WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

DESCRIPTION

The International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (IAASB) regularly reviews and updates International Standards on Auditing (ISA) in order to improve the quality of audits. Recently, significant changes were made by the IAASA to audit risk assessment, risk assessment response, ethics and audit quality (see full list below under content). These changes require auditors to significantly change elements of their audit quality management and potentially their audit methodologies as well. 

This webinar deals with the relevant quality management standards, relevant ISAs, their objectives, and application as well as other related explanatory material. The webinar will guide delegates in meeting the requirements of ISA 200 which requires that a registered auditor must have an understanding of the entire ISA standard, its application, explanatory material, and objectives, as well as the requirements of the new suite of quality management standards.
