Abstract This 2-day course is designed to provide participants with the practical skills required in auditing and controlling of IT projects. Whether IT projects are developed in-house or are co-sourced with third-party providers, there are lots of challenges that must be considered carefully to ensure success. Undesirable results can be caused by such issues as poorly defined project scope and objectives, lack of top management support, insufficient user involvement, incorrect or inappropriate technology choices, or lack of knowledge about changing technologies. Insufficient attention to these and other IT challenges will result in wasted money and resources, loss of trust, and reputational damage — all of which are huge risks and none of which is acceptable. Using ready-to-use tools and templates, you will learn how to audit and control IT projects in a practical and efficient manner. You will also be introduced to the relevant COBIT objectives for IT projects, and how to assess whether those objectives have been achieved. Our multi-awards-winning instructor will guide you through these tools and templates step-by-step, and also share his experiences with you, using real-life examples. When you have finished this workshop, you will be ready for any future IT projects in your organisation. Who should attend: The workshop is designed for all levels of staff in an Internal Audit Function or IT Organization, particularly those involved in IT Projects. Ideal for IT Security Professionals; IT Auditors; External Auditors; Business Analysts; Systems Analysts; Control and Compliance Professionals; and IT Management.
