This webinar focuses on how auditors can practically use AI during audit engagements to improve efficiency, enhance documentation quality, and strengthen audit procedures while maintaining professional scepticism.
This practical 7-part webinar series is designed specifically for accountants and auditors who want to use artificial intelligence effectively, responsibly, and efficiently in practice. The focus is on practical AI implementation, automation opportunities, audit applications, productivity improvements, risk management, and real-world examples relevant to accounting and auditing firms.
The series explores how AI can improve workflows, reduce administrative burden, strengthen audit procedures, assist with analysis, and enhance advisory services — while also addressing risks such as inaccurate outputs, confidentiality breaches, overreliance, cyber threats, and poor-quality AI usage. A limited but practical ethics component is included throughout the series to ensure responsible and defensible use of AI in professional environments.
Participants will explore practical AI use cases applicable to audit planning, risk assessments, working paper preparation, analytical procedures, audit evidence evaluation, and audit reporting. The session also discusses where AI should not be relied upon without proper review.
