The revised International Standard on Auditing (ISA) 315 introduces major changes in the approach to risk identification and assessment. The enhancements will affect the planning section of all audits, and audit firms of all sizes will need to revise their approach to risk assessment. The changes will be effective for audits of financial statements for periods beginning on or after 15 December 2021. The effects of the revisions will be far-reaching and will require firms of all sizes to revise their approach to risk assessments. This course explains how audits can be planned and performed effectively based on the 2022 version of Draftworx
