SAS 99 and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act are now part of everyday life for financial managers and auditors in small and large companies alike. Efforts to grasp and manage the risks of financial reporting fraud and misappropriation continue to evolve, but much uncertainty remains about what works best. This dynamic program provides specific steps to help auditors and accountants fully meet fraud-handling expectations. The "how to" approach helps participants identify fraud exposures and risks and provides practical ideas on how to handle those exposures. Course materials, developed by a nationally known fraud expert, include examples of what can go wrong and how fraud is reflected in the record. Also included are planning ideas as well as practical suggestions for responding to wrongdoing when it is discovered.
