Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE) Exam Review Program

The Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE) credential is the premier certification for anti-fraud professionals around the world. CFEs are specialists in the deterrence, detection and investigation of fraud and encompass a broad range of skills which uniquely qualifies the holder to effectively combat fraud.

Heightened fraud awareness combined with new laws and regulations have increased the already growing demand in the workforce for professionals who are highly skilled at fighting fraud. If you are considering becoming a certified fraud examiner, this course helps you master the main subject areas covered on the exam: financial transactions; legal elements of fraud; fraud investigation; and criminology and ethics. The combination of classroom instruction and preparation software provides a solid background for the exam. The class is an excellent Certified Fraud Examiner exam study guide. Individuals who have purchased the CFE Exam Prep CD-ROM should contact the ACFE at 1-800-245-3321 for possible savings.

This course supplements the content learned in Northwestern University's Investigation and Prevention of Commercial Fraud Certificate Program.

Those interested in additional accounting skills may consider taking the Finance and Accounting for Non-Financial Managers course.

Notes: Northwestern does not certify an individual to use the CFE designation. The CFE is granted only by the CFE board to those persons who have met its ethics, experience and examination requirements.
