The UTD-IIA Student Chapter is conducting a survey of all
Internal Audit shops in the DFW area. The 15 minute survey addresses
issues faced by the Internal Audit field today and how they relate
to recent college graduates. The survey includes such topics as
staffing, recruiting, continuing education and CIA exam preparation.
In order to achieve the most accurate results, we need to have as
many participants as possible. Therefore, the UTD-IIA Student
Chapter needs to contact at least one person in each Internal Audit
shop in the DFW area.
If you would like to participate in the survey, please contact
the survey coordinator, David Gibbs at
utd_iia_pres@comcast.net.
David will then have a student from UTD’s Endorsed Internal Audit
Program contact you.
The results of the survey will be presented at an upcoming Dallas
IIA meeting.
Summer is the time when IIA International presents awards to
organizations and members. The Dallas Chapter and a Chapter Member
were honored with two awards this year:
We accomplished a lot in the first two years of the program, but
we have a lot more to do. After a refreshing summer at the
International Conference in Chicago and a new Endorsed Internal
Audit Symposium introduced to over 75 educators, students and
practitioners, I had the opportunity to co-chair the event and also
talk to a lot of practitioners during the conference. There was an
overwhelming response to support Internal Audit education and
recruiting new staff. I really appreciate the support of the Dallas
Chapter and the continued efforts to be on the forefront of audit
education and research. The program at UTD could not have grown at
the rate it has without all of your support.
We are planning for an even bigger event for Internal Audit
educators during the International Conference in Houston. Plan to
register early if are attending next year as many individuals could
not attend this year’s conference as registration closed out two
months in advance.
We have three major events planned with the Dallas Chapter at UTD
this fall. The first is the August 4 Chapter meeting. The next is
the first seminar of the year, October 21, which will be on “Fraud:
Follow the Money.” The event is sponsored by the Chapter and the
Criminal Investigation Unit of the Internal Revenue Service. We have
seven speakers lined up on the topic of fraud investigation with a
special guest speaker on Identity Fraud for lunch. This will be a
great program to earn seven hours of CPE and help support the
program at UTD. We will close out the year on December 8 with
another Chapter meeting with a social event.
If you are taking the CIA exam you will be spending even more
time at UTD as the review session in September and then exam in
November is at UTD. All these events are at the School of
Management.
From the numbers of early registration the Internal Audit Class
this fall, we should have well over 50 students in the class and
over 100 in the Student Chapter. Recruiting for full time and
internships will begin this September. If you are interested in
recruiting on campus or assisting the programs in any way, please contact
Mark Salamasick at 972-883-4729 or
mark.salamasick@utdallas.edu. Also, we are always looking for
additional site tours of Internal Audit groups. Please contact Mark
for scheduling a student tour of your site.
It's time again for the survey to determine which IIA Dallas
Chapter members have submitted articles or spoken since May. Each
speaking engagement on internal auditing that a Dallas Chapter member
completes will earn the Chapter 1 credit per CPD hour. Each full
article, Roundtable article, Fraud Finding, etc. submitted that meets
basic editorial guidelines will earn 5 credits. For each full article
published 20 credits are earned. Each internal audit related article
published in any other trade or professional journal that is authored
by a chapter member is 5 credits.
The course will be taught from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM each day, according
to the following schedule:
(Please note if you are a CBA, CGAP, CCSA, CISA, CMA, CPA, CTA, CUCE,
CRCM or CTCP you are eligible to receive professional recognition credit
for Part IV of the CIA Exam.)
If you choose not to pay on-line with a credit card, the registration
fee must be received by Toni Messer at the address below in order to
reserve your place at the course. Checks should be made payable to the
Dallas IIA:
