Financial Investigation

Earning an Associate's Degree in Accounting - Financial Investigation, opens the door to an exciting career path in the high demand area of fraud detection and prevention, while providing a complete and solid core in accounting skills. Companies are concerned with preventing loss due to fraud and have realized the importance of having skilled and trained financial investigation professionals on staff.

Tax evasion, public corruption, health care fraud, telemarketing fraud and terrorist financing are just a few of the types of crimes that revolve around money. In these cases, a Financial Investigation often becomes the key to a conviction. Traditional law enforcement relies on investigative tools such as crime scene analysis, physical evidence, fingerprint identification or eyewitness accounts. The limitations of these techniques become obvious to those who are trying to prove wrongdoing in a sophisticated financial crime. With no proof, there is no conviction.
