Small Biz, Think BIG

There is no doubt—it is better to prevent fraud, than to discover and prosecute one after the fact!

Learn about the nature of fraud and how it is perpetrated on Thursday, September 26 from 8:30 a.m. to noon at TC3 Tioga Place on the Ithaca Commons. Register for this program now to better protect your business, clients, employees, and volunteers from fraudulent actions.

Hear Jack Little, CPA, CFE, Senior Lecturer of Accounting at the Dyson School of Cornell University, describe the nature of fraud and why we become victims, using case studies of actual frauds.

• Understand the critical components of every fraud.
• Recognize environments in which fraud is likely to occur.
• See the warning signs of fraud.
• Learn what to do if fraud is suspected in your organization.
