All businesses should have policies and procedures in place to deter people from committing fraud. Unfortunately, fraud remains a common problem across many industries, with the financial sector particularly vulnerable.
Fortunately, there are steps you can take to prevent fraud and minimise the damage if a crime has already occurred. This Fraud Detection course covers the underlying principles of fraud detection, what it looks like in practice, and the most common challenges faced by people investigating suspected fraud.
You will learn:
- Why fraud detection matters and why spotting patterns is an essential investigative skill
- How to look for clues that may point to future instances of fraud
- How to identify anomalies in records and processes by analysing data
- The challenges data auditors face when identifying fraudulent activity, and how to use analytics to spot red flags
- How to detect credit card fraud using decision trees and algorithms
The course is made up of 5 modules (around 1 hour of learning): Introduction, Predicting Rare Events, Detecting Fraud, Challenges Relating to Data Analysis for Auditors, and Credit Card Fraud Detection.
