CIPFA is establishing an Internal Audit Special Interest Group to help CIPFA connect to the internal audit community across the regions and all parts of the public services. The new group was announced by the CIPFA President Brian Roberts at the CIPFA Internal Audit Conference on 11 May in Oxford.
The key activities of the group include:
- providing insights on the issues and challenges internal auditors are experiencing
- providing feedback to CIPFA on its products and services
- supporting a programme of thought leadership from CIPFA with suggestions for articles or longer research pieces and contributing articles themselves
- supporting CIPFA products and services with suggestions for conference speakers or topics of interest to internal auditors
- feeding back to any regional or sectoral groups on CIPFA activities or forthcoming events
- opportunity to work on internal audit related projects
- opportunity to network with other internal audit practitioners.
For more information please see the attached information sheet and nomination form. Forms should be returned to E: diana.melville@cipfa.org.
An information session is being planned on 10 July for nominees to get together and find out more.
