Welcome to the IIA Vancouver Chapter!

Welcome to the IIA Vancouver Chapter

The Vancouver Chapter of the IIA was formed in the Spring of 1948, and a Charter was issued to the Chapter on September 23, 1948. We currently have over 500 members, and our purpose is to support the development of IA professionals in British Columbia.

We are an affiliate of The Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA), an international professional association with global headquarters in Altamonte Springs, Fla., USA. The IIA is the internal audit profession's global voice, recognized authority, acknowledged leader, chief advocate, and principal educator. Members work in internal auditing, risk management, governance, internal control, information technology audit, education, and security.
