Reliable management information continues to be a ‘holy grail’ for many organisations, resulting in poor quality and less reliable decision making at every level. How good is your organisation’s management information and the ways in which it manages this information?


Presented by: John Chesshire

The Chartered IIA's Risk in Focus Survey reported that, “Data and information - whether customer credentials or intellectual property - are economic assets on which all organisations depend.”

Companies may no longer have a true picture of the extent of digitalisation within their organisation, who is responsible for it, the quality of the information produced and where the risks lie. In an effort to drive swift change, digitalisation may proliferate unchecked and key controls may not be paid their due attention, increasing security and data privacy vulnerabilities.

Do you want to stay ahead of the game and hear more about effective management information, information management and how digitalisation brings new opportunities and threats to any organisation?

With digitalisation shifting up a gear, the third line's first concern should be whether the business model is being sufficiently adapted to meet the new digital reality.

Our key stakeholders require internal audit engagements that are insightful, forward looking, and go beyond simply preserving value to creating value for our organisations. This accelerated course will show you where you can begin to provide effective, professional internal audit assurance on these critical subjects, enabling you to deliver well-received engagements that deliver the insight our boards need.
