On behalf of the Officers and Board of Governors, we hope
that you all are staying safe and healthy during this unprecedented time. This
virus has caused major changes in our daily lives and has sent shockwaves
through our business environment that are requiring us to adapt and overcome
many challenges that we never thought we would see here in the United States.
Internal Audit will play a key role in ensuring business continuity, in
ensuring internal controls are effective to keep our operations moving forward
until the crisis is over, and with helping our organizations with getting back
to normal.
The current events are also causing disruptions and
challenges to the chapter, but we are adapting to keep you safe and to continue
to serve you. Therefore, we are postponing the 11th Annual Conference
and will be moving all remaining chapter events for the chapter year to a
virtual setting. We are currently working with professional development
providers to offer convenient and affordable virtual training. More information
on the available CPE opportunities will be sent in the coming weeks.
Make sure that you monitor your email for future virtual
events and to follow us on LinkedIn and Facebook to stay up-to-date on Chapter
news and to connect with your fellow members.
Thank you for your support, and we hope that everyone
continues to take the advice of our local, state, and federal leaders to stay
safe and to get through this current crisis.
