Evaluation
The course will be assessed using multiple choice questions, in-class profects and case studies during class. A certain portion of the material needs to be tested in multiple choice format because certain terminology, concepts and audit process steps are straightforward. Some topics, however, are not quite as straightfowrd so in-class projects and discussions give students opportunites to explauin their reasoning
