Featured  Topic:  Results  of  the  IIA  Audit  ExecuCve  Center’s  “The Pulse  of  the  Profession  2012  Global  Insights”  published

Last month, the Institute of Internal Auditor’s (IIA) Audit Executive’s Center published the results of their global study based upon the Global Pulse of the Profession Survey conducted in May 2012. The survey included international feedback from various regions around the world. The 1149 survey participants included internal audit professionals and CAEs from 77 countries.

According to the IIA, the survey results revealed:

•Key Point 1: Internal audit resources (i.e., staff and budget levels) have generally stabilized.•Key Point 2: Planned audit coverage for the rest of 2012 does not fully align with the risks and priorities of key audit stakeholders.•Key Point 3: CAEs are recruiting candidates with skills that mirror areas of emerging internal audit coverage, thus continuing to evolve away from skills historically associated with the internal audit profession.•Key Point 4: Most audit committees are signaling increasing support of their CAE and internal audit department.•Key Point 5: Opportunities remain to maximize the relationship between the audit committee and internal audit function, especially in Latin America.

Interesting trends were revealed from the study. For Key Point 2, the survey for North America indicated that the Top 5 risk areas for Planned audits were 1) Financial risks, 2) Operational risks, 3) Compliance risks, 4) Fraud risks and 5) Strategic risks. However, the Top 5 Stakeholder risks areas were 1) Compliance risks, 2) Operational risks, 3) Financial risks, 4) IT risks, and 5) Strategic risks. Even though a one for one alignment was not required the survey, the survey did reveal somewhat of a misalignment between planned audits risk areas and stakeholders risk areas.

In addition, the IIA provided takeaways associated with each of the key points. For example, for Key Point #2 as previously discussed for North America, the survey revealed the attention to Sarbanes-Oxley may be elevating internal audit department’s audit plan time to financial risk areas and questions whether enough time is spent on Information Technology.

Detailed survey results to the five key items above can be found in “The Pulse of the Profession 2012 Global Insights” report. For your convenience we have provided the following link:https://na.theiia.org/services/cae-resources/Public Documents/The Pulse of the Profession_2012 Global Insights.pdf

We would like to hear your comments regarding the survey and your experiences, visit us on LinkedIN.

CIA  Exam  Changes  in  2013  

The Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) IIA Global Headquarters has announced impending changes to the Certified Internal Auditor® (CIA®) program scheduled for 2013. In response to findings from a Job Analysis Study (JAS) for the CIA program conducted in 2011, The Professional Certifications Board (PCB) and the Board of Directors of The IIA have approved two key changes to the program. The JAS determined that the body of knowledge related to the profession of internal auditing has changed since the last exam content update in 2004 and therefore needs to be adjusted to reflect those changes.

The first change will impact the exam structure, reducing the program from four to three exam parts. With the reduction in parts, The IIA will be eliminating the recognition credit provision previously applicable to Part 4 of the exam. The second change consists of a realignment of the exam content outline and question count for each part.

The new content and three-part exam structure are scheduled to be implemented by mid-2013. The IIA is currently working to finalize the transition process for those who are currently in the CIA program and do not complete the program prior to the implementation of the new structure.

FEATURED  MEMBER  

If you would like to nominate a member to be featured in the newsletter, and learn more about their audit experience and background, please let us know.

1. Tell us about yourself and audit/ financial career.

I began my career 17 years ago with a small Albuquerque CPA firm auditing small business financial statements and employee benefit plans. While there I married my wife and earned my CPA designation. Later, I moved back to the Fort Wayne area and began working for a local CPA firm providing a broad range of services. In 2005 I moved to Superior Essex to help start up their Fort Wayne Internal Audit department focusing mainly on Sarbanes Oxley testing. While there I earned my CIA and CFE. In late 2010 I joined Lincoln Financial Group’s Mutual Fund Administration oversight team. I have an 11-year-old son, an 8-year-old daughter, and a 5-year-old Toy Poodle.

2. Why did you become a member of the IIA?

I joined the IIA as part of a group membership while with Superior Essex. Since I was new to the Internal Audit profession, I had no expectations of my membership. I have since come to appreciate the resources and extensive knowledge base of the IIA and its membership.

3. What are some of your greatest successes or contributions?

I helped implement Sarbanes Oxley audit procedures and audit documentation from scratch. I developed management, accounting personnel, and external auditor relationships that allowed management to feel comfortable using Internal Audit as a resource for problem solving.

4. Please share with the membership professional insights you may have or the name of a recent book you have read?

I have learned that the single most important skill any team member can develop is his/her ability to relate with other people by treating them with respect and courtesy.

4. Please tell us something most do not know about you?

My nickname is Lenny (it has nothing to do with Laverne and Shirley).

   CHAPTER  ACHIEVEMENT  UPDATE  (CAP)  

The Chapter Achievement Program (CAP) is designed by the Institute of Internal Auditors to recognize activities that promote the strategic objectives of The IIA. This program provides minimum standards of performance, emphasizes the basic mission of the Chapter, encourages Chapters to perform that mission, and provides Chapters with a means to evaluate their success in accomplishing that mission. With one month to go in the Chapter year, we have achieved the goal of 1,560 CAP points! Fort Wayne remains Platinum going into the 2012-2013 program year.

Additional CAP InformationA chapter must earn the minimum CAP points in each of the three service categories (Service to Members, Service to the Profession, and Chapter Administration) participate in the CAP program. Once the chapter has met or exceeded the minimum CAP Requirements in the three categories, the chapter will have reached the BRONZE performance level. A chapter can advance to SILVER or GOLD levels by accumulating the points noted below - made up of any combination of CAP points from the three service levels (while also meeting the minimums above).

▪ BRONZE - 685 CAP Points▪ SILVER - 1,060 CAP Points▪ GOLD - 1,560 CAP Points

PLATINUM - This is a special level created to recognize chapters that attain GOLD status for 10 of 11 consecutive years. The chapter will continue to be recognized as platinum level each year thereafter it the chapter achieves the Gold CAP level for 10 of 11 consecutive years.
