Mastering the Core Skills of Effective Audit and Risk Committees - July 2026

Equip yourself with the essential knowledge, practical skills, and understanding necessary to effectively execute your oversight responsibilities as a member of the Audit and Risk committee.

WHY TAKE THIS COURSE?

An effective Audit and Risk Committee is an essential part of an effective Board. It is fundamental that the Audit and Risk Committee acts as an oversight sub-committee of the Board, reflective of its constitution, considering and challenging, and not itself performing relevant processes.

The Audit and Risk Committee comes under close scrutiny, especially in the context of corporate governance reforms and corporate failures, and expectations of its role are now much higher. The activities of the Committee are also much broader incorporating areas such as whistleblowing, internal investigations and interacting and overseeing internal audit and other related assurance work.

Demystify what the Audit and Risk Committee does with this essential training to ensure you are a valued and effective member of the Committee.
