Training Description:<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The new Global Internal Audit Standards aim to raise the bar for internal audit services across the world. They represent the most significant change in the profession for at least the last 25 years. Are you ready for this?!<\/span><\/p>\n

What do the Global Internal Audit Standards mean for us? What has changed? Where is the bar raised? What will we need to do to conform with the new challenges and opportunities that these present us \u2013 as internal audit teams and internal auditors \u2013 going forward?<\/span><\/p>\n

This course aims to provide answers to some of these questions in an interactive and participative forum and to assist you in planning effectively for the formal \u2018go live\u2019 date of 2025.<\/span><\/p>\n

The second half of the day begins to look in a little more detail about ESG – perhaps one of the most topical areas in our world of governance, risk, and control. The ECIIA\u2019s Risk in Focus 2024 Survey reported that Climate change, biodiversity and environmental sustainability <\/em>are seen as the top five risks by as much as 32% of CAEs. But this is just one element that ESG covers!<\/span><\/p>\n

Do you want to stay ahead of the game and hear more about the topical issues covered by ESG: Environmental, Social, and Governance? This will help you better meet your stakeholders current and future assurance needs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our key stakeholders require internal audit engagements that are insightful forward-looking, and go beyond simply preserving value to creating value for our organisations. This course will begin to show you where you can begin to provide effective, professional internal audit assurance on these critical subjects, enabling you to deliver well-received engagements that deliver the insight our boards need.<\/span><\/p>\n

Who should attend?<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This course is designed for chief audit executives, internal audit managers, senior internal auditors and internal auditors involved in planning and delivering assurance engagements in these topical areas. It is also suitable for other professionals in the second line who are interested in finding out more about these subjects.<\/span><\/p>\n
