The Center for Global Best Practices is launching this special CPD-accredited program titled, “Best Practices on How to Set Up an Internal Audit System” on May 19 and 20, 2016 at the EDSA Shangri-La Hotel, Mandaluyong City.

While external auditors plays a role in business, they rely only on the truthfulness of the financial statement provided to them.  It is the internal auditor who can police your operations to check if there are irregularities that are happening.  This provides you the need to have a well- functioning and effective internal audit system that can truly help you improve your risk management and cost control processes including monitoring and detecting fraud, provide recommendations for more sound corporate governance practices and very effective and efficient operations. This two-day special program is to help both for profit and non-profit organizations as well as private and public institutions in their capacity building to set up and maintain an internal audit department.  You can start with one person or a team of two to handle this function if you are a start-up or an SME, or a group handling that internal audit activity for bigger organizations.

This special program will feature Mary Jane O. Rosales, CPA, CIA. She was the president of The Institute of Internal Auditors in the Philippines in 2008. She has helped several organizations to improve their internal audit functions and aligned those with existing ones to the current best practices in internal audit.  Many of her initiatives are focused on promoting internal audit as a way to strengthen the performance of many organizations.

The LTO records proved that the former President did not sold his Porsche 911 Carrera car which he claimed he bought for P5 million.
