Course Overview

According to a study completed by the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners, 27% of all businesses in the United States are subject to payroll fraud. Even worse: the average time that payroll fraud goes undetected is 36 months!

Payroll fraud is the most common form of employee theft and all the accounting fraud scams, it’s one of the hardest to detect. One of the difficulties in stopping payroll fraud is understanding the different types of scams that exist. How can you implement policies, procedures, and strategies to identify, eliminate and prevent payroll fraud?

This CPE course is designed to review the issue of payroll fraud. Examples of actual frauds will be provided so participants can understand how the frauds are being committed and how they were uncovered. Information will be provided about payroll frauds committed by employees as well as payroll frauds committed by management and company owners. In this CPE course, we will review various methodologies for detecting payroll fraud and will discuss developing internal controls to help prevent and detect payroll fraud.

This was one of the best CPE webinars I've had all year! The presenter was very engaged with the comments and kept things light while still covering the topic in detail. Despite being a 2-hour session, the time flew.
