Internal auditors are expected to follow the IIA’s Global Internal Audit Standards. Domain II: Ethics and Professionalism contains five principles covering the ethical requirements for the profession. Each principle contains standards that internal auditors are expected to apply and uphold. The ethical requirements of each principle help internal auditors translate them into practical behavioral norms. Adherence to these norms is critically important for any industry, but even more so in the public sector, due to expectations for oversight and transparency as it relates to taxpayer-funded projects and programs.
This course is intended to demonstrate how to achieve conformance with all five principles and is specifically geared toward the public sector environment. Furthermore, the scenarios in the course provide real-life examples of how to deal with and resolve situations encountered by internal auditors in the public sector regarding ethical decisions.
