Effective Compliance Monitoring

How will this course benefit me?

Placing clear priority on the identification of systemic failures rather than mere compliance-type findings, this course focuses on developing your ability to contribute to your organisation’s performance.

Having the ability to interact effectively with, and where necessary, challenge your organisation’s Management Systems, will help to:

• Reduce corporate risk through improved risk mitigation
• Develop efficient processes that are compliant with regulations
• Challenge processes to demonstrate not only compliance but systematic improvements
• Speak the same ‘language’ as the Regulator

Key areas of focus

• What does an ‘effective’ Compliance Monitoring function look like
• Compliance Monitoring Management System requirements
• Measuring performance of the Compliance Monitoring function
• Consequences of ignoring what your System might be telling you
• The philosophy of auditing
• The Management System approach
• Scope of Compliance Monitoring, including a look at Regulatory Compliance, Human Factors and Error Management and Safety Risk Management

Prerequisites:
