      • Brief about the session: “

      This session will mainly focus on how an agile internal audit approach can provide a timely internal audit service to the board (or equivalent governing body), audit committee, and senior management. This can be achieved by leveraging agile project management techniques such as sprints to split the internal audit engagements into manageable parts, enabling internal auditors and stakeholders to collaboratively work together to stay timely and quickly deliver internal audit services.

      The session will discuss the definition of agile auditing, its components, supporting elements, challenges, and risks. The session will expand to visualize the agile audit process while clearly showing how to maintain compliance with the IIA standards and IPPF.
