The Fraud Discovery Institute's Fraud Training Programs not only raise the awareness of fraud; they give your management team and employees the knowledge necessary to spot various types of financial fraud in both public and private companies. Whereas most fraud audit and awareness training is downright boring, FDI uses case studies, multi-media presentations, downloads, links, and "Pearls of Wisdom" to create an enjoyable learning experience. Our lessons are presented by accounting and due diligence experts and are further enhanced by the revealing stories told by former perpetrators of major frauds. When combined with field practice (and mentoring provided by experienced professionals), the learner will be better prepared to uncover fraud in a variety of settings and entities. FDI takes compulsory education and makes it a compelling learning experience.

Among others, the topics currently available are:

• The Psychology of Fraud
• The Methodology of Fraud
• CHECKLIST Program
• Hidden Corporate Debt
• Bank Fraud
• Bank Due Diligence
• Internal Auditing (for both small and large entities)
• External Auditing (including revenue recognition issues and SPE's)
  

Boot Camps

Boot Camps are “down and dirty” seminars designed to give corporate employees (more specifically underwriters, credit decision makers, and managers) and those responsible for making financial decisions key insights into the world of financial fraud. FDI utilizes a variety of experts (depending on the audience) that illustrate issues specific to the industry of the target audience. Using specific real-life experiences as well as actual case studies from frauds either perpetrated or uncovered by members of the FDI team, Boot Camps are an excellent way to educate a large group of employees regarding financial fraud.

The typical Boot Camp is geared to groups of 25 to 250 individuals and are priced according to the time and curriculum desired by the customers. We offer half-day, full-day and two-day boot camps. We come to the client’s desired location.
