Welcome to the IIA Chicago West Chapter

The Chicago West Chapter of The Institute of Internal Auditors, founded May 29, 1985, is a professional association of internal auditors involved in promoting professional growth and progress for the practice of internal auditing. Located within the Western Suburbs of Chicago, our activities include supporting the work and initiatives of the international organization, and promoting the IIA Professional Practices Framework.

The Chicago West Chapter has partnered with Northern Illinois University (NIU) over the last few years in promoting the Internal Audit profession. Each year the Chapter provides two scholarships to aspiring NIU students interested in the field of Internal Auditing.
