Course Overview
Internal audit plays a critical role in strengthening governance, improving controls, and supporting organisational risk management. This programme equips learners with the knowledge and practical skills required to perform effective internal audits across business functions.
Through mentor-led sessions, participants will explore risk-based audit planning, fieldwork execution, and structured reporting. The course is grounded in practical scenarios that reflect real audit engagements, enabling learners to build confidence in applying audit techniques in day-to-day roles.
