The webinar examines not only the requirements outlined in the Global Internal Audit Standards but also progressive quality assurance (QA) practices. These include the development of an internal audit risk taxonomy and assessment, collaboration with second-line requirements, heat map reporting of weaknesses, data analytics, and continuous QA. A practical exploration will be provided to illustrate what effective QA looks like in internal auditing, both internally and through the management of the external quality assessment process required by the IIA standards.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 17px;\"><strong>Risk management<\/strong> &#8211; Internal audit functions carry the responsibility to actively manage their own risks, including those associated with audit activity and the operational aspects of running the function. This must be aligned with quality assessment activities while also addressing broader functional, reputational, and operational risks. Effective risk management practices include defining a clear risk appetite, conducting thorough risk control self-assessments, and establishing clear accountabilities for risk management. This training provides a practical framework and real-world examples to demonstrate the application of these practices.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; font-size: 18px; color: #000000;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>About the speaker:<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 17px;\"><strong>Jonathan Chapman<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 17px;\">Jonathan is a recognized leading authority on internal audit strategy.\u00a0 Delivering webinars and articles on the latest internal audit thinking on wide range of internal audit related topics (e.g. IA Strategy, High Performing IA teams, Data Analytics, Integrated Assurance, Effective Audit committee reporting, Quality in Internal Audit, Audit efficiency, Auditing culture, Effective Internal Audit people management, Behavioral Science in Internal Audit).\u00a0 Regular global audiences of over 5000.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 17px;\"><strong>Language:<\/strong> English<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 17px;\"><strong>Date:<\/strong> October 28, 2025<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 17px;\"><strong>Location:<\/strong> remote meeting via Teams (link will be provided prior to the event)<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 17px;\"><strong>CPE:<\/strong> \u00a03 CPE awarded<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 17px;\"><strong>Tickets:\u00a0 <\/strong><strong>150<\/strong> EUR for IIA Lithuania members and <strong>190<\/strong> EUR for non-members.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 17px;\">Webinar participants will receive additional materials.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 17px;\">Please contact us (administravimas@vaa.lt) if you have any questions.<\/span><\/p>\n\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"vc_empty_space\"   style=\"height: 32px\"><span class=\"vc_empty_space_inner\"><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row-full-width vc_clearfix\"><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Overview: Quality - This aspect of the training explores the key areas for successful quality management within internal auditing (IA).
