Online Anti-Corruption Training Modules
GIACC has published a suite of eleven online anti-corruption training Modules.
They are free of charge.
Each Module requires between 15 to 30 minutes to complete. A certificate of completion can be downloaded or printed at the end of each Module. Each Module covers a specific topic, so users can choose whether to take one, some, or all Modules.
The Modules are of particular benefit for persons working in the infrastructure sector, who need to understand how corruption takes place, and how to avoid, deal with, prevent or investigate it. They are applicable to persons working for small or large organisations, in both the public and private sectors, anywhere in the world.
Organisations and professional institutions may find these Modules useful in providing anti-corruption training to their employees and members.
For details of the Modules and their content, and to access the Modules, see Online Anti-Corruption Training Modules.
GIACC Anti-Corruption Training Workshops
GIACC provides anti-corruption training workshops for the personnel of governments, law enforcement bodies, public sector and private sector organisations, and professional institutions.
Each workshop is normally 1.5 hours long, comprising 60 minutes of presentation, followed by 30 minutes questions and discussion. The timing can be adapted to suit the requirements of the training recipients.
The workshops will be provided live via on-line programmes, such as Zoom, Teams or equivalent.
There is no limit to the number of participants in each workshop, although smaller workshops can generate more discussion.
A fee will normally be charged for each workshop.
For details of the workshops and their content, see Anti-Corruption Workshops.
University Anti-Corruption Course
GIACC’s University Course “Preventing Corruption on Infrastructure Projects” provides persons who are studying subjects relevant to the infrastructure sector (e.g. engineering, architecture, project management, procurement, quantity surveying) with the knowledge and understanding to help them avoid, prevent and deal effectively with any corruption which they may encounter in their working lives.
The course may also be of interest and use to students in other business sectors and in professional fields such as law, accounting, and business management.
The analysis and examples given in this course focus on the infrastructure sector but are also applicable to, and can be adapted for, other sectors.
The course materials are available free of charge to universities and colleges.
The course requires approximately 36 hours of a student’s time (12 hours in a teaching environment and 24 hours of reading).
If a shorter and more simple module is desired, see GIACC’s University Seminar below.

The seminar may also be of interest and use to students in other business sectors and in professional fields such as law, accounting, and business management.
The analysis and examples given in this seminar focus on the infrastructure sector but are also applicable to, and can be adapted for, other sectors.

“Corruption in the Construction Industry”
Bruce Wymond, Founding Director of GIACC-Australia, and an engineer with over 40 years of international construction experience, has published a new book “Corruption in the Construction Industry”.
The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors states that “without significant interventions, by 2030 up to $5 trillion could be lost annually to corruption in construction across the world”.
The book addresses this critical issue by examining corrupt construction activities throughout all project phases, including planning, design, tendering, construction and operation. It looks at all types of corruption, including bribery, fraud and cartels, both in the public and private sectors, and proposes solutions to preventing and identifying such corruption.
