Introduction

In an increasingly data-saturated world, organisations are grappling with growing volumes of transactions, interactions, and digital activity — all of which can mask sophisticated fraudulent behaviour. To uncover hidden risks and patterns, fraud professionals need more than just traditional detection tools — they need the ability to extract meaningful insights from complex datasets.This GLOMACS training course, *Data Mining Techniques for Fraud Analytics*, bridges the gap between raw data and actionable fraud intelligence. It introduces participants to core data mining techniques that can help detect unusual patterns, relationships, and trends that often signal fraudulent activity. Whether you’re looking to enhance your fraud investigation process or build a proactive detection framework, this course offers practical knowledge grounded in real-world applications.

Key Learning Outcomes

By the end of this Data Mining Techniques for Fraud Analytics training course, participants will be able to:

Understand the key concepts and methodologies of data mining
Identify types of fraud that can be detected using data mining techniques
Apply classification, clustering, and association techniques to detect anomalies and fraud patterns
Evaluate the effectiveness of different data mining models in various fraud scenarios
Understand data preparation, feature selection, and model evaluation within fraud analytics

Training Methodology

This training course employs a practical, instructor-led delivery style with a focus on structured learning modules. It incorporates visual demonstrations, step-by-step explanations, and walkthroughs of data mining workflows tailored to fraud detection. The content is accessible to both technical and non-technical participants, ensuring foundational concepts are clearly communicated without requiring coding or software development expertise.
