The very high demand for the training managed by the AVAF in recent editions, with 1,063 applications in this year 2024, led to the decision to increase the places offered in the two editions of the course held this year, from 60 to 70, in each one. . Which meant, for the first time, that the Training Service assumed the holding of two courses in a single semester.

In this fifth edition, held between May 20 and June 10, 2024, work has been done through modules where students have reflected through debate forums and demonstrated the knowledge acquired through questionnaires. As a final task, they have provided a reflection on the risks and threats to integrity that may arise in the public institution in which they provide their services.

The active participation of the students, from the General State Administration, the regional and local administration and the state public sector, has materialized through weekly synchronous sessions. Through these meetings, international and national regulations regarding the fight against corruption have been clarified, as well as the work of the authorities in charge of fraud prevention, the IV Open Government Plan and Law 2/2023, of February 20, regulator of the protection of people who report regulatory infractions and the fight against corruption, among other matters.
