TIA Releases Free Educational Fraud Course for Members

Alexandria, VA (June 14, 2023) – Following the launch of an internal Fraud Task Force last week, the Transportation Intermediaries Association (TIA) has released a free educational course for its members on fraud in the supply chain. The course focuses on rampant fraud in the marketplace which can take several forms and requires several different strategies. The course provides TIA members with not only an educational brief on the subject itself, but potential strategies and solutions they can use to proactively combat freight instead of reactively after the fraud has already occurred.

“Fraud in the supply chain is an unfortunate evil that good companies must deal with. The internet has accelerated the pace of business, but it has also allowed a dramatic increase in fraud.  The best way to prevent being a victim is through education. The TIA Fraud Course is your best weapon to fight back. The level of fraud is increasing, so now is the time to take action with the TIA Fraud Course,” stated TIA Highway Logistics Conference Committee Chairman Kenny Lund, Executive Vice President, Allen Lund Company.

“We are thrilled to announce the launch of our education course for TIA members. This member-only benefit is designed to empower the TIA community to navigate the issue of fraud in an interactive learning environment. TIA remains at the forefront of tackling fraud within the industry and will continue to work on internal solutions to help our members,” stated Chris Burroughs, Vice President of Government Affairs for TIA.
