GIACC Online Anti-Corruption Training: Short Module
This Short Module is designed to give a brief overview of corruption and of the importance of avoiding any involvement in corruption.
It takes between 20 to 30 minutes to complete. A certificate of completion can be printed at the end. It is free of charge.
The Short Module can be taken by individuals who are interested in learning more about corruption in the infrastructure sector. Professional institutions and organisations can also require their members and personnel to take the Short Module as part of their formal training requirements.
GIACC Online Anti-Corruption Training: Comprehensive Module
This Comprehensive Module provides a more detailed training than that provided by the above Short Module.
It takes between one to two hours to complete. A certificate of completion can be printed at the end. It is free of charge.
In addition to providing a more detailed explanation of corruption offences and liability than that provided by the Short Module, it also contains fourteen ethical dilemmas which a person could face while working in the infrastructure sector. The person doing the training should consider how she/he would deal with each dilemma, and then move on to the answer which provides advice.
The Comprehensive Module is aimed primarily at middle and senior management, particularly those involved in procurement, tendering, sales and marketing, design, project management, claims management, commercial management, financial management, legal, compliance, and internal audit.
The Comprehensive Module is available in seven languages.

GIACC/Tl(UK): Anti-Corruption Training Manual

It can be used by individuals and by organisations as part of their corporate training. It is free of charge.
The Manual is available in the following language versions.
GIACC Anti-Corruption Training Workshops
GIACC can provide, upon request, anti-corruption training workshops for the personnel of governments, law enforcement bodies, public sector and private sector organisations, and professional institutions.

The content, number and length of the workshops is at the discretion of the requesting organisation. A single workshop or a series of workshops can be provided.

- How corruption takes place during an infrastructure project
