Audit Methodologies and Documentation

Description

*Qualifies for Yellow Book CPE credit*

Have you ever wanted to say something in your audit report but couldn't support with evidence? Or have you ever wasted a significant amount of time on a test that you didn't need to perform? We will design audit methodologies that get you where you want to go as quickly and as easily as possible. The resulting working papers convince your audit leadership that you can confidently conclude against your audit objective.

This course is centered on the requirements for evidence and documentation described in the GAO's Yellow Book.

This event may be a rebroadcast of a live event and the instructor will be available to answer your questions either during or after the event.
