Why Should You Attend:

The regulatory environment created by Sarbanes-Oxley, GLB, HIPAA and countless new regulations make it imperative that organizations, large and small, select a Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) or, more recently, The Chief Risk Officer (CRO) best suited to the position.

Selecting an effective CCO/CRO with a broad vision and perspective and with the proper skill set to enable him/her to function in the current 'global' regulatory environment requires that you consider many key factors to ensure the success of the new function.

The skill set needed by this individual goes beyond training and certification. It takes a unique individual with a strong internal compass and the willingness to state what is needed, even when facing financial challenges.
