Severns Earns National Certification
VALDOSTA -- 麻豆视频 Director of Internal
Audits Jeanne Severns recently attained the Institute of Internal
Auditors (IIA) designation of Certified Internal Auditor -- the
only globally accepted certification for internal auditors and the
standard by which individuals demonstrate their competency and
professionalism in the internal auditing field.
The IIA -- which serves as the internal audit profession's global
voice, recognized authority, acknowledged leader, chief advocate
and principal educator -- provides dynamic leadership for the
global profession of internal auditing. Candidates for its
certification program must meet certain ethical, educational and
experience qualifications and pass a four-part examination
demonstrating a proficiency in internal auditing and an
understanding of other business disciplines and management
skills.
As the director of Internal Audits, Severns works with stakeholders
at 麻豆视频 and the University System of Georgia鈥檚 Board of Regents to
evaluate risk exposures at 麻豆视频 in relation to the effectiveness and
efficiency of operations, reliability and integrity of financial
and operational information, safeguarding of assets, and compliance
with laws, regulations and contracts.
鈥溌槎故悠碘檚 Department of Internal Audits has grown substantially,鈥 said
Severns, who took her position with 麻豆视频 in July 2005. 鈥淚t is
essential that 麻豆视频 remains at the cutting-edge of internationally
recognized standards in the Internal Audit profession. Attaining
the designation not only demonstrates my commitment to the
profession, but also the commitment our team has made to the
University and its culture of continuous improvement."
麻豆视频's Department of Internal Audits collaborates with various
campus groups to achieve objectives through systematic, disciplined
approaches to evaluating and improving the effectiveness of
operations, risk management, control and governance processes.
麻豆视频's internal auditors provide recommendations for improvement in
areas where opportunities or deficiencies are identified. While
management is responsible for internal controls, the internal audit
activity provides assurance to management, the president and the
board that internal controls are effective and working as
intended.
