Event Details
Focus & Features
An internal audit activity demonstrates its commitment to quality by meeting the expectations of its stakeholders while continuing to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of its operations. A successful quality assurance and improvement program (QAIP) is crucial to achieving this goal.
The required elements of a Quality Assurance and Improvement Program (QAIP) include periodic internal assessments and external assessments to demonstrate conformance with The IIA's International Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing. In addition, a quality QAIP can provide evidence to the audit committee and management that the internal audit activity is efficient, effective, and adding value.
This course is designed to help participants learn how to perform a periodic Internal Quality Assessment (IQA), following the methodology of an External Quality Assessment (EQA). The learning methodology combines lectures, facilitated discussions, and self-assessment activities. Following the quality assessment process flow model and the tools in the Quality Manual, participants can determine baseline current level of conformance, identify areas for improvement, and determine the corresponding action plans.
In summary, the course enables participants to: (a) gain a better understanding of the IPPF and its conformance requirements, (b) experience conducting an IQA, and (c) determine current level of conformance requirements and chart the action plans to prepare for an EQA.
