Compliance and Audit Explained

If your institution receives Federal funding, an audit is never far behind.

Our panel of Registrars and staff will share some compliance and audit insight and strategies for getting through a compliance audit, lessons learned, and addressing any audit findings. A former internal auditor will also pull back the curtain to shed some light on what an auditee may never otherwise understand about the inner workings of your audit.

The discussion will also address where to locate compliance resources, conducting your own Quality Control reviews, and actions we can do today in order to be more confident and prepared for a future audit.
