2009 Annual Conference

20 January, 2009 - 21 January, 2009

Alveston Manor, Stratford upon Avon

The world around us is changing rapidly, and internal audit’s ability to adapt to change is the focus of our always popular residential conference for all involved in internal audit in housing associations. Whether you’re directly employed or an external provider, managing the audit contract or a board member, there will be something here for you. In the present economic climate, do we need to go back to basics to concentrate on the fundamental issues of risk and internal audit’s response to it? Assurance is all about protecting our organisations from the unexpected, and one of the best ways of contributing to a successful future might be through reinforcing old values, giving assurance that the key systems underpinning high-risk areas are sound.

We’re already looking forward to welcoming you to the conference.  Click here for full details and booking information.
