CERTIFIED FRAUD EXAMINER (CFE)
Investigator of Financial and Accounting Fraud
Improve your knowledge
The Certified Fraud Examiner Programme is based on the interdisciplinarity, i. e. on various disciplines that illuminate fraud prevention from different angles. The Programme will help you establish new connections between your prior and new knowledge and thus equip you for investigation, prevention and detection of frauds in the field of finance and accounting.
“The Programme is practice-oriented, meaning that knowledge is acquired through practical examples, which are connected to theory.”
Employability
Social and economic conditions have changed significantly in the last years. Plethora of changes has occurred in the legal and accounting understanding of the economic situation and success of companies (and other business entities) as well as in the societal and individual ethics. These changes dictate the need for the increased control and additional knowledge in the field of fraud detection and prevention.
“Thus an additional knowledge in the field of fraud investigation, prevention and detection is necessary for the successful work of any organization.”
It is anticipated that in addition to basic education the certified knowledge will be necessary for employment and effective work in finance, audit, accounting, prosecution, taxation, security services and business management.
Certified knowledge will become essential for obtaining positions that require professional excellence.
The main purpose of the CFE Programme is to enable students to acquire the additional knowledge of fraud investigation, detection and prevention in the field of finance and accounting as well as to become versed in critical thinking and analysis of the effects of frauds on the individuals and society.
