Anti-bribery & Corruption covers the relevant legislation regulating the prevention of bribery and corruption, namely, the Bribery Act 2010 in the UK and the Criminal Justice (Corruption Offences) Act 2018 in Ireland. This eLearning corruption training course explains what this legislation is and why and how you must comply with it. It clarifies what happens if you don’t comply and details the policies and procedures in place to ensure your staff do their part to prevent bribery and corruption. It tells your staff why and how to report bribery, corruption and other financial crime.

Anti-bribery & Corruption ends in a 15-question course test. Learners must answer at least 12/15 questions correctly to pass the course. Their score will be automatically saved in CityLearning’s Learning Management System (LMS) CityREPORTs, so that compliance with anti-bribery and corruption training requirements can easily be proven.  

Rigorous Testing: Spot questions are used throughout the course to increase user engagement; they either probe to expand on a learner’s existing knowledge of the subject matter or reinforce key learning points. Each module ends in a short quiz and the course ends in a 12-question test with an 80% pass mark. Questions in the course test are randomised from a choice of three so that learners may retake without getting the same questions.
