Integrity Week Colombia | Corruption Prevention Training ‘De Empresas Para Empresas’

The training programme of the Alliance for Integrity seeks to assist companies in developing and implementing effective corruption prevention systems. Major companies with established compliance systems become trainers and support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with little experience in countering corruption by transferring their knowledge and experiences. The companies gain practical tools to solve problems related to the corruption and to increase their competitiveness.

The training is based on international good practices and tried-and-tested solutions developed by the Global Compact Network Germany and delivered by an expert in the field of corruption prevention from a major company. The combination of international good practice and transfer of knowledge and experience in implementing compliance management activities makes the training programme valuable for SMEs.

Elements of the Training Programme

The training programme addresses the following points:

• Definitions. What is corruption and what types of corruption exist?
• Relevance for the own company. How is my company affected by corruption? Corruption prevention based on practical examples.
• Risk factors. Presentation of typical risks and handling of them.
• Potential solutions for critical situation and prevention measures. How do I behave in critical situations? What are essential components of an ethics and compliance programme? What needs to be considered when choosing business partners? Which advantages can collective action bring?

Support Desk

Many questions arise only when implementing corruption prevention measures into practice. This is why the Alliance for Integrity has developed a support structure. After the one-day training programme, participants gain access to an online support desk that provides expert answers to practical questions on the implementation of compliance measures within 72 hours.

Who can take part?

The main target group of the one-day trainings are representatives from SMEs with little or no experience in implementing an effective compliance management system. Participation is also open to representatives from other organisations interested in learning about definitions, risk factors and potential solutions in the area of business integrity.
