Course description
Management and conduct of businesses are now rested on best governance and ethical practices built on transparent best practices for maximum economic returns and respected corporate reputation.
In an increasingly competitive business environment, the temptation for unsavoury sharp practices by companies or individuals does exist. To this end, it is now incumbent upon businesses to put measures, processes and systems in place to prevent corrupt practices and sanction those who may engage in it for whatever reason.
This course is designed for those who have responsibilities to promote good corporate governance and eliminate all forms of corruption in business.
