By the end of the course, you ought to be able to apply these policies and procedures in the real world and have a general understanding of how a GAAS audit is carried out, what main components are necessary, the significance of risk assessment, and how to apply these policies and procedures without having to read the nearly 1,000 pages of the Generally Accepted Auditing Standards.
