The Institute of Internal Auditors Presents: All Things Internal Audit

In this episode, Benito Ybarra sits down with Rick Walke to discuss the newly updated Internal Audit Practitioner™ (IAP™) designation. They explore its value as a permanent credential, its role as a stepping stone to the Certified Internal Auditor® (CIA®), and how it equips internal auditors with foundational knowledge. The conversation highlights the IAP’s global reach, employer credibility, and practical benefits for students, rotational auditors, and professionals at the start of their audit journey.
