Overview

Through the peer review program, the AICPA has identified risk assessment as a major area of noncompliance for audits.

In order to prepare for this, Jeff Sailor has created this focused webcast to cover all the major aspects of risk assessment. Jeff will bring his truly unique presentation style to cover everything you need to know, including proper documentation. In addition, he will include his signature video parodies, which are designed to keep you awake and reinforce the material.
