Auditing and Taxation Handbook
Auditing
The Department consists of well qualified staff members, including Chartered Accountants. The Department is in constant touch with the professional bodies, and its members, and industry at large. The BTech: Internal Auditing degree plus practical experience allows students to write the Certified Internal Auditors Examinations (CIA), a Programme Qualification.
Taxation
This is an internationally respected business qualification. 70% of C.I.S. members hold executive positions in the business world. The qualification leads the way in corporate governance and members are more in demand since the publication of the King Report and the likelihood of mandatory company secretary legislation. The status of members in the accounting field will be further enhanced by the changes of the Accounting Profession Act.
The Chartered Secretary is the person who holds the central business management post in today’s company. He/she has the responsibility for tasks ranging from accounts to economics, research and planning to finance, from sales to computerisation to personnel management and corporate governance.
