with review questions.
Control Self-Assessment (CSA) is an alternative to the typical internal audit. Instead of conducting audits via tests and observations, the auditor facilitates a process whereby the managers and employees of a business function perform an examination of the function’s own business processes.
The Certification in Control Self-Assessment (CCSA) is a specialty certification program designed primarily for practitioners of control self-assessment. The one-part CCSA exam has 125 multiple-choice questions covering:
1. CSA Fundamentals
2. CSA Program Integration
3. Elements of the CSA Process
4. Business Objectives/Organizational Performance
5. Risk Identification and Assessment
6. Control Theory and Application
You may choose to take this specialty exam as credit for Part IV of the CIA exam.
The CCSA exam is comprehensive. One has to go through a lot of readings for learning the various exam topics.
