Course summary

The Internal Auditor Professional – Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) Pathway has been developed to provide learners with support when undertaking the CIA qualifications who perhaps do not wish to complete a full 3-year MSc programme or who are unable to access the English Apprenticeship levy through the Internal Audit Professional Apprenticeship (IAPA) programme. The course’s over-riding philosophy is to equip those working within the internal audit profession with the conceptual understanding, knowledge and skills to contribute positively to the organisations that they work for. The course is divided into 6 modules which are aligned to the Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) syllabus and for those who wish to continue subsequently to then attain Chartered status, there is the option to “top up” this qualification to attain the Chartered Internal Auditor (CMIIA) designation. The course has been carefully mapped against the syllabi of the CIA and as part of this course learners will be supported in sitting the external exams required in order to obtain the CIA designation. In addition, their first year’s CPD for ethics which is a requirement of the awarding body, will be completed as part of the programme when learners have successfully completed the Ethics for Internal Auditors module.
