Disruptive technologies like big data, artificial intelligence, and blockchain will and, in some case, are already changing how we perform audits. Concerns that employing such technologies will displace auditors are unfounded, however there are clear implications that they will transform the auditor’s role and the make-up of the audit team. This session will explore the impact these technologies will have on the audit and provide an understanding of the skill set that will be required to adapt your audit practice to take advantage of the opportunities they present.

Earl Cole (AuditScope Business and Consulting Services)
"As a previous audit director and CAE with over 30 years experience in the internal audit profession, I appreciated this webinar. The issues and needed understandings presented in The Future of Audit webinar are what is lacking in a majority of current CAEs and Internal Audit Directors who only want all levels of auditors under their charged to just follow and check-off canned steps and scripts. Which means, do not thinking out of the box, raise issues for them to deal with and if necessary additional work and reporting. ."Adam Regnier (nVent)
