Compliance and investigation functions are constantly evolving and keeping pace calls for appropriate upskilling. EY Forensics Learning-as-a-Service offers comprehensive eLearning solutions in the areas of Ethics and Compliance in bite-sized, case study-aided, subject-specific modules to learn on-the-go, from anywhere, at any time. Designed by a multidisciplinary team of EY Forensic practitioners, the modules aim to help participants gain an edge over their peers.
The Ethics and Compliance modules on anti-bribery and anti-corruption are the first of the many courses that EY Forensic & Integrity Service aims to add to the bouquet of solutions on the EY Virtual Academy. Each module demonstrates the finer nuances of detecting and preventing incidences of bribery and corruption in day-to-day situations through real-life use cases. They touch upon key bribery and corruption legislations, the consequences of violation, risks associated with unethical acts, and best practices pertaining to Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption (ABAC) through interactive and text-based content for a better understanding.
As global leaders in the forensic and integrity space, EY has helped several organizations set up robust compliance and ethics programs and is well equipped to offer insights into how future-proofing existing systems can set up firms up for success while navigating the shifting regulatory landscape.
The modules—some of which are still in the pipeline—have been hand-picked to address emerging needs and concerns as identified by industry insiders. They focus on educating about the advantages of abiding by procedures, nuances of preventing, detecting, and dealing with incidences of unethical conduct, safeguarding organizations against reputational damage, addressing potential risks such as data theft, cybercrime, conflict of interest, employee-vendor collusion, anti-bribery and anti-corruption, third-party fraud and more.
Along with legislation around the subject, exploring risks for businesses, and educating about good practices pertaining to the subject, there’s also an assessment to help professionals evaluate the success of their learning experience. This is backed by a query-management system that allows participants to ask unlimited questions related to the course via email even after the course ends. In conclusion, participants are awarded a unique EY certificate that recognizes their learning and can be shared on social profiles to highlight their achievements.
