Location    Embassy Suites, LaVista, NE
Course Time 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Peer reviews and AICPA Professional Ethics Division Investigations have found that substandard A-133 audits are prevalent. Now the AICPA and government bodies are addressing issues with changes in professional literature. This course addresses the new SAS No. 117 on Compliance Auditing that addresses many of them and changes in recordkeeping, internal control and reporting for entities expending funds awarded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). With nearly $3 billion awarded since 2009, these requirements will affect many organizations. The course will also address how the changes impact audit procedures to be performed and the impact that SAS No. 115 will have on the report on internal control over financial reporting and internal control over compliance and the AICPA's new practice aids on internal control and the Schedule of Federal Awards (SEFA). This course will help avoid recurring common failures in audits under Government Auditing Standards and OMB Circular A-133 and provide the latest 2007 Yellow Book changes, as well as changes to the reports on internal controls over financial reporting (GAS) and internal control over compliance (A-133).
