  • An identification of the competency-related requirements of the Global Internal Audit Standards.
  • An Internal Auditing Competency Framework that identifies significant groupings of knowledge and skill areas, along with standardized expectations for proficiency levels.
  • A section on how to use the Competency Framework Templates to help identify and assess relevant competencies, promote continuous professional development, and conform with the requirements in the Standards.

 

The flexible framework allows each organization to reflect its priorities in its desired mix of competencies and proficiency levels.
