Course Description

As the digital age expands, the accessibility of data by auditors also increases the auditor’s ability to leverage audit automation tools to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of audits. This course is an excellent opportunity for you and your audit team to get exposure to different programs that may help drive your audits efficiencies.

Be ready to work as you will be provided with trial versions and the opportunity to work with data files in the selected audit tools. Participants will be broken into groups, and each group will be working with one of the audit tools, so register more people from your firm to get to play with each of the programs. Some tools require permission to install new applications on your laptop, so please be sure that you have administrative access to your computer as well.

Learning Objectives:


  • Identify the emerging “information ecosystem” and how this can be leveraged to gain audit efficiency or enable continuous audit capabilities

  • Determine an overview of current data extraction, preparation, and analysis tools that can be used to support the performance of analyses or audit procedures

  • Identify the benefits of hands-on access to audit tools and see comparative results of how different audit tools process data that you may receive from a client

  • Identify the additional skills and training auditors will need to be able to maximize the opportunities


Note: This course is designed to help firms select an audit support tool. Several vendors will provide attendees with trial access to their tools so that participants can get hands-on experience. We recommend that firms send multiple people to this course as they will only have enough time to work with one tool.
