Module 1
Recent Trends in Internal Audit
As a third line of defence the internal audit function has a fundamental role in overseeing the effective performance of the organization overall governance framework. The role of internal audit has been continuously evolving to becoming a strategic partner to the Board of Directors playing a key role in continuously improving the organizations internal control environment. Today many internal audit functions are conducting internal audit reviews that a few years back where not to be found anywhere near the internal audit plan such as auditing culture, strategy, board performance, governance, conduct etc and this is only further conformance as to what extent this function is maturing every year. However, unfortunately, till today, the true role of the Internal Audit function is either not practiced correctly by internal audit practitioners or misunderstood by many of the stakeholders that have a direct relationship with the Internal Audit function. Therefore, this program aims to focus on the strategic value of the internal audit function to enable participants not only to obtain a deeper understanding of the nature of work relating to this function but also enabling them to better promote and communicate the value add this profession has to offer.

Module 4
Business Process Understanding
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. This is why we believe that this is a critical program that every internal auditor needs to attend to ensure that not only they understand the importance of this essential step in the internal audit methodology but also to enable them with key tools that will significantly enhance their process understanding capabilities. This program also addresses the final step of the internal audit methodology pertaining to communicating the internal audit results. This section of the training will enable participants to acquire the skills they require to start the long journey of continuously enhancing their communication and Internal Audit Writing skills. Below represents a detailed outline regarding the above. This program also includes a very interesting case study relating to understanding the procurement process.
