Fraud is constantly evolving; therefore, Certified Fraud Examiners (CFEs) need to stay current in the fraud examination profession by completing Continuing Professional Education related directly to the detection and deterrence of fraud. This is a must attend seminar for all CFEs. This course qualifies for the 10 credits required of all Certified Fraud Examiners (CFEs)! (NOTE: CFEs must obtain a minimum of 20 CPE credits during each annual compliance period; at least 10 of these must relate directly to the detection and deterrence of fraud, and 2 must relate directly to ethics. See our Ethics courses here.).
This course also qualifies for 10 credits of the 24/80 Yellow Book/GAGAS CPE!
