Description: The issue is recognized among those who are in the compliance role, yet the topic borders on the political line within and organization's hierarchy. Professionals often must learn to "face the music" or "play the politics" even though their ethical and moral code tells them something should be changed.

The compliance profession has emerged as one of the critical job roles in corporate America. The ongoing onslaught of legislation and regulatory guidelines in every industry has heightened the need for professionals who can effectively and efficiently develop and manage strong compliance programs. In the past, these roles were often considered the responsibility of professionals whose vital included legal or audit experience. In today's world, professionals from a multitude of disciplines have found themselves in positions of compliance responsibilities. www.onlinecompliancepanel.com | 510-857-5896 | customersupport@onlinecompliancepanel.com


Why Should you Attend: Sooner or later, every compliance professional will face situations and scenarios where they feel their independence and objectivity related to an issue may be impaired. They may feel pressured by management to minimize their report finding or in some cases, look the other way. When this occurs they are faced with the dilemma of "what do I do" or "how do I handle this situation". These are the types of situations that our University programs do not prepare us for. Experience can often be the best teacher. However, all individuals should be armed with some basic concepts that will prepare them to choose the right path when such difficult situations occur. www.onlinecompliancepanel.com | 510-857-5896 | customersupport@onlinecompliancepanel.com
