| Sarbanes –
Oxley Act and IT Audit – 3 day workshop |
|
The Sarbanes-Oxley
Act (or SOX as it is often referred to) has been
described as the “most broad-sweeping legislation”
since the Securities Act of the 1930s. Enacted by
President Bush in 2002 in response to such corporate
accounting scandals as Enron and WorldCom, the Act
is transforming business in corporate America and
around the world.
The comprehensive 3-day Sarbanes-Oxley Intensive
Camp is an opportunity for you to experience virtually
every important element of SOX and how it applies
to your job, your career, your company and your
industry. This is the most thorough SOX training
program in the world and, through a series of simulation
workshop exercises, it is designed to address the
unique needs of finance, accounting, IT, legal and
audit professionals alike. |
