Background
Starting in 1994, Intermediate ABL Audit Seminar become the #1 ABL Audit
Course. Based on extensive analysis of what is wrong with training,
including analysis of hundreds of hours of (poor quality) training from national
providers, CPA seminars, a lack of an Advanced curriculum to analyze the numbers
and a desire to start something new; the course was born. After a year of
outlines, trials, rewrites, multimedia testing and feedback, the first class was
launched at Comerica Bank in Texas during October of 1994.
Intermediate ABL Auditing is in its eighth generation of multimedia presentation
and the Live course presentation incorporates the advanced electronic data analysis as the first day.
Course content and case studies are revised after each class to hone the focus
on intermediate to advanced skills.
Students are taught to look at the numbers and analyze trends. The focus
is:
-
Analysis of numbers
-
Professional Judgment
-
Electronic Data gathering
-
Risk analysis of when to
do more testing
-
Danger signs and extended
tests to combat willful misconduct
-
Advanced testing
techniques
-
Speed tips to get more
done faster
A Tradition of Excellence in ABL Training Seminar Courses:
Continuing with our tradition of maintaining the #1 ABL Audit
Course, dozens of slides have been added, modified, changed, and deleted based on student feedback and instructor white-board drawings.
The
DATA course has been added
while additional revisions to include different versions of Excel. We NEVER stop revising and
improving this course!
Benefits of This Course / Learning Objectives
We believe that borrowers are smarter than ever and the possibility of willful
misconduct increases with adverse conditions. These factors make a well
trained staff a priority. Students learn the professional judgment skills
and testing techniques to help safeguard assets and enhance a standard workpaper
format. Critical thinking skills, fraud cases, the relationship of key
numbers and real-world analysis techniques are emphasized. Computers can
enhance appearance, speed analytical time and help to test conditions, but a
trained mind is needed to spot adverse trends and dig deeper when needed.
Intermediate ABL Audit Seminar provides the skills and techniques to enhance
field examiner performance. Combined, these skills can reduce asset
exposure, help to prevent booking poor quality credits, reduce write-offs and
cut field time.
