Internal Control Issues, Restatements, and Corporate Governance

On demand

The Client Need

"Our associates cover 30-40 stocks at once and needed a self-paced course that could be completed when the markets are closed to teach practitioners how to analyze a company’s internal controls and corporate governance environment to identify red flags, as well as judge the severity of restatements."

- Global Financial Institution

The Design

A 5-7-hour, self-paced, eLearning course with pre- and post-tests that includes real cases and expert mentors who guide learners through analysis of the internal controls and corporate governance environment in several companies to spot risk.

The Details

The course opens with a compelling motion-graphic video of how the relevant analyses reveal a company’s potential instability.

Learners complete a pre-test to assess their initial content knowledge and demonstrate growth by completing the post-test at the end of the course.

Learners use an analysis tool and deliverable document to work through assignments reflective of the analyses they will perform on the job.

A subject-matter expert provides context for the learning through video and email messages and serves as a virtual (and real) mentor throughout.

"The case studies were really interesting and showed the value of forensic accounting. In fact, I was so interested that I searched online to find out what else happened to the company after the case study was over." - Learner
