To Access This Course:
Internal Audit and especially the Chief Audit Executive (CAE) are expected to be the "independent ear" on the business for the audit committee. Yet, any organizations have difficulty accepting that role.
As a past CAE, I have experienced both success and failure working with the audit committee, and in each situation I took away critical learnings. This course shares the important lessons learned to assist internal audit in developing strong and lasting relationships with critical stakeholders.
Learning Objectives
- Explore the top 5 Lessons learned when dealing with the audit committee
- Recognize keys to building effective communications with the committee
- Explore how to gain the confidence of the audit committee
- Explore how to balance management concerns with audit committee relationships

Helpful information was presented in this course, it serves as an informative guide to put a "best foot forward" in regards to developing a relationship with the audit committee. I would reccommend this course to internal audit management/leadership interesting in better understanding the relationship between Internal Audit and the Audit Committe.

Excellent training like all her trainings. Very practical and useful for us, auditors. I have to say that questions were confusing I do not know if these were confusing on purpose or because there was no other way of writing these. Overall an excellent presentation.
