Are YOU Ready to become a Certified International Auditor?
What are Some of the Benefits of being a CIA?
Professionals with the CIA certification have an emphasized advantage in the job market, and usually have higher payment and increased job security. According to IIA reports, a CIA in the United States earns approximately $38,000 more per year than auditors who do not have the IIA certification. The demand for internal auditors is also growing due to many organizations placing a higher emphasis on controls and needing experts in corporate governance, risk management, and internal control. An increase in governmental regulations and reporting requirements internationally, and shareholders’ concern over corporate governance are also fuelling an increased demand for Certified Internal Auditors (CIA®).
Over the course of their career, a CIA is also more likely to get promoted to positions such as audit manager, risk manager, and senior internal auditor than non-IIA certified colleagues to any international organization. Individuals with the CIA certification can even move up to executive roles such as chief financial officer, finance director, chief audit executive, or vice president of internal audit. These are ONLY SOME of the few reasons that you may consider before deciding to earn the Certified Internal Auditor® (CIA®) designation.
How Can You become a CIA from The Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA)?
To be eligible to take the CIA exams, a candidate should have a bachelor’s degree in any field. In order to earn the CIA certification, a candidate must also have at least two years of internal audit experience. It may still be possible to be certified without a bachelor’s degree, but it requires up to seven years of work experience instead. If you are in this situation, speak directly with The IIA to make sure that you meet their requirements. Candidates must also submit a Character Reference Form filled out by a supervisor or co-worker who also holds a CIA, CCSA, CGAP, CFSA, or a CRMA certification.
Individuals who receive the CIA certification are required to abide by The IIA Code of Ethics.
If you are ELIGIBLE to take the CIA exams, there are only THREE (3) steps that are keeping you away from earning the CIA designation!
