Internal Investigation Crash Course 1.5 Credits
When and How to Conduct an Investigation
Select your learning mode
Are you ready to conduct a thorough and compliant investigation? Will it align with Federal, State, and local laws and your organization's policies? Will it uphold objectivity and respect the rights of all parties involved? And will it be presented professionally?
If conducted correctly, an investigation can uncover the truth and resolve issues effectively. However, if mishandled, it can exacerbate problems and create new ones. To avoid these pitfalls, it's crucial to understand and follow best practices at every stage of the investigation.
This CPE Course will discuss why compliance with relevant standards and regulations is a significant challenge. Educating and updating everyone responsible for conducting investigations is essential. Without proper knowledge and skills, individuals may inadvertently breach laws, jeopardize the investigation’s integrity, and undermine its credibility. This webinar will guide you and your organization through the essential requirements for conducting effective and professional investigations. By understanding what you can and cannot do, you can minimize financial, legal, or reputational risks.
