Global Internal Audit Standards Training Course

Internal auditing is an independent, objective assurance and consulting activity designed to add value and improve an organization's operations. It enables professionals to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management, control, and governance processes. The release of the IIA Global Internal Audit Standards marks a pivotal shift in the profession, moving from the legacy IPPF to a more integrated, domain-based structure that addresses modern workforce pressures such as AI-driven risk, ESG reporting mandates, and cybersecurity volatility.

This course provides the bridge from theoretical knowledge to practitioner-level execution for Internal Auditors, Audit Managers, and Compliance Officers who must align their functions with these mandatory requirements. You will work directly with the five domains of the new standards to produce tangible outputs including updated Audit Charters, risk-based engagement plans, and Quality Assurance and Improvement Program (QAIP) frameworks. By mastering these standards, you position yourself as a strategic advisor capable of delivering evidence-based insights that protect organizational value and ensure rigorous adherence to international professional practices.

About the Course

The landscape of corporate governance is undergoing a fundamental transformation, requiring internal audit functions to demonstrate greater agility and strategic alignment than ever before. Organizations now demand results they can prove in areas such as digital transformation oversight, third-party risk management, and regulatory resilience. To meet these expectations, you must demonstrate specific capabilities including the ability to map audit activities to the IIA Global Internal Audit Standards, integrate COSO Internal Control components into testing, and leverage data analytics for continuous monitoring. This course moves beyond a simple reading of the standards to provide a structured system for implementation, ensuring your audit function remains relevant in a high-stakes environment.

During this five-day intensive program, you will learn to transition your existing audit methodologies to the 2024 Global Internal Audit Standards framework. This involves a hands-on practice of designing a risk-based audit plan, conducting engagement-level risk assessments, and formulating impactful audit reports that resonate with the Board and senior management. You will be introduced to advanced concepts such as auditing AI governance and ESG disclosures at an overview level, while gaining hands-on implementation skills for core audit processes. This course is specifically designed for professionals who must deliver high-quality assurance under constraints of limited resources, evolving technology, and increasing stakeholder scrutiny.


Target Audience

This training is essential for professionals responsible for maintaining the integrity, objectivity, and effectiveness of the internal audit function in any industry.

This course is designed for:

  • Internal Audit Associates seeking to align their fieldwork with the 2024 Standards
  • Internal Audit Managers responsible for supervising engagement teams and workpapers
  • Chief Audit Executives (CAE) updating the Internal Audit Charter and strategy
  • Compliance Officers coordinating with internal audit on regulatory risk coverage
  • Risk Management Specialists integrating ISO 31000 with internal audit activities
  • External Auditors requiring a deep understanding of internal audit reliance standards
  • GRC Professionals managing integrated governance and control frameworks
  • Quality Assurance Auditors performing internal or external assessments of audit functions
  • IT Audit Specialists aligning technology audits with global professional standards
  • Board Audit Committee Members overseeing the effectiveness of the internal audit function

Course Objectives

This course equips you to design, execute, and measure internal audit initiatives that enhance organizational governance, ensure standard compliance, and achieve strategic objectives.

By the end of this course, you'll be able to:

  • Analyze the 2024 IIA Global Internal Audit Standards to identify critical implementation gaps
  • Apply the Code of Ethics and professional conduct requirements to complex audit scenarios
  • Design an Internal Audit Charter that reflects the mandatory requirements of Domain 2
  • Develop a risk-based annual audit plan aligned with organizational strategy and COSO frameworks
  • Execute audit engagements using standardized work programs and evidence-based testing methodologies
  • Evaluate the effectiveness of internal controls using the Global Internal Audit Standards criteria
  • Construct a Quality Assurance and Improvement Program (QAIP) to monitor audit function performance
  • Synthesize audit findings into high-impact reports that drive management action and Board oversight

Requirements & Prerequisites

Participants should have a foundational understanding of internal control concepts and at least 1-2 years of experience in an audit, risk, or compliance role. Familiarity with the previous IIA IPPF framework is beneficial but not required. No programming or advanced statistical knowledge is necessary, though a laptop with spreadsheet software is required for exercises.


Local Application and Business Return

How participants can apply the training in local operating conditions, and the return their organisation can plan for.

How participants apply this

In Taiwan, participants will primarily apply this course by aligning their internal audit charters and methodologies with the IIA Global Internal Audit Standards, and then socialising these changes with boards, audit committees, and regulators. They will use the domain-based structure of the new Standards to redesign risk-based audit planning, especially around priority areas such as AI-related risks, cybersecurity, and ESG reporting. For listed and regulated entities, learners can map the Standards to local corporate governance codes and control expectations, ensuring that internal audit work papers, reports, and QAIP documentation are defensible in inspections or external reviews. They can also use the course outputs to clarify the "three lines" roles internally, avoiding overlaps with risk management and compliance functions.

Expected ROI

Within 6–12 months, organisations can expect more focused, risk-based audit plans that are explicitly linked to the IIA Global Internal Audit Standards, making it easier to justify coverage to boards and regulators. Engagement execution typically becomes more consistent, as teams adopt standardised planning, fieldwork, and reporting templates aligned to the five domains, reducing rework and review time. The QAIP frameworks developed in the course support more systematic self-assessments and, where relevant, external quality assessments, improving the perceived credibility of the internal audit function. Over time, the internal audit team is better positioned to provide advisory insights on AI, cybersecurity, and ESG risks, which can reduce incident frequency and enhance stakeholder confidence even if those benefits are not easily quantified.

Training Methodology

This is a practical, outcome-driven course designed to turn audit aspirations into measurable action and credible reporting through hands-on application.

Methodology includes:

  • Hands-on calculation of audit materiality and sample sizes using statistical tools
  • Scenario simulation requiring independence decisions under conflicting stakeholder pressures
  • Audit Charter diagnostic using the IIA Domain 2 compliance checklist
  • Stakeholder mapping exercise to align audit strategy with Board and Management expectations
  • Case study analysis from financial services, manufacturing, and public sector environments
  • Group workshop producing a risk-based engagement work program for a digital process
  • Reflection exercise benchmarking current audit manuals against the 2024 Standards requirements

The IIA Global Internal Audit Standards are professional standards, not laws, but they provide the accepted benchmark for internal audit practice globally. In Taiwan, listed and regulated entities are expected to demonstrate sound internal controls and governance; aligning internal audit practices with the Standards helps show boards, supervisors, and regulators that the function operates in line with international professional practice and supports compliance with local governance codes.

Most organisations can adapt their current methodology rather than starting from scratch. This course focuses on mapping your existing charters, manuals, and templates to the five domains, identifying gaps, and prioritising pragmatic changes in areas such as independence, risk-based planning, engagement documentation, and QAIP, so that your materials reflect the new structure without causing unnecessary disruption.

The Standards require internal auditors to have or obtain the knowledge needed to evaluate significant risks, which includes AI use and cybersecurity where they are material. In practice, this means scoping audits based on risk, using co-sourcing or subject-matter experts when necessary, and focusing on governance, risk management, and control processes around these technologies rather than attempting to duplicate technical security testing.

Yes, but mainly in ways that enhance clarity and alignment with governance expectations. Reporting will be more explicitly tied to risk and control objectives, with clearer statements about conformance with the Standards, coverage of key risk areas such as ESG and cybersecurity, and the status of your QAIP, which usually strengthens the audit committee’s confidence in internal audit’s assurance.

The Standards require all internal audit activities, regardless of size, to maintain a QAIP, but it can be scaled to the function’s resources. Small teams can implement streamlined periodic self-assessments, basic performance metrics, and occasional external validation, which this course will help you design in a way that is practical and proportionate to your organisation.
