Whether a non-profit’s mission involves supporting community and business development, health care services, religious activities, research and educational opportunities, or a host of other services, the work often requires substantial funding and a team of directors, employees, and volunteers. While the mission-above-profit aspect of these organisations might lull one into thinking that fraud is less of a problem than it is in the for-profit sector, non-profits actually face many unique fraud risks. Perhaps the biggest problem is that non-profits tend to have fewer fraud prevention controls than their for-profit counterparts—whether due to lack of awareness or an unwillingness to spend funds on this area. Additionally, it is a common perception that crimes against non-profits that receive public funds, tax benefits, or donations are essentially crimes against the public. As a result, fraud involving non-profits tends to receive increased media attention, which can also lead to decreased financial support.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nTo help reduce the risk of fraud-related losses at non-profits, fraud examiners need to understand the most common types of schemes perpetrated at non-profits. This course will cover schemes committed against the non-profit by employees or insiders, those committed by external parties, as well as fraud that can be attributed to the non-profit itself. Additionally, the course guides examiners on identifying the most effective fraud detection and prevention methods based on an organisation’s particular risks.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003ch4\u003eBy completing this course, you will understand how to:\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul class=\"htmlEditor-ul\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003edifferentiate how non-profits are regulated compared to other organisations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eidentify fraud schemes commonly committed against non-profits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003erecognise behaviour by agents that could cause a non-profit organisation to be liable for fraud\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eascertain what internal and public information is available for fraud examinations regarding non-profits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003erecall the steps necessary for a due diligence investigation of a non-profit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eselect the fraud prevention controls that are most effective in the context of non-profits.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch4\u003eKey information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul class=\"htmlEditor-ul\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCPD certificate is available upon successful completion of the course. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ee-learning developed by Association of Certified Fraud Examiners. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cimg alt=\"ACCA ACFE joint logo\" src=\"${PICTURE_CONTEXT_PATH}ckeditor_uploads\/ACFE_joint_logo_lock_up_sml_2538968.jpg\" style=\"margin: 5.0px;\"\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"acca-learning","offers":[{"title":"Standard price \/ 0","offer_id":47850723999995,"sku":"100184","price":140.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Students \/ 110169","offer_id":47850724032763,"sku":"100184","price":110.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Members \/ 110167","offer_id":47850724065531,"sku":"100184","price":110.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Continuous learners \/ 3","offer_id":47850724098299,"sku":"100184","price":140.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/acca-learning.myshopify.com\/products\/3021853_acca-learning","provider":"acca-learning","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
