We have observed over the years the gradual transition of the traditional audit to systems audit. Organizations are beginning to seek for individuals with practical knowledge of Information systems Audit and are ready to pay heavily to hire them. Individuals have passed the CISA examination are still deficient in the practical application of the certification.

It is in view of this that Rhythex have come up  to the challenge of documenting and organizing laboratory based practical system audit training for CISAsand non CISAs.

We will concentrate on how to determine risk in critical areas of the IT environment and how to use SQL and ACL to interrogate data for analysis and to carry out income assurance review.
 
At the end of this seminar you will have a thorough practical understanding of IT Audit and control best practices that will ensure value-added performance on your job in your organization.
