Institute of Audit

Professional Education in Internal and External Auditing

The Institute of Audit at International Academy of Sciences LLC is a specialized academic and certification unit dedicated to preparing professionals for success in both internal and external auditing. Our goal is to equip auditors with the skills, knowledge, and global credentials necessary to meet international standards in finance, risk, and compliance.

We offer a full range of programs in:

• Internal audit and operational control

• External (independent) audit and assurance services

• Financial statement audit under IFRS and ISA

• Risk management and governance

• Compliance and regulatory audit

Internal vs External Audit: A Dual Approach

Our curriculum is designed to help learners understand and operate effectively in both roles:

• Internal Auditors focus on evaluating risk and improving internal controls within an organization.

We help bridge both specializations through integrated training, case studies, and dual certification pathways.
