INTRODUCTION Compliance training is a comprehensive programme that helps organisations and their employees conduct operations in an ethical manner, with extreme integrity, and in compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. New risks because of demanding economic conditions increase pressure on compliance leaders. Traditionally, compliance officers focused on expanding coverage to various risks and layering compliance activities on top of business workflows and systems. However, recently, the focus has shifted to introducing compliance programmes as part of operations. This approach has been adopted to ensure appropriate effect with limited business impact. As a result, compliance programmes are now part of operations rather than functioning as a separate process. Whether an organisation is small or large, compliance is an important part of its structure and functioning because compliance has great potential to positively or negatively impact the growth and success of an organisation. Therefore, organisations these days are investing their efforts to build strong compliance systems and processes and successfully establish compliance programmes to keep a check on adherence to standards and rules. For organisations to improve their compliance programmes, it is important for them to understand their functional partners and activities and identify areas for closer cooperation. Besides establishing compliance programmes, organisations should keep a regular check and audit the performance of such programmes to identify any opportunities for enhancement or changes as per changing standards and rules. Thus, in technical terms, compliance management is as critical as compliance introduction. This training course will empower you with detailed information and knowledge about creating and managing compliance in your organisation. It will provide you with the necessary experience, exposure and skill to play an important part in creating compliance policies and systems in your organisation and successfully and effectively manage these to help the organisation progress within all ethical and legal boundaries.
