The future of the profession

Meet the future of the internal audit profession​

Internal audit employers consider recruitment vital to the success of their departments. To help fill the pipeline with graduates ready to hit the ground running, The Internal Audit Academic Alliance (Formerly IAEP Program) was created to support institutions of higher education in creating stellar learning opportunities for those interested in a career in internal auditing.

We need your support

Support of The IIA’s Academic Relations efforts are made possible through the Internal Audit Foundation’s Academic Fund. The Foundation has awarded more than $2 million in grants to universities around the globe to fund educator and student development, program development, scholarships and more.

More than 150 universities within our Academic Alliance are eligible for grant funding through the Foundation and your support is crucial to help us meet the need of our program universities. We need your continued help to sustain the investment in developing the future careers of students worldwide. Together, we can set the standards for audit-ready students and provide them with a rewarding career path.

Charitable gifts are tax deductible to the extent of the law.
