Web Shield Academy is the training program from risk professionals for risk professionals.
Earn ETA CPP Continuing Education Credits for attending.
All Academy courses are headed by experienced risk professionals, who know the ins and outs of underwriting in a high-risk environment. Learn in a structured way about various online business models and test your investigation skills against real life test cases.
In the many hands-on case studies, you will learn how to conduct effective open-source intelligence gathering and come to your own conclusions about who you are dealing with: legitimate business or sophisticated fraudster?
The course follows the tried and tested Web Shield Academy approach: Topic-driven lectures, exemplified by hand-picked live underwriting cases.
Don't sweat the small stuff: An Advanced course is a deep dive into current hot-button issues like merchant location, chargeback mitigation and regulatory updates. We also encourage students to bring their own cases for the live underwriting sessions.
The regular courses in a year might be limited, but that does not mean you and your team have to miss out.
