Understanding risk is one of the auditor’s greatest assets. During this workshop, participants will explore a wide variety of risks including internal, external, entity-wide, activity-level, financial, operational, and reputational. Furthermore, participants will study the COSO framework to enhance their knowledge of risk and control. Finally, participants will develop a risk-based audit program to reinforce concepts learned.
