PNWHEIA is an opportunity to network and learn from each other. Over the past few years, PNWHEIA has proven to be a resourceful and engaged group of internal audit professionals from universities and colleges in Alaska, Washington, Oregon, California, Montana, Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming. We’ve even gone international and welcomed colleagues from Canada!
This year we are hoping to bring together 100 colleagues. As in the past, the content will address relevant and emerging risk topics for the higher education internal audit community. Moreover, this event is an excellent networking opportunity, allowing participants to share their lessons learned on the audit trail and best practices.
