Ernst & Young Academy of Business is glad to announce the launch of the new preparatory program for the Certified Internal Auditor^® (CIA^®) certification exam in Russian.

CIA^® certification founded by the Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA, USA) is one of the globally recognized certifications for specialists of internal audit and internal control.

The Academy’s preparatory program allows one to prepare well for the CIA^® exam. Intensive instructor-led training sessions concentrate on the most demanding parts of the syllabus as well as the exam-type questions. Tutors go through practical examples and exam questions to fully prepare candidates for the exam. Unique training materials contain the necessary information on the Standards of Internal Audit and practical guidance, provide the theoretical basis for the field examined, and have examples and many tests. Moreover, candidates receive a CD with the mock exam software.

“Our task is first and foremost to teach how to take an exam, because such knowledge frequently determines the outcome. Another task set in the preparatory program  is to structure the knowledge needed to take the exam and understand the typical questions which will most likely be part of the exam,” says Olga Bulatova, Advisory Partner, Director of the Academy of Business in the CIS. 

Galina Maloshenko, Advisory Partner, CIS Business Risk Services Leader, adds: “In the course of over seven years of giving advice to the clients of Ernst & Young in risk management, internal control and internal audit, we observed the need to provide specialists of various companies with knowledge and skills based on the best practice embodied in the International Professional Standards of Internal Audit. Therefore, we are glad to see that many professionals now have the opportunity to undergo training and take the CIA^® exams in Russian. The Ernst & Young Academy of Business, being awarded the highest status of ACCA Platinum Approved Learning Partner, has many years’ experience in preparing people for the ACCA, CFA^® and ICA exams and will prepare clients for the СIA^® exams in the best possible way.”
