Degree fraud is an extremely serious but underrepresented area of fraud involving the use of fake credentials to obtain employment or any other benefit. Once employed in an organisation with fake credentials, the fraudster is much more likely to engage in other forms of crime such as embezzlement or falsifying documents. While in some countries there has been a reduction in degree fraud due to a wider verification culture, there has been a rise in more general qualification fraud, such as the use of fraudulent further education and vocational qualifications in order to gain employment. In this session, we will cover the more notable recent examples of the tragic consequences ranging from financial crime to loss of human life through neglect and unregulated, untrained practitioners.
This webinar will discuss:
- The scale and nature of the problem
- The weak points and the potential remedies
- The role of different stakeholders in improving the response
Panellists:
Keith Rosser - Director of Reed Screening, Reed
Gavin Burton - Consultant, Qualification Check
