Program & Topic
Audit evidence, assertions, documentation, and conclusions
The foundation of any audit is the evidence gathered and evaluated by the auditor. The
auditor must have the knowledge and skill to accumulate sufficient appropriate audit
evidence. We will at look how to get the right balance of your documentation.
Morning tea
Integrating audit sampling, audit risk and materiality
Understanding the interaction of audit risk, materiality and appropriate sampling
techniques helps choosing the best audit approach and avoids “killer” documentation
errors. We will clarify the difference between “selecting items for testing” (judgemental
testing ) and appropriate “sampling” procedures.
Networking lunch
The revised audit reporting model
Why and how auditors and their clients need to adapt now for “key audit matters” in the
public domain. We aim to distinguish key audit matters from other matters reported to
Those Charged with Governance.
Fraud auditing
Auditors need to develop an investigative eye toward fraud activities. We will provide
some tips and tools.
Afternoon tea
Latest developments in auditing and assurance rules
