Description

Description:

Standards for Internal Control in the Federal Government, known as the “Green Book,” sets the standards for an effective internal control system for federal agencies. This course covers the effective information, communication system and monitoring of the government internal control framework, as discussed within the GAO Green Book. Effective information and communication systems are a key component of an effective system of internal controls. Effective internal control monitoring assesses the effectiveness of control performance over time and promptly resolves identified weaknesses. These ongoing control evaluations, and corrective actions, are necessary to achieve objectives because they help ensure an effective system of internal controls is in place and operating effectively to mitigate any risks. Together, information, communication, and monitoring support the functioning of the other key components: the control environment, risk assessment, and control activities.
