In this one-day seminar officers will be shown how to:
" Recognize various types of fraud schemes and fraud trends
" Determine the scope of the fraud scheme
" Address the legal and practical considerations during the investigation
" Identify sources of information helpful to law enforcement
" Recognize and collect evidence in a fraud or financial crime

NO SHOW/CANCELLATION POLICY: Since we have VERY limited seating in classrooms with social distancing, NO SHOWS without notice effects people on class waitlists. We understand that in the law enforcement profession there are times that you cannot attend a class, but you can notify us by responding to the reminder emails that are sent out approximately one week prior to the class. We will begin tracking all no shows (people who do not attend class and don't notify us prior to the start of class). We are hoping this policy will cut down on people registering for numerous classes and not showing up for the those classes, which causes a 10-30% no show rate.
