Certified Chief Audit Executive® (cCAE™)

Being a Chief Audit Executive (CAE), the person that leads an internal audit activity in an organization, is one of the toughest jobs. Would it be much easier if you had the step-by-step help for exactly how to set up and run a successful internal audit group? Would it be helpful to gain the knowledge, resources and tricks-of-the-trade most Chief Audit Executives never learn?

Of course it would!

You have been in internal audit for many years, and you are very good at the "audit" part of CAE, but what about the "chief" and "executive" part of the job?

You already know the things that all good internal auditors are trained to know (you are strong on the "A" of CAE). Things like the applying audit standards, formalizing project-based risk assessments, establishing project scope, documenting work papers, writing findings, drafting and issuing reports, and so on. Extremely valuable skills and experiences for any marketable internal audit professional.

You also see, and generally understand, what Chief Audit Executives are supposed to do, but how much EXECUTIVE PRESENCE do you have? How much CONFIDENCE do you have? The fact that you are reading this means you'd probably like some help with the "E" of CAE, right?

You not only need to be a good audit leader when you are the CAE ... you need to be CONFIDENT and act like an EXECUTIVE too!

Would it be helpful to learn about and demonstrate proficiency in challenging topics like:

• Preparing for an Audit Committee meeting
• Managing the dual reporting relationship: the tricky balance between keep executive management and the board happy.
• Navigating organizational politics with your peers
• Establishing, Building, and Sustaining C-suite peer relationships
• Maximizing the use of Co-sourcing with limited dollars
• Maintaining a Dynamic Risk Assessment
• Forging a relationship with the Audit Committee Chair
• Being a Courageous Communicator
• Leading a dynamic staff of professionals
• Handling an Audit Committee Executive Session
