We help our organizations accomplish their objectives by bringing a systematic, disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management, control, and governance processes.

If you are like me, you’re probably anxiously awaiting warmer weather and flowers in bloom. Spring can’t come soon enough. As our chapter year progresses, we continue to provide high-quality, affordable CPE opportunities.
Last month Tressa Whittington of the FBI led a very interesting case study presentation on a multi-million-dollar crop insurance fraud scheme involving dozens of farmers in Central Kentucky. It was a great event. Thank you to Tressa for sharing her time and knowledge with us!
This month we are excited to welcome Steve and Matthew of Protiviti to the podium. They will be sharing their knowledge with us through their presentation, “Internal Audit’s Role in ESG / Sustainability.” Please join us on March 11th either in-person or virtually. Those that attend in-person will enjoy lunch and have an opportunity to network with local IA professionals and our wonderful presenters.
If you are looking for a way to get more involved with our chapter, please reach out to IIA Louisville.
