Aligning Your QAIP with the Strategy of the Internal Audit Function

A Quality Assurance and Improvement Programme (QAIP) can be either a compliance exercise or a practical tool for helping the internal audit function achieve its strategic objectives. This half-day workshop demonstrates how to assess, develop, and use a QAIP in accordance with the Global Internal Audit Standards. Participants will learn how to select meaningful performance measures, avoid the pitfalls of poorly defined or misused KPIs, use quality assessments to drive continuous improvement, and demonstrate progress in enhancing the effectiveness of the internal audit function.
