Virtual / Remote Audit Training (1-Day)

Course ID VRAT
Format Live Virtual


This course is focused on the tools, techniques, processes, practices and pitfalls of conducting internal audits remotely using virtual tools. Note that this training does not include full internal auditor training; full internal auditor training is a prerequisite for this class and for the standard/system to be audited.

Virtual/remote audits are a valid tool as part of a larger internal audit program, and while they do not typically save time on the actual audit, they can save organizational travel time and cost due to their flexibility. 

ASQ virtual courses provide electronic access to course materials for 30 days beginning five days before the first day of your course. Extensions and/or refunds cannot be issued if course materials have been accessed. Chrome and Edge browsers are recommended – Internet Explorer is not supported.

WebEx – Virtual Course: Advance Preparation and Student Information

Join a Test Session

We strongly suggest that you join a WebEx test session in advance of your scheduled virtual training, using your preferred web browser. This can help prevent problems launching content the day your training begins.

If you do not have administrative privileges on the SAME computer you will be using the day of your training (i.e., your workstation within your organization) you may need the assistance of your local IT/IS help desk staff for the platform to engage correctly.

To join a test session (meeting), click here and enter your name and email address to join. If successful, you will see a screen that says "Congratulations! Your system is now set up properly ..."

Deactivate Pop-up Blockers

You should deactivate any pop-up blockers, spam filters, and company firewalls that could prevent the WebEx client platform or web-based course from working properly. Third-party toolbars such as Bing, Yahoo, and Google should also be disabled due to their own pop-up blocking capabilities.
