Syllabus
The Whistleblower Policy Training provides a clear and practical understanding of how to recognize, report, and manage misconduct within an organization. Participants will learn why whistleblowing is an essential element of compliance and how it strengthens transparency and accountability across all levels of an entity.
This training explains the legal protections available to whistleblowers in Canada and the United States, the responsibilities of employees and management in handling disclosures, and the procedures for conducting fair investigations while maintaining confidentiality.
Through real-world examples, including corporate failures such as Enron and FTX, learners will see how the absence of effective reporting systems can lead to ethical collapse and regulatory consequences.
By the end of this program, you’ll understand how to establish or reinforce a safe and retaliation-free reporting environment; one that protects both your organization and the individuals who speak up in good faith.
