Improve your online searches, research and investigations

What will you learn?

The course will provide delegates with an improved knowledge of performing and recording internet based enquiries.

Following the workshop delegates will:

• Be able to structure an investigation to obtain necessary evidence and comply with relevant legislation
• Understand how to determine beneficial ownership for complex corporate structures and property
• Be able to identify and use Open Source Information
• Be able to ask more focused questions and arrive at quicker robust decisions

Who is it for?

This is suitable for people working in HR , procurement, compliance, investigations, journalism, security, housing enforcement, environmental health, healthcare and anyone who needs to find information about people or companies on the internet.

Why should I attend?

We are all living in a digital as well as real world. Now more than ever the key information that we need to make risk based decisions is available online. The trick is knowing where and how to look in a legal, fair and ethical way which doesn't infringe upon rights to privacy. Ensuring the information obtained can be used in a variety of ways including court proceedings if necessary.

How will it be delivered?

This is a virtual course delivered using a mixture of structured self-learning and live zoom sessions.

The day will be comprised of informative and interactive sessions designed to give the delegates a thorough understanding, utilise the tools available and inspire confidence and best practice.

All delegates will be required to get involved in team exercises and open conversation. Our experience shows that this is the best way to ensure delegates leave with a thorough understanding of the topic.

The sessions and group feedback will be delivered via live zoom calls and the exercises will be completed individually offline.

What will we cover?

Key topics include:

• Understanding the basics of an investigation, the key legal constraints and common mistakes.
• How organised criminals infiltrate genuine organisations – when to escalate to other relevant agencies
• Structuring an investigation
• The key elements of an investigation: terms of reference and agreed objectives, roles and responsibilities, investigation planning, gathering & recording evidence.

Testimonials

" Working with Neil from Rightway Compliance has been a great experience from the very start.

As a business that takes its AML obligations seriously, Mansion wanted to bring the best knowledge possible to our teams to assist with complex cases and make sure we manage risks associated with online gaming to an exceptional standard.

Through carefully thought out materials and case studies, Neil passed on a considerable amount of valuable skills, insight and information to our Due Diligence team members and management, which is already paying dividends in the effectiveness of our AML procedures.

During a difficult time, Neil was able to adapt the training to suit remote delivery to members across different jurisdictions. By continuously passing on a wealth of knowledge gained through years of experience, all Mansion staff involved had only positive things to say and are ecstatic with how this exercise has aided their development and skills.

We hope that this will not be the end of the road with our relationship with Rightway given the value they have added already, and would encourage any other operators within the gaming sphere, or businesses with similar AML obligations, to reach out to Rightway to assist with their operations.
