Focus & Features
To meet the demands of stakeholders (i.e., customers, regulators, etc.) and in creating a seamless information technology (IT) ecosystem, digital transformation initiatives are taking a big space in strategic plans of various companies. Regardless if these initiatives are developed in house or bought off-the-shelf, internal auditors play a very critical role in assessing the information technology project-related risks. Internal auditors may play as consultants in areas such as controls, security or project management or play a role in the assessment of the overall project management. Timely and effective participation of internal auditors may increase the project success.
Participants will have a better understanding of what IT project management is and its importance to the organization. They will also learn the various controls expected in an IT project and what permissible roles internal auditors may play.
This training engages participants through group sharing, case studies and other activities.
