What is the Operationally-Sound Digital Strategy course about?
Digital transformation in audit is often ad hoc, relying on patchwork tools and inconsistent documentation. This leads to fatigue, rework, and gaps in assurance, especially when scaling across programs. Professionals are expected to lead change without a structured, repeatable strategy.
