The concept of continuous auditing has been around for many years. It has been talked about, researched and theorised. Many organisations have made significant investments of time and money, yet for most organisations it is nothing more than an unrealised dream. As a matter of fact, one organisation's version of continuous auditing may differ dramatically from another organisation's implementation. This event will look at the reasons for this. It will look at how organisations and auditors can breach the gap and turn the concept into reality.

The educational event will also provide an understanding of the concepts and strategies required for continous auditing. During this session you will discover the benefits to be gained from continuous auditing and the practicalities of implementing it in your own organisation.
