Foreign Corrupt Practices Act Awareness - Part II - CO/003/02

The U.S. Congress enacted the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) in 1977 in response to findings that companies had been making hundreds of millions of dollars of questionable payments to foreign government officials, politicians, and political parties. The purposes of this act are to halt the bribery of foreign officials and restore public confidence in the integrity of the American business system. 

The head of the DOJ's Criminal Division recently described the agency's focus on FCPA enforcement and warned executives and employees of personal accountability for FCPA violations. 

This FCPA training course explains the major principles of U.S. anti-corruption laws, persons subject to FCPA, implications, consequences, etc. This interactive FCPA training course will ensure professionals and practitioners at all levels understand their roles and responsibilities, new developments, FCPA resources, and hallmarks of an effective compliance program. The course includes knowledge tests as users progress through the training. Part I of the FCPA course is for all employees whereas Part II is focused on professionals or identified department personnel.
