Learning Objective

  • Evaluate the effectiveness of internal audit resource management strategies and human resource practices under Standard 10.2.
  • Analyze the contributions of external service providers and technology resources in enhancing internal audit functions.
  • Examine communication processes to ensure adequate reporting and clarity, focusing on Standard 11.2 and communicating audit results (Standard 11.3).
  • Identify and address errors and omissions in audit communications and evaluate processes for communicating acceptance of findings (Standard 11.4).
  • Enhance audit quality through internal assessments and performance measurements as outlined in Principle 12.

Course Overview

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

This CPE Course is the final part of the three-part series on Managing the Internal Audit Function. We examine concepts around resource management, communicating effectively, and enhancing quality. These courses move beyond the dictates of the GIAS and discuss methods to utilize to manage the function effectively. 

The first segment of this course looked at Domain IV and the first two Standards within that domain (Standard 9.1 and 9.2). Part two focused on Domain IV Standards 9.3 through 9.5, managing the internal audit methodology, internal audit, and aspects of coordination and reliance. Part three (this segment) focuses on the final standards in Domain IV related to managing resources, communicating, and quality. 

Key topics covered:

  • Effective Communication Strategies
  • Quality Assurance Methodologies
  • Auditor Competency Development
  • Performance Measurement Metrics

Join this CPE Course; participants will have a clearer understanding of the GIAS standards and how to apply them effectively.
