Report Writing
Overview
Online
Description
Although often overlooked, report writing is a critical part of the fraud examination process. A strong fraud examination report conveys evidence and gives credibility to the fraud examination and to your work. An examination is often judged not by what was uncovered, but by the way the information is presented.
Ensure that the results of your next fraud examination are not lost in the report by using this course. Report Writing provides a thorough review of the report writing process including expert tips and a downloadable sample report you can use on your next examination.
