We just finished teaching a course on corporate compliance this spring at the University of Houston Law Center. There were approximately 50 students in the class from a variety of backgrounds—some practicing attorneys, mostly law students at varying levels. The law school asked us to create the class in the wake of the University of Houston’s first successful ethics and compliance conference two years ago.

This year the International Corporate Compliance course was three credit hours, consisting of approximately 28 class meetings organized around the basic building blocks or key elements of an effective corporate compliance program. We designed the course by tracing the key elements of a compliance program to regulatory frameworks such as the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines, U.S. Department of Justice and Securities and Exchange Commission Foreign Corrupt Practices Act Guidance, the OECD Guidance and UK Bribery Act Guidance.
