SCCE 25th Annual Compliance & Ethics Institute

Building Compliance Impact in an Era of Rapid Change

The compliance challenges you're facing aren't waiting. Neither should your strategy. The challenges facing compliance professionals are changing quickly—and staying current requires more than keeping up with the latest headlines. You need practical insights, proven strategies, and fresh perspectives you can put into action to strengthen your compliance program's impact.

That's what you'll find at the 25th Annual Compliance & Ethics Institute® (CEI) in Orlando. With 10 specialized learning tracks, the 2026 agenda covers the issues shaping compliance right now, from emerging AI risks and regulatory uncertainty to investigations, risk management, ethics, global compliance, and program effectiveness.

Why Attend

Come ready to tackle the questions that matter most:

• How should your compliance program respond to the rapid growth of AI and emerging technologies?

• What can current enforcement and investigation trends teach you about managing risk?

• How can you strengthen your compliance program, culture, and reporting practices?

• What strategies can help you navigate increasingly complex global and regulatory environments?

• How can you make your compliance efforts more effective and impactful?

With practical education led by experienced compliance professionals, the CEI gives you the opportunity to explore these top-of-mind issues, exchange ideas with peers, and uncover approaches you can take back to your organization.

Conference Experience

Hallway conversations are the hallmark of the CEI. The value doesn't stop when you leave each session. Many attendees return primarily for the chance to connect with peers and hear first-hand accounts of compliance challenges and solutions from those who have lived them. This is more than education: it's your chance to build and nurture a network of dedicated professionals who understand your pain points and can offer support, share knowledge, and help you benchmark your organization's efforts.

Professional Development

You can earn live continuing education units (CEUs) to support your career development. And if you're ready to take the next big step, the optional Certified Compliance & Ethics Professional (CCEP)® or Certified Compliance & Ethics Professional-International (CCEP-I)® certification exam is available on-site at the end of the conference (a separate exam application and fee is required).
