The Financial Audit Case Studies Training Course from Imperial Corporate Training Institute aims to connect the concepts of audit theory with the application of audits by providing industry-relevant, well-defined, and detailed case studies. The emphasis of this training program is on practical auditing and will look at numerous examples of actual financial audit cases (including historical examples of audit failure), successful audit engagement, and complex issues related to financial reporting. The participants of this course will have the opportunity to use and apply their critique of the Audit Standards, Professional Judgment, and their analytics in a controlled learning environment reflective of actual audit assignments.
The course provides an in-depth review of financial audit case studies that allow learners to identify areas of risk, assess internal controls, determine appropriate levels of audit evidence and arrive at appropriate audit conclusions. The course incorporates the international auditing practices of financial audits combined with hands-on case study analysis to assist participants in better understanding how these audit principles are applied within various types of organizations. The training program focuses on using real-life audit cases and this method greatly enhances Critical Thinking Skills, Professional Scepticism Skills, Decision-Making Skills and many other skills needed by auditors today.
