Who can apply

U4 online courses are primarily for U4 partner staff and their guests. We do, however, also accept a limited number of applicants from NGOs and multilateral organisations.

We regret that we cannot accommodate applicants who have no direct relevance to the U4 partners' work.

Course prerequitsites

In order to ensure a shared basic knowledge of definitions, terminology and concepts of corruption and anti-corruption, prospective participants must complete our self-paced Essentials of Anti-Corruption I module before they can take this course. Essentials of Anti-Corruption II: Development Programming is also recommended, but not required.

What you'll learn

• The different types of risks that corruption poses to development programming
• What measures can help to mitigate such risks
• How to integrate risk management into various stages of the programming cycle

Note that this course is not a how to-course on specific mitigation measures related to a particular service or activity. There are specialised courses available for many of these areas by other providers. This U4 course offers a conceptual framework to identify, assess and respond to the risks that corruption poses to your development goals.
