Auditing Professionals
The best thing I ever did in getting started with SOX is to attend the SOX training offered by the SOX Institute! I was impressed with highly qualified and experienced teaching crew with an outstanding ability to translate and communicate their knowledge to the students in the class. The reading material, class presentation, and training tools were very well integrated. These were two most enjoyable learning days for me! The SOX Institute offers a professional and friendly environment. At the end of the training, I came out with not only knowledge, but practical experience, and full understanding of SOX, implementation including documentation and testing. I am happy to share that I am now working in the area of SOX implementation.
