Learning Objective

  • Discuss Domain IV of Internal Audit Standards.
  • Evaluate effective planning techniques for audit engagements.

Course Overview

The GIAS articulates how a practical internal audit function should operate. The concepts are outlined in Domain IV, Managing the Internal Audit Function, which provides the CAE with a framework to establish the internal audit function.  

This CPE Course will delve into the Standards and Principles related to Domain IV Principle 9 – Plan Strategically Standard 9.1 through 9.5.  We will also provide practical applications to create an effective internal audit function.  A value-oriented IA function will have an understanding of the GIAS and be able to articulate their importance to management.  The absence of acknowledgment of the Standards infers the group is a quality assurance function. That may be what the organization wants, but management should make the differences clear.

Key topics covered:

  • Audit Strategy Alignment
  • Risk Assessment Methodologies
  • Stakeholder Engagement Techniques
  • Continuous Improvement Practices

By the end of this CPE Course, you will leave with actionable knowledge to enhance your internal audit practices and navigate the complexities of today’s regulatory landscape. Whether an experienced auditor or new to the field, this course provides valuable perspectives and tools to elevate your internal audit processes.
