Overview:

Invigorate your creativity about how to reduce the cycle-time for your performance audits. Reducing cycle time can be done while maintaining quality, meeting user information needs and complying with auditing standards. Learn when it is appropriate to offer clients alternatives to classic "full scope" audit coverage. Explore the unique auditor-client relationship that must be established to deliver products quickly and learn how to tailor audit products to better meet client needs. Drawing on case studies, you learn to write objectives to facilitate prompt field work, timely reporting and ways to narrow or limit the scope of audit work to satisfy the objectives.
