May Is International Internal Audit Awareness Month!
As an internal audit professional, you play an important role in raising awareness and elevating the profession. IIA offers you an important opportunity to promote the profession among your stakeholders.
For example, you can customize your email signature and social media accounts with the International Internal Audit Awareness Month digital icon (depicted above). You can hold a lunch-and-learn in your
workplace to dispel myths about internal auditing and explain the value that a well-resourced, independent internal audit function can provide. You can also raise the profile of your internal audit department’s staff
members by featuring their biographies in an article for your company’s intranet or internal newsletter.
Don’t let the opportunity pass to advocate the importance of internal auditing to your coworkers and other stakeholders. For additional ideas, sample programs, tips, and templates, download the free Building
Awareness Toolkit from The IIA’s website.
The IIA and ISACA are pleased to collaborate once again to bring you the 2019 Governance, Risk, and Control (GRC) Conference, “Where Governance and Risk Management Align for Impact.” Please
continue to check back, as additional details are forthcoming.
Join more than 700 governance, risk, and control professionals from 40+ countries at the event that draws together the best and brightest minds to embrace challenges, forge solutions, and define the
future of global GRC.

Check out our
“Quest for Platinum” status
every month!
Chapter Achievement Program (CAP) CAP is the acronym for Chapter Achievement Program. The program has been established on the premise that the basic mission of the chapter is to serve its members first and then the internal audit profession. The program, sponsored by the International IIA, encourages local chapters to be active both for the benefit of the chapter members and of the local community. Local chapters earn credits for the CAP through in the following categories: a) service to members; b) service to the profession, and c) chapter administration. The Chapter Achievement Program is made up of three performance levels: bronze (685 credits), silver (1,060 credits), and gold (1,560 credits). Thanks to your efforts, our chapter has attained gold status every year since 1997. After ten consecutive years of achieving gold, a chapter achieves Platinum level which this chapter has earned since 2006. So what can a member do to earn CAP points for the chapter? Examples, include:
Attend the monthly chapter meetings; Attend chapter sponsored seminars; Utilize the chapter sponsored Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) review course; Earn an IIA certification; Develop questions for the CIA exam; Recruit new members; Present speeches or training sessions; Write internal audit-related articles for publication; Provide an internal audit internship at your company for a student; and Come up with an innovative way to promote the chapter
So, it's easy to contribute and it doesn't take too much of an effort. You can report CAP activity on the chapter website or directly to the CAP Chairperson Brent Statler at [email protected].
