compliance, so auditors may not have had consistent opportunities to learn and apply critical

thinking concepts to planning and executing an audit, to being alert to negative indicators

during an audit, and to judging the significance of issues and how to report them. Other audi-

of critical thinking, professional skepticism, and professional judgment, and apply these

concepts to various stages of an audit – from preparation and planning, to assessing and

testing, to communicating and reporting.

This course is taught by Deloitte professionals with practical experience. The facilitators

will use a variety of learning methods, including lecture, presentation, class discussion,

interactive exercises, video scenarios, and participant teach-backs to enhance the learning

experience and provide a variety of opportunities for the participants to practice applying and
