Anti-Money Laundering Module

Anti-Slavery Module

Sustainability Module

This course explores the importance of sustainability and ways in which we can  reduce our harmful impact on the environment to make a better world for  future generations. It looks at the consequences of inaction, the importance  of environmental awareness and looks to individuals, businesses and  governments to bring about change.

Competition Law Module

Competition Law is intended to promote and maintain fair market competition, through the  regulation of anti-competitive conduct. This module explores the two main  laws that protect competition in the UK and the penalties for non-compliance.

Whistleblowing Module

Officially known as making a disclosure in the public interest, whistleblowing can often  seem like a daunting and complicated process, with individuals afraid they  won’t be taken seriously or will encounter reprisals in the workplace. This  module explores the legal protections offered to whistleblowers, the  responsibilities of employers to respond to disclosures made in the public  interest and what individuals can expect throughout the process.

Right to Work Module

To encourage a fair and open employment market, the UK government introduced  Right to Work checks designed to mitigate the impact of illegal working by  preventing the exploitation of individuals and ease the potential negative  economic impact. This module explores who’s eligible to work in the UK, what  documents are considered acceptable for proving this eligibility and the  consequences of breaking the UK’s Illegal Working laws.

Bribery & Corruption Module

This module explores bribery and corruption as well as global legislation and its  enforcement. We will look at ways to demonstrate compliance and ways to  protect yourself and your organisation.

Insider Trading Module

Insider trading occurs when someone has access to information that’s not yet  available to the public and uses it to their advantage in order to make a profit or avoid a loss when trading on a regulated market. This module  explores both legal and illegal insider trading, the law and terminology related to insider trading, the investigative process, the types of insider  and the impact their actions can have on an organisation, a market and the economy.
