Description

What would you do if you only had one workday to complete a financial statement audit? How would you optimize just a handful of hours? What would you test? More importantly, what would you minimize or eliminate? Although one day is unrealistically short, it illustrates how risk-based auditing can help auditors optimize professional effort. This course emphasizes the importance of risk assessment for enhancing both the effectiveness and efficiency of audit procedures.

"Great CPE"

Brian W

"All auditors should attend this course - it accurately explains where to focus in an audit where controls are not tested / not reliable. Focus on what matters, what would cause us to issue incorrect opinion where our error was due to Non-sampling Risk, don't let that be the reason."

"Excellent Speaker I enjoyed learning the equations"
