is nothing new. But sometimes, companies take the factfudging
too far. Factors such as greed, desperation, immorality and bad judgment
drive some executives to commit financial statement fraud.
As evidenced by the catastrophic collapse of numerous corporations over the
past few years, financial statement fraud is a serious threat to any business’ economic
well-being. The existence and persistence of financial statement fraud is by
far the most expensive in terms of both absolute dollars and long term damage.
Recognising the challenges that organisations are facing in combating Financial
Statement Fraud, ProEdge Global is pleased to present this 2-day Workshop on
Financial Statement Fraud. This will serve as an excellent opportunity to learn how
best to protect your organization and step up on controls to prevent fraud.
This program offers a broad overview of the different types of financial & accounting
fraud while focusing on Financial Statement Fraud. Lead by a world renowned
financial fraud specialist, this workshop will examine the theories and practical
techniques and measures to combat Financial Statement Fraud and other financial
fraud. Thus, preventing organisations from becoming the next fraud victim.

1. Managements today, in their hunger for success and appreciation of shareholders equity tend to forget the core essence behind the words in their vision and mission statements, corporate social responsibilities, duties towards employees etc. A whistleblowing encourages honest culture, promotes transparency, establishes clear communication within and outside the organisation, and keeps the key individual from abusing their powers.
2. Whistle-blowing bolstered by the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act is not only become a tool seen by regulators when it comes to leaving penalties but is a core pillar of a compliance program.
3. Though Whistle-blowing has been seen for snitches and glory seekers, it has undoubtedly become a symbol and tool to promote integrity.

Land Investments Expo 2014, KICC Nairobi KenyaSam Morara
LAND OWNERSHIP increases productivity through access to credit and greater on-land investment. Paying attention to which and where a land is available makes the Land Investments Expo a worthwhile event for both local and international investors.
Businesses behind this unique property event are industry players with the desire to position and sell property that would fetch valuable returns to the buyer.
How will this EFRM course benefit you?
After completion you will be able to:
• identify risks which could result in fraud
• provide recommendations to executive / senior management in managing fraud risk
• identify warning signs of fraud in operational audits
• develop Fraud ICQ to look at fraud issues
Dear Delegates,
Corporate fraud costs businesses hundreds of millions of dollars each year. It affects livelihoods and is a common
cause of corporate failure. It is the responsibility of the board of directors to prevent fraud by putting in places the
appropriate controls and review procedures. This program shows you why Accounting Information System (AIS)
Threats are ever increasing. Control risks have also increased in the last few years because there are computers
and servers everywhere, and information is available to an unprecedented number of workers. Distributed
computer networks make data available to many users, and these networks are harder to control than centralized
mainframe systems. With the introduction of 3 levels of COSO and value driven ERM, things should be under
control. Recent events at SATYAM proves that in reality things are getting out of control. So, what went wrong ?
Is it time to train the auditors ?
Recognising the challenges that organisations are facing in combating Fraud, CSI In Practice is pleased to present
this 2-days Workshop on Enterprise Fraud Risk Management. This will serve as an excellent opportunity to learn how
best to conduct an internal investigation to protect your organization and step up on controls to deter fraud.

Most companies have ethics and compliance policies in place and those policies usually include training for employees. That training typically includes material about policies prohibiting discrimination and harassment, bribery and excessive gift-giving. But it usually does not teach employees how to recognize signs of fraud and how to report them.
Employee fraud awareness training is one of the most important ways your company can protect itself from fraud which, according to the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners, costs the average company five per cent of its revenues every year.

Procurement fraud is a clear and present risk for organisations across all sectors. The move to outsourced services has created the opportunity for fraud to occur any stage of the contract process. Exploitation of an organisations purchasing, procurement and contract systems can cause untold damage in terms of revenue and reputation. However with appropriate controls, accountable tendering processes and strict prevention strategies the opportunities for fraud can be significantly reduced.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
