AGA, in conjunction with the National Association of State Auditors, Comptrollers and Treasurers and the Association of Local Government Auditors is pleased to announce a new and increasingly important topic to our audio conference schedule—management’s role in performing risk assessments and establishing good internal controls.
Proper internal control systems are imperative in any organization. Management is responsible for ensuring the internal control system is established, functioning and properly monitored. This session covers the components and objectives of internal control and takes a serious look at performing a detailed management’s assessment of internal control and risk. The program will also cover the Top 10 internal control failures as identified by the presenter.
To share his practical experience in auditing and academic research on internal controls and fraud is William A. Morehead, Ph.D., CGFM, CPA, chair of Accountancy, CIS and Finance, Delta State University, AGA Immediate Past National President, AGA Past National Treasurer and member of AGA’s National Executive Committee.
Please join us for two hours of lively discussion about this important and timely topic. In addition to the speaker’s commentary, about 20 minutes will be set aside so participants can ask the speaker questions and share their own experiences.
