A practical guide to risk based operational auditing of core business processes coupled with insights on how to audit major contracts and projects, joint venture companies and outsourced operations

Date: 6 - 10 October 2008, Johannesburg, South Africa
Fees: £2,195.00
Prerequisites Basic auditing experience.

This five day seminar provides practical and valuable guidance on risk based operational auditing and leading edge techniques in auditing. It teaches participants how to identify and prioritise the risks and assess the efficiency, effectiveness & economics of both core and non core business processes providing practical exercises to help delegates gain confidence in the techniques presented and in their own ability to use them. Auditing non core activities often proves more difficult to audit because the associated risks to business objectives are often less well known and are new territory for the business as well as for the internal auditors. Joint ventures, major contracts and projects and outsourced operations are all explored in detail to provide delegates with insights from practical experience on where the efficiency, effectiveness and economics might not be realised as well as highlighting key areas to focus on to ensure that key risks are being appropriately managed. Delegates are provided with the opportunity to practice facilitating risk identification workshops and to review the challenges for Internal Audit in its approach to and involvement with risk management and the role internal audit can play in facilitating risk management within their organisations. Participants will learn the benefits that risk based auditing can have in focusingauditing effort on the key risks that threaten the achievement of business objectives and how to reflect and prioritise risk in their audit reports. Both aspects of risk, threats and opportunities, are covered. Through participating in discussions and case studies of real life examples delegates will gain the knowledge and confidence to use the latest risk based auditing techniques to audit both the core business processes together with some of the often more demanding activities of major contracts and projects, joint venture companies and outsourced operations.
