Welcome to the IIA Central Virginia Chapter
Established in 1949, IIA Central Virginia Chapter 37 is one of the longest-standing chapters in the Institute of Internal Auditors network. With more than 500 members, we serve the Richmond area and the broader Central Virginia region, including all cities and counties in the 804 area code and the Charlottesville area.
Our mission is to promote and advance the internal audit profession in Central Virginia by providing valuable professional development, networking, and leadership opportunities to our members and the broader business community.
Each year we offer Continuing Professional Education through local chapter events, CAE Roundtables, and the annual Virginia Training Academy, held in collaboration with the Tidewater and Southwest Virginia Chapters. We also host joint programming and social events with professional partner organizations throughout the year.

The Chapter is proud to have achieved Gold status in the Chapter Achievement Program for the past several consecutive chapter years. Gold status reflects our chapter's commitment to member service, professional development, and advancing the internal audit profession.
Our Academic Relations efforts are focused on connecting students and educators with the internal audit profession through events, outreach, and engagement opportunities at local colleges and universities. Scholarships and financial support for students are initiatives we explore as funding allows.
