Fraud awareness training designed for Australian local government organisations. This course helps council employees, managers, and volunteers understand how to identify, prevent, and report fraud in the workplace.
Fraud exists in almost every workplace, including local governments, and often goes undetected until significant financial and reputational damage has occurred. When fraud is identified, it is more likely to be detected through internal tip‑offs from colleagues than through audits or controls alone.
Fraud imposes substantial and increasing costs on organisations globally. Local governments are not immune, with fraud incidents affecting public trust, service delivery, and governance outcomes. Staff awareness is therefore critical to early detection and prevention.
This course builds practical fraud awareness by helping staff understand common fraud behaviours, recognise warning signs, and know how to report suspected fraud in accordance with organisational procedures.
