Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) Part 2 - New Syllabus

We are glad to bring you a preparation course for the Part 2 of the Institute of Internal Auditor’s (IIA) Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) certification.

This teaches the new syllabus of the CIA and includes a 402 page slide deck given to download in the course.

You can start with any part of the CIA, and starting with the CIA Part 2 will give you the knowledge and tools necessary to perform, supervise and eventually manage internal audits.

This course aims to decrease the time you need to prepare for the exam. It includes instructor support for your questions.

It will review the key notions necessary for the exam and includes practice questions in each section and tips on exam strategy.

The course will help you learn how to perform internal audit, starting from how to plan them, to how to perform and report on engagement results.

You will learn tricky concepts such as how to perform risk-assessments and how to evaluate information.

Most importantly, it aims to help you ‘think’ like an internal auditor, which I find is essential for scoring highly on the exam as well as being a great internal auditor.
