Developing
Effective and Efficient
Audit Programs
Financial
audits generally have a clearly defined set of audit
objectives and audit scope while performance audits
generally do not. For each audit, the audit organization
must determine the appropriate scope and objectives. That
requires analysis of what is needed and the most effective
approach to meet that need. This course addresses the three
essentials of audit planning: doing the right thing, doing
it right and documenting the process.
The
course covers the following topics:
·
Do the right
thing
o
What do we
(or the customers) need?
o
How can we
obtain that result quickly, cheaply and with acceptable
quality?
·
Issues to
consider for each audit
·
Required
steps for all audits
·
Risk
assessment
·
Considering
fraud as one of the risks
·

process
