Greetings Everyone!
Our first meeting of the chapter year was great. Kate Kousser, from Intellibridge, provided a list of valuable tools: Risk Assessment Model, Data Mining, Comparative Case Studies, Root Cause
Analysis and several others as a means in approaching Performance Auditing. Your chapter leadership has planned an entire day on Data Analysis & ACL in November.
On October 6, 2011, we will support Cal State San Bernardino and Cal Poly Pomona at their Meet the Firms Student Events, from 6 – 9 p.m. One of our goals each year is to promote the auditing profession. What better way than to speak to soon-to-be graduates on the value our profession can and what it has to offer? In the spring, we plan to host a student night at a local eatery and present scholarships to students. Please plan to support this event in March/April 2012 timeframe.
Mark your Calendars for the final week in May or first week in June as specific dates have yet to be confirmed. Our IIA North American West Region District 4 will host an Annual Educational Conference. Our district was successful in hosting the Regional Conference last September in Anaheim at the Disneyland Resort. This event will feature a variety of topics and speakers that will appeal to auditors from all types of industries and organizations.
I hope to meet you in one of our upcoming events.
Regards,
Carmen McGowin-Paul IIA Inland Empire Chapter President #257

Standards are principle-focused and provide a framework for performing and promoting internal auditing.
The Standards are mandatory requirements consisting of:
Statements of basic requirements for the professional practice of internal auditing and for evaluating
the effectiveness of its performance. The requirements are internationally applicable at organizational
and individual levels.
Interpretations, which clarify terms or concepts within the statements.
It is necessary to consider both the statements and their interpretations to understand and apply the Standards correctly. The Standards employ
terms that have been given specific meanings as noted in the Glossary, which is also part of the Standards.
Each month, we’ll list a section from the Standards to help readers brush up on mandatory requirements for internal auditors.
2320 – Analysis and Evaluation
Internal auditors must base conclusions and engagement results on appropriate analyses and evaluations.
2330 – Documenting Information
Internal auditors must document relevant information to support the conclusions and engagement results.
2330.A1 – The chief audit executive must control access to engagement records. The chief audit executive must obtain the approval
of senior management and/or legal counsel prior to releasing such records to external parties, as appropriate.
2330.A2 – The chief audit executive must develop retention requirements for engagement records, regardless of the medium in
which each record is stored. These retention requirements must be consistent with the organization’s guidelines and any pertinent
regulatory or other requirements.
2330.C1 – The chief audit executive must develop policies governing the custody and retention of consulting engagement records,
as well as their release to internal and external parties. These policies must be consistent with the organization’s guidelines and any
pertinent regulatory or other requirements.
2340 – Engagement Supervision
Engagements must be properly supervised to ensure objectives are achieved, quality is assured, and staff is developed.

career, is by expecting more from yourself and then achieving it.

Just for fun…each month,
we’ll feature an image
showcasing a beautiful,
strange, or otherwise
noteworthy location from
the area many of us live
and work. Play along and
test your knowledge of the
sights of the Inland Empire,
to see if you can guess…
SEPTEMBER 2011 ANSWER: Fashioned to resemble conical
tents (“Tipi” in Lakota) used by some Native Americans in the Great Plains, this iconic
Route 66 landmark is one of three surviving out of seven original Wigwam Villages
built between 1936 through the 1950s. The Wigwam Motel on the city
boundary between Rialto and San Bernardino, California consists of 19
wigwam guest rooms, a swimming pool, and 35 palm trees surrounding the entire
property. For more information, visit http://www.wigwammotel.com/
