نبذة عن الدورة التدريبية
In recent years, many internal audit departments encountered frequent situations where they were forced to alter and amend their Internal Audit Plans. This process has become so repetitive that no Internal Audit Plan was being fully implemented within its pre-approved timeline. While the process is normal and expected, the frequency of these changes is not.
These changes are attributable to the continuous challenges organizations are facing as a result of emerging global, environmental, regulatory and industry specific risks.
In a post Covid-19 era, the emerging challenges and risks are going to increase exponentially as we enter a blue ocean of challenges for which modern organizations have not previously been exposed to. This will significantly impact the way organizations are going to be governed and managed.
The Internal Audit Profession has proved to be a progressive profession based on forward thinking and addressing challenges before they happen. Hence, the internal audit profession will further seek to adapt to these changes and find ways for which it can fulfil its professional objectives in alignment with changes in organizational governance.
To assist internal auditors in achieving these objectives, Agile Internal Auditing has become a popular approach to enable internal auditors to become more effective, efficient, risk focused, flexible and driven by strategic objectives and organizational value.
This program has been tailored to assist internal audit professionals in understanding the Agile Internal Auditing Methodology and illustrating to them the different means by which they can make the transition effectively.
Keeping mind that going agile is more about mindset, culture and approach, we detail below the different topics we will address in this training.

Part 3
Applying Agile Auditing to Internal Audit Execution
In all our internal audit courses we always send a direct and a clear message to our trainees “A flawed process understanding results in a flawed internal audit review”.
Many internal auditors fall into the trap of allocating minimal time on process understanding and deep diving directly into internal control testing. This habit has severe implications such as:
→ Key controls going undetected and therefore untested.
→ Key control design deficiencies going unnoticed
→ Not identifying unmitigated process risks
→ Missing out on essential opportunities for data analytics
→ Not identifying essential areas where process effectiveness can be significantly improved.
Agile auditing adopts a different notion to process understanding than the one Internal Auditors are typically used to and therefore we address here how this critical process will be conducted within an Agile Auditing Methodology.
Internal audit testing & execution will also be altered in the way they are conducted and we highlight key differences in approaches to be adopted for testing of internal controls within an Agile Auditing Methodology.
