The slides displayed for this ppt did not really align with the script the speaker was following. She referenced a significant amount of material she did not share on the slides. In addition, she mentioned balancing T accounts, but never showed, how here entries balanced - expected her audience to assume or add in their head. And seemed to be more a basis 101 on accounting with very little on payroll.

This course was a bit difficult due to lack of previous knowledge and reading through the course materials instead of instructed lead. Overall, the course was very educational.

This course gives some good tips on presentation preparation for those who do not normally present. I felt that the audience was geared more towards senior management than those working in the weeds.

* Content was relevant, but in some instances more attenuated to the core topic of maturing an ERM function. * Disproportionate amount of time on various examples (e.g., FCPA, tax regulation, SEC and gatekeepers, historical/contextual backdrop) and survey results versus the 3 stages themselves (approx. last 15 min.), along with practices, tools and insights.

This course was very interesting and truly will impact my work performance for the better based on its detailed review of the close process.

It seemed a little odd to spend only 10 percent of the class on solutions and not to have a section on examples of how solutions work. I think there was some of this in the rest of the course, but it wasn't explicit.

it was good........................................

This course covered various leadership style, with pros and cons for adopting/applying each style. However, adding to the slides the pictures of leaders ( who may or may not have demonstrated certain leadership style) was a distraction and minimized the course effectiveness. For example, was Princess Diana an inspiration leader? Perhaps not! Was Dr. King a non-authoritarian leader? Absolutely not!!! This course is about organizational leadership. Therefore, perhaps the author should use corporate leaders (past and present) and specific corporate examples to depict each leadership type AND to make the course stronger.

There are no slides for this series that are needed for documentation purposes.

Program materials were relevant and contributed to the achievement of the learning objectives.

Really enjoy how Marc & Paul present together - engaging!

Lot of new information to absorb but was very informative .

This was a good overview of the internal audit function, with all relevant parties and within the department.

The instructor gives me much to think about. There is so much in here that I think many aren't willing to say even though we know it to be true. There are many politics involved in the workplace. It is unfortunate, but reality, and he helps you to work through this unfortunate reality.

Short albeit good review of T&E expenses.

Some more error rectification technique may be included in this course.

Clear and concise - great examples provided. A great course for any experienced auditor.

interesting info

Very comprehensive approach in a condensed session. Attachments and supporting documents were very helpful and a valuable tool to use in applying the concepts. Matt was very energetic and enthusiastic as an instructor.

There were great reminders and refreshers in this course. I have taken a similar course that was an all day and I learned just as much here.

I really enjoyed course. I would like to be able to see the correct answer for exam questions wrong.

I liked that I learned something

I like the course as it fits the non IT auditors. The presenter needs to be more interactive.

Learning more about Risk Base Auditing. What surprised me, is how important RBA to a company. What to look for while i'm auditing.

.

More information on analytics to identify misuse.

Basics

Very practical advice for a new manager

Flow of information

Good overall introduction, however (1) inserts on slides were too small to be readable, and (2) material could have been covered in half the time.

The course is so easy to understand.

Excellent course

Common sense advice. Would prefer more business environment examples versus a lot of personal examples.

Well done. Easy to understand.

Great course!

informative

Clear, well structured course, very informative

Informative. Focused contents on RBIA methodology.

Good concept

I enjoyed the course, but the background noise was somewhat distracting. (clock chiming)

Valuable course for educating auditors and management about the value of RBIA that provides a step by step methodology which can be utilized as a starting place for organizations to begin to establish RBIA.

Good description of the audit and report

Great introduction to RBA.

Was very informative and help me being an Internal Auditor to assess and move ahead with RBA

I learned more than I thought I would.

Test questions were not captured in the presentation materials.

Easy to understand the course
