This instructor-led, live training in Sweden (online or onsite) is aimed at intermediate-level professionals who wish to develop a systematic approach to identifying, analyzing, and resolving problems using RCA methodologies.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Understand essential concepts of RCA and continuous improvement cycles.

The primary objective of this program is to shift the audit process from a reactive approach focused on "finding" issues to a proactive strategy centered on "prevention." By mastering Root Cause Analysis, the Internal Audit team can specifically target the elimination of recurring findings. This ensures that once a weakness is identified, the resulting recommendations offer a permanent solution, thereby safeguarding the company's operational efficiency and financial integrity.

Failing to implement structured RCA creates a high-risk environment characterized by:

• Financial Erosion: Unresolved root causes within financial processes result in cumulative losses that increase over time.
• Resource Wastage: Auditors spend 40% more time re-auditing the same failed controls, detracting from their ability to focus on new strategic risks.
• Diminished Authority: Repeatedly reporting the same issues weakens the Audit Division's influence with senior management and auditees.
