Protiviti Webinar Explores Results of Internal Audit Capabilities and Needs
Survey and Key Trends

MENLO PARK, Calif., June 1 /PRNewswire/ -- 

    WHAT: Internal auditors play a critical role in monitoring organization-
          wide systems, processes and controls for companies that can't afford
          the slightest breakdowns, losses or inefficiencies. In today's
          quickly evolving business environment, internal auditors are asked
          to stretch beyond the traditional job description to acquire skills
          and knowledge that their peers 10 years ago wouldn't have given a
          second thought.

          Join experts from Protiviti (www.protiviti.com), a global consulting
          and internal audit firm, and a special guest presenter from Raytheon
          for a webinar designed to help chief audit executives (CAEs),
          internal audit directors, managers and staff rise to the challenges
          of this new environment - Internal Audit Capabilities and
          Needs:  Where do you rate? During the one-hour session, Protiviti's
          team will share key findings from its third Internal Audit
          Capabilities and Needs Survey and highlight trends that have emerged
          since the survey's inception in 2006. Survey results offer feedback
          from internal audit professionals in all phases of their careers,
          exploring issues in three categories:  general technical knowledge,
          audit process knowledge, and personal skills and capabilities.
