About IIA

Established in 1941, The Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) is an international professional association

with global headquarters in Altamonte Springs, Florida, USA. The IIA is the internal audit profession's global voice, recognized authority, acknowledged leader, chief advocate, and principal educator. Generally, members work in internal auditing, risk management, governance, internal control, information technology audit, education, and security. Globally, The IIA has more than 180,000 members.

The IIA established and administers the Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) credential. As The IIA’s premier designation for more than 40 years, the CIA sets the standard for excellence within the profession. The

CIA journey begins with a focus on The IIA’s International Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing (Standards) and aspects of mandatory guidance under the IPPF. The journey continues with a focus on managing an internal audit project and culminates with concepts related to internal control, risk, governance, and technology.
