Auditing Bits in Bytes Session 1: Pre-Engagement Activities

ON-DEMAND VIDEO/ 2 Self Study CPE Credits

Auditing Bits in Bytes is a series of eight individual sessions that guides professionals through the complete audit process from "A to Z" - starting with Pre-Engagement Planning Activities, and going all the way through Wrap-up and Quality Control. In recent years the Auditing Standards Board has been issuing new and revised Statements on Auditing Standards at its most rapid pace ever, the GAO has been revising Government Auditing Standards in an effort to remain current, the PCAOB separately releases Auditing Standards related to audits of SEC "issuers" that directly influence standards established for "non-issuers," independence rules promulgated by all relevant standard setters have been clarified and enhanced, and Statements on Quality Control Standards for firms performing attestation services have also been revamped and strengthened. This program provides practical tips and best practices for ensuring an effective and efficient financial statement audit in compliance with relevant professional and regulatory standards.
