Every fraudulent claim that slips through costs an organization twice — once in the payout, and again in the internal controls it exposes as weak. This training course starts from that cost and works backward, showing participants how to recognize fraud patterns, tighten claims handling, and investigate suspicious cases before they turn into losses.

The course then broadens into the technology, ethics, and policy work that keep fraud prevention consistent over time, combining case studies and practical exercises so participants leave with tools they can apply immediately, not just theory.

• Claims managers and insurance professionals.
