ACFE sessie (NL-talig- Ondervragen: meer dan een vrijblijvend gesprek | 28 oktober 2022 | 13h30-18h
De ondervraging, het cruciale (eind)onderdeel in een onderzoek, toch? Of hangt dit vooral af van de context, het verloop en de bevindingen van het onderzoek? Wat alleszins buiten discussie staat, is het belang van de verantwoordelijkheid, het aanpassingsvermogen van de ondervrager en het inzicht in de eigen (beïnvloedende) rol.
In deze sessie willen we dieper ingaan op enkele concrete knelpunten en vraagstukken uit de praktijk: Hoe kan je je wapenen tegen aanvallen op het verloop van het gesprek? Hoe kan je in alle situaties het onderste uit de kan halen? En hoever kan je gaan in je sturing en beïnvloeding?
Wanneer? Vrijdag 28 oktober 2022 13u30 tot 17u30 met aansluitend receptie
Deze training is voorzien voor maximaal 30 personen. Snel inschrijven is dus aanbevolen.
Waar? ING HQ – Sint-Michielswarande 60 Etterbeek (zaal Vivace)
Het programma:
13u30-14u30 : Skin in the game – Lode Barrezeele (i-Force)
Bij een ondervraging staat er heel wat op het spel: niet alleen voor diegene die ondervraagd wordt, maar mogelijks ook voor de ondervrager indien deze nadien (zelfs strafrechtelijk) wordt aangevallen op de gebruikte aanpak. Aan de hand van enkele voorbeelden uit de praktijk gaan we in op hoe een ondervrager zich hier kan op voorbereiden.
14u45-15u45: Like a chameleon – Gerwinde Vynckier (i-Force)
Er zijn veel methoden om via een gesprek informatie te vergaren. Het komt erop aan voor elke context de juiste aanpak te kiezen: een een-op-een gesprek met een uitgekiende opbouw, een vragenlijst met brede vragen die worden voorgelegd aan een groep, een meer informeel gesprek met nadien een samenvatting die wordt voorgelegd ter ondertekening, een interview via video call, opname van interviews, analyse van spontane verklaringen (statement analysis), …
16u:00-17:00: Influence, persuasion and the right to be persistent – Tom Willems (Olaf)
Hoe ver kan een ondervrager gaan? Hoe vind je de balans tussen niet sturen maar toch te weten komen wat je wil weten en daar naartoe werken?
17:00-17u15: Vragenronde
17u15-18u: kans tot expertise uitwisseling tijdens de receptie aangeboden door ING
Fraud and Asset Recuperation | 15 June 2022 | 17h-19h
The Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE) Belgium has the pleasure to invite its members and associates for an event on “Fraude and asset recuperation” followed by an informal network drink.
The event will take place on Wednesday June 15th 2022 from 17h00 – 19h00 at Modero Bailiffs Antwerp.
The speakers will focus on the different aspects of solvency assessment and its relations with asset recuperation and fraud detection. More specifically, they will focus on the data sources being used, how models are built on top of those databases and how this translates to effective asset recovery. In addition the speakers will demonstrate how databases are being organised into powerful networks that allow to detect fraud from a contagion perspective.
Sonny Luypaert (President ACFE Belgium): moderator for the Q&A
Dr. Frederik De Grove (Lead Machine Learning and A.I., Alice) will address the ins and outs of the data and models being used in the context of solvency modelling, asset recovery and fraud detection from a Bailiffs perspective.
Jan De Meuter (CEO Modero) : Modero is the leading bailiff network in the use of data sets to optimise recuperation and detect fraude at an early stage.
An exchange between the fraude examiners and bailiffs will provide some interesting insights on possible best practices and employed methods in case of fraude.
There’ll be time to delve deeper into the various themes and for networking.
