At the recent 2024 Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) Canada National Conference, Dr. Carl Canlas, Assistant Professor in the Department of Information Systems & Technology, presented on his research on the growing trend of Agile Auditing among IT audit leaders. While many have adopted or experimented with this methodology, the effectiveness of such transformations remains a topic of interest. The presentation, held at the Quebec City Convention Centre, delved into the challenges and benefits of transitioning from traditional audit methodologies to Agile Auditing, which integrates Lean, Scrum, and Kanban principles. One of the standout points was the emphasis on leading an Agile transformation with a focus on Artificial Intelligence (AI). This approach not only aims to enhance organizational efficiency but also to help teams navigate the complexities of today’s rapidly evolving environment. The journey of integrating AI into Agile Auditing is seen as a crucial step for organizations looking to thrive amidst constant change. IIA CNC24 - Canada's Premier Internal Audit Conference is the prime destination for learning and discussing cutting-edge practices, emerging tools and industry trends.

With over 1,000 attendees at last year's conference in Ottawa, Canada’s leading internal audit gathering provides the best opportunity to re-establish connections with peers, broaden your professional network and ignite your enthusiasm for the profession.
