Internal Investigations & Audits Masterclass

Join us for CMC’s virtual Internal Investigations and Audits Masterclass, which equips participants with a comprehensive, attorney-led framework for conducting privileged compliance audits and internal investigations that withstand scrutiny from regulators, plaintiffs’ counsel, and internal stakeholders. This signature program will place special emphasis on workplace safety (OSHA & MSHA) investigations and audits.  

What You Will Learn

• Strategic insight into why privileged audits and internal investigations matter, from business continuity to legal risk mitigation
• Clear criteria for determining when a privileged audit or internal investigation is warranted and how to apply a defensible decision-making framework
• Analysis of the costs, benefits, and risks associated with conducting (or not conducting) a privileged audit or internal investigation
• Privilege preservation guidance covering attorney-client privilege, attorney work product, and common pitfalls to avoid
• Special scenario training for handling safety and health incidents, whistleblower allegations, sexual harassment complaints, and compliance-driven audits
• A step-by-step framework for planning, scoping, interviewing, collecting data, and identifying root causes
• Post-audit/investigation direction on reporting results, implementing remedial measures, and determining when disclosures are appropriate
• Practical dos and don’ts that help ensure audits and investigations remain privileged and defensible
