This event is the place to be and hear all about leading practices, new tools, and the latest techniques. Reconnect with colleagues and expand your network to fuel your passion for the profession at Canada’s premier internal audit event.
This year’s theme, Capitalizing on our Diversity, will celebrate the collective strength of the Canadian internal audit community. The program will appeal to public and private sector auditors, CAEs, novices, experts, industry partners and stakeholders. It will also highlight the diverse skillsets internal auditors bring to their organizations and shine a spotlight on inspiring DEI leaders. Learn insights and best practices you can use immediately to improve your skill set, regardless of your career level.
Internal auditors have increasingly become indispensable parts of their organizations. By providing value-added, just-in-time assurance and advisory services, internal auditors must continue to strengthen their competencies and learn new skills. Join us in the nation’s capital for three days of engaging speakers and leading-edge topics. Come early or stay a couple of extra days to enjoy all that Ottawa has to offer.
