April 2006
The President’s Letter
Hello,
The April meeting is a special meeting for us. We are honored that the IIA
President, Dave Richards, will be joining us to speak at our luncheon. It has
taken us almost 2 years to get this scheduled. Can you imagine how busy he is
with all the attention to the internal audit profession in the last couple
years? Come hear his perspective on the profession and our association.
The April meeting is also our special student event. A big welcome to local
university students!! Finally, we will try to honor the new CIA’s at the April
meeting if we get the certificates in time from IIA. Otherwise, look for this in
May.
With all of this activity, we will be at capacity crowd again, which brings
me to discuss a couple of administrative items. First, we have to consider
changing locations. Please help us make this critical decision by completing the
member survey at
http://dallasiia.org/Member_Survey_06.htm. See more information below in the
newsletter.
Second, we have a portion of people each luncheon that are bypassing the
registration tables and going straight into lunch. Even if you prepay on the
internet, we still need to put a checkmark by your name for both CPE purposes
and to reconcile the CityPlace bill. Also, the chapter is loosing some revenue
for those not prepaid. One person can check in a group reservation, but we need
that person to have an accurate count of who is attending for their
organization.
I believe the registration issue is happening due to the large numbers
attending the meetings and the narrow hallway we have as a registration area. If
you enter the lunch through the second hallway to avoid the crowds, please come
back to the registration tables before 12 noon to check in. Please help us to do
this properly. We want to avoid taking other measures that will only slow down
the process even more.
In closing, always keep an eye on our Web site. We try to update it regularly
with new information. We may have other area associations’ seminars listed that
would interest you. Also, we are trying something new, if we receive permission
from our speakers, we will be putting the presentations on an easy to find page
on our Web site. See
http://www.dallasiia.org/Handouts.htm.
Hope you enjoy the April Meeting!

CIA Exam Review Course

until September 8-11, 2006, for the November 2006 exam. Registration

 IIA Research Foundation
The Research Foundation has a number of reports that are
scheduled to be released in 2006. A brief summary of these include:
- Internal Audit Role during Mergers & Acquisitions: The
European Union Experience - Mergers and acquisitions
represent a dynamic process of corporate culture and strategy.
This study will try to analyze the present level of involvement
of internal audit function during the M&A activity and compare
it with the preferred and ideal level of involvement.
- Taking It to the Next Level: Sarbanes-Oxley and COSO ERM
- Objectives of this report are to help readers understand
how Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) compliance can be expanded into
Enterprise Risk Management (ERM), how the COSO internal control
and ERM frameworks can be integrated and used in this
transformation, and the role internal audit can play in this
transformation. It will include case studies of leading
organizations who have gone through or are going through this
transformation and provide concrete examples of techniques that
they can use as models to develop or enhance their own
practices.
- Behavioral Aspects of Internal Auditing - This
project will contribute to the current understanding of
managerial competence, interpersonal communications, and other
general behavioral “aspects” in the internal auditing
profession. Auditor-client interactions occur in a social
context, and consist of verbal and nonverbal as well as oral and
written communications. The monograph will discuss extant
literature to better understand desirable behavioral
characteristics of internal auditors, identifying behaviors that
result in enhanced audit relationships.
- The Internal Audit Function’s Corporate Governance
Relationships - The purpose of the research is to provide
current evidence for understanding the critical and complex role
of the internal audit function (IAF) in the corporate governance
processes of U.S. public companies. With the internal audit
function now being viewed as one of the four cornerstones of
corporate governance, there is a need for increased
understanding about how the IAF interacts with the audit
committee, management, and the external auditors to achieve
quality corporate governance.
