Higher education institutions face increasing regulatory complexities, rising stakeholder expectations, and need agile risk management.

For internal audit functions, this translates into greater demands for:

  • Specialization
  • Scalability
  • Responsiveness 

In our webcast, Strategic Co-Sourcing of Internal Audits in Higher Education, we’ll explore how co-sourcing and outsourcing internal audit functions can address these challenges. We’ll examine the strategic benefits of external expertise and resources: such as  objectivity, access to specialized skills, and cost efficiencies.

Learn more about how co-sourcing and outsourcing can: 

  • Strengthen governance
  • Improve risk management
  • Help internal audit departments deliver more value

Gain insight into key decision-making factors, such as when to co-source versus fully outsource, and how to structure these partnerships to align with institutional goals.
