5-Day Training - تدريب لمدة 5 أيام

OVERVIEW

The risk-Based Approach in Audit focuses on prioritising audit activities by identifying and concentrating on areas of higher risk within an organisation, regardless of the specific audit type. This approach ensures that auditors use their resources effectively by focusing on the areas most likely to have significant financial, operational, or compliance impacts.

The training covers the principles of risk-based auditing, including how to assess risks, evaluate internal controls, and rank audit priorities based on the likelihood and impact of potential issues. Participants will learn how to integrate risk assessments into the audit planning process, ensuring that audit efforts align with the organisation’s strategic objectives and risk appetite. The course also focuses on tools and techniques for conducting risk assessments, such as control self-assessments, risk matrices, and scenario analysis, helping auditors focus on critical areas while maintaining a comprehensive audit scope.

This programme is ideal for internal auditors, compliance officers, and financial professionals who want to adopt a risk-driven methodology in their audit practices. By focusing on high-risk areas, auditors can add more value to their organisations and ensure that significant risks are identified, evaluated, and mitigated effectively.
