Artificial intelligence is the topic the entire accounting industry can't get enough of, with it likely to impact every aspect of the profession. On this insightful episode of the Accountants Daily Insider, ISACA director of event content development, Paul Phillips, joins all the way from the US to share professional expertise and advice about how ISACA is revolutionising the audit profession alongside AI.

More Australian auditors can now pursue the world's first and only audit-specific artificial intelligence certification, with ISACA expanding eligibility for its ISACA Advanced in AI Audit (AAIA) certification to include CPAs and FCPAs from CPA Australia.

Built on ISACA's trusted expertise in IT audit and the rigorous standards behind these renowned credentials, AAIA validates expertise in conducting AI-focused audits, addressing AI integration challenges and enhancing audit processes through AI-driven insights. The credential covers the key domains of AI governance and risk, AI operations, and AI auditing tools and techniques.

Phillips shares this and more in the latest episode of The Accountants Daily Insider. Tune in!
