IIA QAR - External Quality Assessment

More than just demonstrating compliance with the
IIA Standards, a QAR will evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of the Internal Audit Department. It will also help you understand if the Internal Audit Department is meeting the expectations of Executive Management and the Board of Directors. Plus once the baseline has been established, opportunities to take advantage of professional best practices emerge areas such as:

• Internal Audit Staffing
• Internal Audit Department Structure
• Risk-Based Audit Programs
• Broadening Scope of Internal Audit
• Heighten Ethical Standards
• Mitigating Information Technology Risks
• Supporting Governance Structure
• Technology Driven Audit Process
• Resource Center for Company
• Continually Effect Company Improvement
• Constant Communication Improvement

To learn more about External Quality Assessments and how to prepare for QAR Compliance, email Vonya Global or just give us a call. We are eager to help!

What standards do you follow? Most internal audit departments follow The Institute of Internal Auditors’ International Standards For The Professional Practice Of Internal Auditing (www.theiia.org/standards). This is the common international framework for the professional practice of internal auditing.

If you follow the Standards then you are probably aware of Standard 1312… THE QAR.


Adopted on January 1, 2002, the requirement for Internal Audit Departments is that an external QAR must be conducted once every 5 years. The compliance date for the initial QAR was January 1, 2007. This means the second wave of QAR compliance is upon us. Will you be in compliance?

There are many options for your external QAR, but we hope you consider Vonya Global. Our team of Accredited Quality Assessors will streamline your compliance process using the IIA Standards and Professional Best Practices. We understand the nature of the QAR and its relative importance for you. With the team from Vonya Global, you will get the value you need. Contact Vonya Global Today!
