Product Details

Are you auditing employee benefit plans?

Employee benefit plan (EBP) audit engagements continue to be scrutinized by regulators and peer reviewers due to history of noncompliance with applicable professional standards. Auditors require proper skills to perform EBP engagements effectively. You will work through the plan audit process from engagement acceptance through the archive. Because these are the most common types of plans audited, you will take a deep dive into defined contribution plans to comply not only with professional standards, but also with ERISA and SEC requirements. You will also obtain an awareness of additional considerations when auditing defined benefit pension plans and health and welfare benefit plans. Tap into ways to plan and conduct effective risk-based plan audits to comply with professional standards while maximizing efficiency.

This course provides CPE credit in the Auditing (11.5) and Accounting (1) fields of study.
