Remote Auditing Training Course

The course covers guidance on the processes and procedures required to perform remote audits, including the use of information and communication technology (ICT) to optimize the audit effectiveness and efficiency and support and maintain the integrity of the audit process. The focus of the course is on 1st and 2nd party audits.
