Great course to introduce the topic of Forensic Accounting and Fraud Examination. There may be a lack of development in the lectures covered (which could be filled with, for example, extracts from the handbook or articles).
Helpful
The course was very interesting. However, I found out that this is not longer my favourite topic to go on with.
