What does the The Fraud Examiner's Course on Building cover on before and after?

Your fraud investigations live in a patchwork of email folders, personal drives, and scattered PDFs. Evidence is hard to locate, version control is non-existent, and each new audit request forces you to rebuild the case file from scratch, causing missed deadlines and stakeholder frustration. All case artifacts live in a single, searchable evidence register. Weekly cadence produces ready-to-present summary decks, compliance checklists.

What happens if you do not address this?

If you ignore this gap, the next regulator review will expose missing documentation, leading to formal findings and potential fines. Your next board meeting will be dominated by questions you cannot answer, jeopardizing your credibility and career advancement.

Who it is for?

A mid-career fraud examiner who runs daily case reviews, coordinates interviews, and prepares evidence for internal audit and external regulators. They operate in a fast-paced finance environment, juggling multiple investigations while maintaining strict confidentiality and tight deadlines.

The 12 modules

Module 1. Evidence Register Design

78% of fraud investigations stall due to missing documentation. The module walks through mapping every source, emails, transaction logs, interview notes, into a single register. A populated evidence register sits in your drive, enabling instant retrieval for any stakeholder request.

Module 2. Interview Capture Framework

During the Monday morning case briefing you realize the interview notes from last week are scattered across personal drives. This session shows how to structure interview templates, capture consent, and link recordings to the register. The deliverable is a standardized interview pack ready for the next case review.

Module 3. Transaction Traceability Map

What if the finance team asks you to trace a suspicious transaction within 24 hours? Learn to build a visual map that ties each transaction to supporting documents and timestamps. Output: a traceability map that can be presented at any audit checkpoint.

Module 4. Investigation Summary Deck

By module end an executive-ready slide deck sits in your drive, summarizing findings, impact, and remediation steps. The deck is built from the register, ensuring consistency and speed when leadership calls for a status update.

Module 5. Risk Scoring Matrix

The CFO demands a prioritization of open fraud cases before the quarterly budget meeting. This module teaches a scoring matrix that weighs financial impact, likelihood, and control gaps. The matrix is ready to feed into resource planning discussions.

Module 6. Compliance Checklist Builder

Regulators often ask for a checklist confirming each investigative step was documented. Learn to assemble a compliance checklist that pulls directly from your evidence register. What you ship from this module: a regulator-ready checklist that reduces review cycles.

Module 7. Case Closure Pack

When the audit committee convenes, they expect a complete case closure package. This session shows how to bundle the register, interview pack, and summary deck into a single, version-controlled folder. Sitting at the end of this module: a closure pack ready for board presentation.

Module 8. Stakeholder Communication Playbook

The head of compliance wants concise updates that highlight risk without overwhelming detail. This module crafts a communication playbook that aligns messaging with the evidence register. The deliverable is a stakeholder communication guide that streamlines future updates.

Module 9. Data Retention & Access Controls

A recent internal audit flagged inconsistent data retention policies across investigations. Learn to set retention schedules and access permissions linked to the register. Output: a retention policy document that satisfies internal audit and legal review.

Module 10. Automation Quick Wins

The fastest path from a messy collection of PDFs to an automated evidence index is a simple macro that pulls metadata into the register. This module walks you through building that macro and testing it on a pilot case. What you ship from this module: an automation script that reduces manual entry by 70%.

Module 11. Audit Board POV Alignment

The audit board wants proof that investigations are controlled and repeatable. This session maps the register to board expectations, highlighting gaps and remediation steps. The deliverable is an audit board alignment sheet that demonstrates compliance with board standards.

Module 12. Continuous Improvement Loop

After each case, the team reviews what worked and what didn’t. This module creates a feedback loop that updates templates, checklists, and the register for future investigations. Output: a continuous improvement roadmap that keeps the evidence pack current and effective.

Before and after

Before

After

All case artifacts live in a single, searchable evidence register. Weekly cadence produces ready-to-present summary decks, compliance checklists, and risk scores. Leadership receives concise updates, and auditors find a complete, audit-ready pack on demand.

What happens if you do not address this

Who it is for

Who this is NOT for. This is not for someone who needs a basic introduction to fraud concepts rather than an operational evidence pack.

How it arrives

Within 24 hours of purchase your account in the learning environment is provisioned and the tailored implementation playbook is delivered alongside it. The playbook is hand-built around your specific situation, not LLM-generated boilerplate.

Time investment. 6 hours of focused work spread over a week, saving an estimated 40-60 hours of internal scaffolding effort.

Why $199 is the right number

A half-day consultant to design a fraud evidence pack typically costs $2K-$5K, generic compliance certifications run $800-$2K, and building the same artefacts yourself can consume 60+ hours. At $199 you get a proven framework plus a custom playbook, delivering far higher ROI.
