Global Live Online(GLO) Class For Advanced Audit and Assurance (AAA)

How to approach the Advanced Audit and Assurance (AAA) exam

AAA has a wide ranging syllabus, which includes the audit of historical financial information (‘audit’) and other specific assignments. It builds
on the Audit and Assurance and Strategic Business Reporting (SBR) exams, by introducing more complex topics and covering the basic topics
from different angles to reflect the challenges auditors will face in their professional life. Current issues, exposure drafts and developments in audit
including emerging technologies also feature. Questions are set in the context of single entities, groups and private or public sector organisations.
To prepare for AAA effectively you need to understand the nature of the exam and what you will be asked to do.
