### Target audience and entry requirements
- Target Audience:
  - Managers and senior staff who are responsible for establishing or leading the compliance risk function or unit in the revenue department in their country administration.

### Course description — scope and main topics
- Rationale:
  - Compliance Risk Management is recognized as a key component of effective tax administration.
  - Tax administrations ideally seek to achieve 100 percent compliance to achieve expected revenue goals, but taxpayer behavior and administrative weaknesses make failure to comply inevitable.
  - Tax administrations therefore build systems and strategies to keep non-compliance to a minimum.
- Focus:
  - Demonstrate the importance of a risk-based approach to compliance management and how this leads to effective revenue administration.
  - Combine theoretical concepts for a systematic approach with practical examples and exercises.
- Main topics covered:
  - What is risk management and why is risk-based management important?
  - Identification, assessment, and prioritization of risks.
  - Mitigating risks through a compliance improvement program.
  - Development by each administration of plans to implement a risk register and adopt risk differentiation.
- Pedagogy:
  - Discussions and case studies to guide participants to align learnings with the mission, vision and values of their country revenue administrations.
  - Application of risk treatment plans and strategies for practical compliance work upon return to participants' administrations.

### Course objectives and expected outcomes
- Objective:
  - Designed for participants responsible for establishing or leading their administration's compliance risk function or unit.
- Expected outcomes:
  - Cover conceptual frameworks for compliance risk management (i.e. theory).
  - Ensure strong fundamentals through practical exercises.
  - Provide participants with sufficient knowledge and tools to take a leadership role in the establishment or management of the compliance risk system within their administration.
