About this Podcast
HOST: Welcome to our podcast, today we're excited to have Dr. Jane Smith with us, an expert in fraud prevention and the lead instructor for the Certificate Programme in Ethical Fraud Prevention. Dr. Smith, can you tell us a bit about your experience in this field? GUEST: Sure, I've been working in fraud prevention for over 20 years, starting as an internal auditor and then moving into teaching and research. It's a constantly evolving area that requires staying up-to-date on the latest trends and techniques. HOST: Absolutely, it seems like there are always new challenges when it comes to detecting and preventing fraud. What would you say are some of the current industry trends related to this course? GUEST: One trend is the increased use of data analytics and artificial intelligence to identify unusual patterns or anomalies that might indicate fraudulent activity. We cover these topics in the course, giving learners hands-on experience with these tools. HOST: That's fascinating. Now, what about challenges faced in the field or while learning/teaching this subject? Are there any common obstacles that students encounter? GUEST: One challenge is the need to balance ethical standards with the reality of business operations. Students often grapple with understanding how to apply ethical principles in a way that supports their organization's goals without compromising integrity. HOST: That's a delicate balance indeed. Looking towards the future, where do you see the fraud prevention industry heading? What skills will be most in demand?
