The results of our 2020 Internal Audit Capabilities and Needs Survey, in which we take an in-depth look at the adoption of next-generation internal audit competencies such as agile auditing, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), robotic process automation (RPA) and continuous monitoring, among many others, reports scores from CAEs and internal audit professionals that are among the lowest levels in our entire survey.

During this webinar, we will engage in a lively discussion about this year's findings, with a particular focus on how most audit functions need to quickly improve their acquisition and development of next-generation auditing skills.

Learning Objectives:

Describe the importance of prioritizing next-generation internal audit competencies — especially enabling technologies.
Outline why CAEs need to take the lead in getting the function’s transformation on the audit committee’s agenda.
Discuss the importance of developing the right skill sets within a next-generation internal audit function.
