Event Advisory - The Canadian Institute is Bringing Its Anti-Corruption and Bribery Compliance Program to the West

CALGARY, March 29, 2012 /CNW/ - After a successful kick-off to its Anti-Corruption and Bribery Compliance event in January, The Canadian Institute has decided to bring this program to Western audiences on June 20-21. To be held in Calgary, Alberta, this program has built on the successful sessions from the January event in Toronto and has added sessions to meet the needs and demands of the Western Canadian market.

Throughout this two-day conference, attendees will receive the compliance solutions they need in order to protect their organization from the costly effects of corruption - an area of compliance that has seen, and will continue to experience, increased enforcement.

Key educational highlights at the June event include:

• Understand how the CFPOA, the FCPA and the new U.K. Bribery Act are being applied and interpreted to ensure compliance
• Protect your organization while doing business with foreign markets by implementing a cost-effective compliance program
• Learn directly from Canada's leading prosecutors and investigators, including the RCMP, about their current enforcement priorities
• Understand when an internal investigation is necessary and how to maximize its effectiveness
• Best practices for using agents and representatives in foreign transactions

And much more!
