INTOSAI Digital University - Nurturing Auditors

Today, more than ever, the international audit community needs to constantly enhance capacities in order to be in line with key global trends. The Moscow Declaration, adopted at the INCOSAI 2019, outlines the importance of nurturing auditors of the future and fostering an experimental mindset. To achieve these goals, SAI Russia as the Chair of INTOSAI, launched the INTOSAI Digital University (U-INTOSAI). The INTOSAI Digital University is an open online educational platform, available for the whole INTOSAI community without any limitations. It is designed to provide digital space for the knowledge and best practices sharing, serving as an integrating tool for INTOSAI educational activities to create synergy.

The TFSP is chaired by the United States Government Accountability Office (GAO) and composed of the Secretary General; Goal Chairs and Vice-Chairs; Policy, Finance and Administration Committee members; INTOSAI and Regional Organization Chairs and Secretariats; INTOSAI Development Initiative (IDI); INTOSAI Journal; and the Forum of INTOSAI Professional Pronouncements (FIPP) Chair and Vice-Chair.

U-INTOSAI is an aggregator, aims to:

unite and systemize on one platform information about existing and future educational activities of the entire INTOSAI community without competition with current educational projects,
promote the principles of the INCOSAI final documents,
explain the value of audit for the professional community and citizens.

U-INTOSAI was launched in April 2021 and currently provides courses and podcasts on a broad variety of themes topical for the audit community: SDGs, IT and data analytics, strategic audit, ecological audit, performance audit, public administration, management and soft-skills, etc. Several courses are introduced in the partnership with Google.

The platform is user-friendly for both “students” and content authors. In particular, no specific IT skills are required to download courses. They can be either uploaded to the platform facilities or a special landing page can be created with an active link to the course located at another LMS.

U-INTOSAI is available in English, French, German, Russian and Spanish. Portuguese and Arabic versions are under development. It is meant to provide a multilingual communication environment for all members of the international audit community and follow the principles of openness and inclusiveness.
