About this program
Weak internal controls lead to errors in information and decision-making, and high-profile examples such as Barings, Allied Irish, Enron and Onetel have demonstrated the potential cost to organisations. This interactive one-day program will show you how a detailed understanding of effective internal controls can significantly reduce operational risk. A combination of group discussion and activities will give you the opportunity to apply the information learned to your organisation and identify appropriate solutions.
What will you learn?
This workshop will help you to understand effective internal controls and how they support all aspects of a business. You will be able to:
- Define the purpose and benefits of internal controls;
- Describe the main tools available and the process for developing new ones;
- Evaluate the limitations of internal controls;
- Identify weak internal controls;
- Argue the need for policies and procedures;
- Write clear policies and procedures; and
- Apply internal control principles conceptually to your own organisation to reduce risk.
