Preventing Conflict of Interest in Higher Education – Webinar

What are the causes of conflict of interest in the higher education sector? How can the power of data to be used to address conflict of interest in higher education?

This special webinar for higher education covers:

• Why conflict of interest of interest can happen in higher education
• The internal and external sources of the data available to identify conflict of interest
• The power of automation to make the most of the data available
• How to support a full lifecycle approach to monitoring and preventing conflict of interest, including education and ongoing monitoring.

We also hear from David Lavell from the University of Queensland (UQ), who talks about the journey at UQ has been for more than a decade to better prevent and detect of conflicts of interests. This is of particular importance for UQ’s given its research and commercial focus, requiring a high level of trust and financial accountability.

David explains how they have shifted from having few gatekeepers to having annual conflict of interest reviews for all staff every year to identify commercial conflicts, backed by the strong use of data and Satori to identify exceptions easily, leading to better detection and prevention.
