eAuditing Fundamentals: Virtual Communication and Remote Auditing: 20[M] Ed.

The course is designed to provide an understanding of the basics for conducting remote audits (e-audits). Learn the e-auditing process from a veteran of conducting remote audits for over 10 years. Learn the answers to How to do it right, what skills you will need, how will my organization benefit, what are the risks and how do I implement an eAuditing program? The need to control auditing costs and manage both internal and external supplier networks requires us to learn and use the technology available to us. The course is intended for: 1) auditors that want to learn about remote techniques and problems to avoid, 2) for those interested in managing, implementing or conducting e-audits, or 3) as continuing education for self-improvement. The e-Auditing Fundamentals course consists of series of lessons, illustrations, diagrams, interactive exercises, and quizzes. This class is not about how to conduct system or process audits. Instead it is about virtual communications for teams and remote audits. Successful completion of the class will result in a certificate for 5 contact hours (.5 CEUs). The subscription length is for 90 days.
