Aim of the course

The CAS Compliance Management (PDF, 713 KB) is designed on a part time basis, aiming to provide current and future compliance officers with an introduction to relevant areas of the working methods of persons in the function of a compliance officer.

Participants of the course should obtain knowledge in areas such as business process management, quality management, system engineering, life cycle networks, internal control systems, operational and financial risk management, information technology, as well as project and people management.

The course combines academic teaching and research with practical application and at the same time promotes professional, methodical and social skills, taking into account the international dimension and cross-border compliance requirements. 

The teaching language is English.

Target Group

The programme is aimed at prospective and existing compliance officers, corporate lawyers and economists who wish to improve their professional qualifications. The focus is on practical relevance and the international dimension with its cross-border requirements.

This is your chance to identify future compliance cases, also with an international dimension, to deal with them correctly and to develop solution strategies.

Program

The program is divided into two modules. The first module deals with what is meant by compliance, how risks are treated and how they can be mitigated. In addition, it deals with the recognition of compliance violations and, subsequently, with options for an adequate response.

In the second module, case studies are used to prepare for the practical application. In order to secure the highest practical value for the participants, a team of experts from various industries accompanies the course and works alongside the class to develop various solutions. Such, the participants do not only benefit from the many years of the experts experience, but also from the diversity of their professional background (e.g. government, business, university).

The course combines academic teaching and research with practical application and at the same time promotes professional, methodological and social skills, taking into account the international dimension and cross-border compliance management requirements.
