Organizations need to be able to count on their employees to uphold their commitment to financial integrity, which includes everything from maintaining accurate financial records to taking the steps necessary to identify and prevent fraud, money laundering and other financial crimes. Effective training is key.
NAVEX’s Financial Integrity course provides a solid foundation in the topic, and it starts with the basics: why accurate financial information matters - and how to ensure accuracy when reporting and recording. Learners are then exposed to the various internal controls in place to protect and preserve financial integrity, from records management and records hold policies to requirements for working with auditors. The course’s content also includes key information to help learners identify and report potential problems, like fraud, bribery and money laundering.
Whether employees are processing invoices or submitting timecards, there’s a good chance that at some point they’ll be tasked with an activity that can impact their organization’s finances – regardless of their role. As a result, financial integrity awareness and knowledge is a must for all employees.
