Anti-Corruption / Anti-Bribery / FCPA Training
Your reputation is on the line. Xcelus’ Anti-Corruption / Anti-Bribery / FCPA compliance training course familiarizes your frontline employees and partners with corruption laws that could affect your business reputation.
Business operates on relationships but maintaining those relationships without crossing the line into an activity that the SEC and DOJ define as improper or even criminal will require an employee base that is both vigilant and well-informed.

- Kickbacks, bribes, and improper facilitation payments
- Who is a government official
- Gifts, hospitality, expenses, and other types of potential violations
- Critical record-keeping and spotting red flags
- Reporting for suspicious activities and consequences of a violations
- The big picture for the FCPA and UK Bribery Act

The course is under 25 minutes and available in SCORM or video formats for your LMS. The course can also be customized to your organization using scenarios your employees would be familiar with.

Customizing the Anti-Corruption / Anti-Bribery / FCPA training course
A customized course is more than adding a logo, linking to policies, and guidance to hotlines. Xcelus includes that in every Anti-Corruption / Anti-Bribery / FCPA basic course. Xcelus offers three types of customization – Basic Standard or Ultimate.
When it comes to compliance risk every company is unique. That is where customized, or bespoke courses, have a major advantage over off-the-shelf courses. A customized course can be targeted to cover in-depth topics that keep a Chief Compliance Officer up at night. Customized compliance training courses can focus specifically on the risks a company is trying to mitigate. These courses can include appropriate risk scenarios that employees face in their day-to-day work environment, rather than generic scenarios that might not be relevant to a company’s business model.
Another distinct advantage of a custom course is greater emphasis can be placed on specific compliance topics. Focus topics identified and targeted by an individual company’s risk analysis can be highlighted and emphasized.

Don’t forget to promote your training
If compliance training was more like a marketing campaign, designed to influence the audience to change behaviors, an Anti-bribery/FCPA training campaign would look like the following:
1. Anti-bribery/FCPA Compliance Overview Course (20-25 Min., Week 1)
2. Gifts and Hospitality Compliance Reminder video – targeted workplace scenario video (90 sec., Week 2)
3. Quick Entry Fees Compliance Reminder video – targeted workplace scenario video (90 sec., Week 4)
4. Records & Reporting Compliance Reminder video – targeted workplace scenario video (90 sec.,, Week 6)
5. Non-Retaliation Compliance Reminder video – targeted workplace scenario video (90 sec., Week 8)
In just five short compliance training touch-points over a short period of time, your employees will know about your Anti-bribery/FCPA policy. Notice that the reminder content is less than 90 seconds. If your reminder videos are well-produced, short, and relevant employees will more likely view the content.
This type of training program also shows the DOJ and SEC that you have a robust compliance training program rather than simply a stated policy and a “once and done” training program.
There are many other touchpoints you could add to your Anti-bribery/FCPA training campaign such as employee desk-drops (Post Cards) and compliance posters in hallways and break-rooms. They all help remind employees and create the culture of compliance that government regulations require.
