Teaching methods

The lessons (face-to-face) will be held by the teacher, by partners/senior managers of PWC and by representatives of the ACFE (Association of Certified Fraud Examiner), who will bring their concrete experiences into the classroom, through interactive methods.
PWC contact person: Dr. Alessandro Schiaffino (partner)
ACFE contact person: Dr. Silvia Pizzolato.

Assessment methods and criteria

The final evaluation will be ascertained through the active test (developed in groups of students) carried out using the PWC «Investigate» software, and subsequent discussion of the results emerging from the activity carried out using said software (evaluation out of 30/30, with the possibility of honors).

Attendance is mandatory and active participation in the classroom will also be evaluated for the purposes of the final grade.
