The Ocean State Chapter, formerly the Providence Chapter, was founded on September 26, 1979 by a small group of internal auditors who belonged to the Boston Chapter. They decided there was enough interest in the Providence area to begin a separate Chapter, so here we are!
Our membership has over 250 members representing almost 40 businesses, universities, and government agencies throughout Rhode Island and southeastern Massachusetts. Through monthly meetings and seminars, the Ocean State Chapter provides a varied program of education and networking opportunities.
