Message from the Chapter Chair
The ACT Chapter Council’s role is to provide a local forum for ACT members of the Institute of Internal Auditors – Australia (IIA-Australia). We are the primary mechanism for providing ACT members the opportunity to meet as a group and for this group to provide input into the IIA-Australia Board and National Office on member needs and issues.
As the council in the heart of the nation’s capital, our councillors come from both private and government organisations. We work to promote the profession, provide member services that matter to you, and arrange events and education for ACT members. We organise monthly member meetings on relevant topics, manage a mentoring program, organise events for our Young IIA cohort, contribute to the Commonwealth CAE Forum and APS Internal Audit Community of Practice, and help organise the Public Sector Internal Audit Conference held in Canberra each year.
As Chair of the ACT Chapter Council, I encourage you to make the most of your IIA-Australia membership, and engage with the profession through participation in its many activities. Council members are dedicated to serving ACT members so please come and talk to us when you see us – we want to hear from you. Our council meetings have an open door policy for members, so if you are interested in learning more about the council, helping informally, or joining the council we look forward to hearing from you.
Suggestions for Member Meeting Topics
The Chapter Council is more than happy to take your suggestions on possible Member Meeting topics and/or speakers. They are your meetings after all! Please email us with any suggestions.
Mentoring Program
The IIA-Australia ACT Chapter Council Mentoring Program is committed to providing valuable advice and insights to internal auditors at all stages of their careers. We match mentees with suitable mentors and support them in their relationship during the term of the program. If you would like to be mentored and/or provide mentoring - further information and details are available in the Charter.
