About the Course
Theft and fraud don’t always come from outside a business.
In fact, most businesses are hurt by what happens inside, when trusted people exploit weak systems and poor oversight.
Whether it’s stolen cash, inflated expenses, fake vendors, or manipulated records, internal theft and fraud can quietly destroy your business from within.
But it doesn’t have to be that way.
This course will show you how to set up internal controls that make your business harder to steal from and easier to monitor, without creating unnecessary complexity or killing trust.
You will learn how to recognise the warning signs of theft and fraud so you can catch them early before they damage your business.
This course will also make you a capable risk manager who can identify and reduce the risks of theft and fraud in a business, and take specific steps to build a safer and more accountable business.

The key differences between theft and fraud in a business, and why understanding the difference is critical to stopping them.
Real-world examples of how theft and fraud happen in businesses—often in ways that go unnoticed for years.
