This Bribery Act Awareness Training course provides employees and organisations with the essential knowledge to recognise, prevent, and respond to bribery in the workplace. The UK Bribery Act 2010, which came into force on 1st July 2011, makes it a legal requirement for businesses operating in the UK to ensure adequate training and protection against corruption.

The course explains the nature of bribery, the key provisions of anti‑bribery legislation, and the implications of implementing a compliance programme. Learners will also explore the consequences of failing to meet legal requirements and how to create and apply an anti‑bribery policy or risk assessment.

By the end of this Bribery Act Awareness Training, participants will understand how to demonstrate due diligence, protect their organisation, and contribute to a culture of integrity and compliance.
