As our September luncheon speaker we will have the Houston Chapter’s own Paul Pettit, our IIA District Representative, share with us some of his unique audit and travel experiences. You should soon receive via email a survey soliciting your views on the Chapter’s services and ways the Chapter can better meet your professional audit needs.

Dear Houston Chapter Members, As we head into September, for most of us this corresponds with the an-nual budget cycle and kick off of audit planning for the next year. I hope you use the risk assessment and planning process to have meaningful stakeholder conversations soliciting their views on risk, business chang-es, and audit’s performance. We should take advantage of opportunities to professionally interact with management as audit success and per-ceived audit stature often correlate with the quality of communications and relationships. Listen for the “change” that your stakeholders anticipate. Whether it is change related to finan-cial investment, people, processes, applications, locations, or other business drivers, this change equates to risk that should be evaluated in creating the audit plan. By listening careful-ly, we will learn a lot about the business and will likely identify new ways to be a relevant and valued business partner. After applying critical thinking to develop an audit plan covering the organization’s higher risk areas, it is critical that the right people and skills are in place to effectively delivery the audit projects. We all must continuously learn new skills and be creative in developing or sourcing the capabilities necessary to help management address their dynamic business challenges. I hope you plan to attend our next Chapter meeting on September 10. Dr. Michael Newman will share his excitement about the Internal Audit Program at the University of Houston recently being named a Center of Excellence by The IIA. We congratulate UH on this major achieve-ment and are proud of our Chapter’s role over the years in financially supporting and assisting the advancement of the UH program.

Luncheon: Benefits of Pre-Registration
As auditors, our schedule can be unpredictable at times and at a last minute’s notice, we could be sent to work on a special assignment somewhere outside of Houston, or even outside of the country. Because of that, you may hesitate to pre-register for an event, just in case your schedule changes. Whenever possible, I would encourage our Chapter members to sign up by the Wednesday before each meeting. Here are some good reasons why you should pre-register for the event:
1. Members get a $5 discount if they pre-register for the meeting. In light of our economy and
companies’ focus on cost reduction, every dollar counts. 2. Only individuals pre-registered before the cut-off are entered into the drawing. If your name is not in the drawing, then you cannot win. If your name is in, your odds are about 1 to <200 to win, not so bad when compared to other games of luck. 3. Pre-registered members get their certification ribbons on their name tag. You get to show off your achievement. 4. On the day of event, you can check in quicker and save time. Bring your barcode to scan and within seconds, you will be in. You can use the time saved to network with your peers. 5. You can avoid the long line for walk-ins and possibility of miskeying your name or email address and not getting your CPE certificate. Not good when that one credit hour would make a difference. 6. Lastly, you can help make your and other attendees’ experience at the event more pleasant. Right now, headcount has to be estimated to account for walk-ins and committed to the Houston Club two days before each event. Significant unexpected number of walk-ins poses challenges for the facility personnel to serve all attendees timely. We want everyone to be able to sit down, relax, eat and listen to the speaker when the meeting begins.

Congratulations UH!
We are proud to announce that the Internal Audit
program at the University of Houston has been
transitioned from an IAEP Comprehensive Internal
Audit Program to an IAEP Center for Internal Audit
Excellence Program. This is a great accomplish-
ment for the University of Houston and the City of Houston, and the Houston IIA Chapter is proud of
its financial contributions and other assistance provided over the years.
The University of Houston is only the sixth IAEP program globally to become a Center of Excellence
program and is the third in the United States.
Centers for Internal Auditing Excellence are identified as teaching a curriculum within a college or
university degree and recognizes the quality, sustainability, volume of students completing the pro-
gram, and longevity of the program.
The Internal Auditing Education Partnership (IAEP) program was developed
by The IIA Academic Relations Committee to respond to the growing interest
in internal audit education at institutions of higher learning. The program
addresses a general need of practitioners interested in hiring students who
possess a well-rounded skill set for conducting internal auditing.
The IAEP program prepares students with the skills and knowledge to conduct basic internal audits
immediately upon hire, as well as provide a foundation to begin preparing for the Certified Internal
Auditor® (CIA®) examination.
A celebration event is being planned to recognize the University of Houston on their major
achievement.
The University of Houston is now an IAEP Center for Internal Audit Excellence

Chapter Achievement Points (CAP)!
One of the ways we gauge our success as a Chapter is through the Chapter Achievement Program (CAP). CAP points are earned for our accomplishments in three areas:
1. Service to Members
2. Service to the Profession
3. Chapter Administration
Our goal is nothing short of the highest level of Gold! We are two months into our 2012-2013 Chapter year and we are 6% of the way to achieving our goal with 91 points. How Do We Get CAP Points? We receive CAP points for providing services to our members. For example, this includes educational offerings for our members as well as networking events. We also get CAP points for providing services to the profession. This comes from having members of our Chapter submitting articles to the Internal Auditor Magazine, sup-porting our local universities, and making presentations on the relevant subjects such as internal audit, ERM, fraud, and other risk related topics. We also get CAP points for properly administering the Chapter activities and our timely reporting to the IIA. What Can You Do? Simply, keep participating in all of the educational events we provide – from the luncheons to the semi-nars to the roundtable discussions. You can also help by letting us know when you:
Speak about the profession or on internal audit related topics to others outside of your company,
Submit exam questions for the CIA exam,
Participate in an IIA-sponsored Quality Review,
Participate in IIA research projects,
Teach in Junior Achievement, and
Submit an article to the Internal Auditor (extra points for getting published!!!)
These are just a few examples. Do your part in helping us maintain our premier Platinum standing as an IIA Chapter. Email Dan Ramey at [email protected] with the details of your accomplishments and activities. What Else Can I Do? Want to get more involved? Contact Chapter President, Larry Abston, or Vice President of Membership, Ryan O’Day, to explore opportunities for involvement. Thanks for your help!
