Riyadh: The Saudi Authority of Internal Auditors, in cooperation with IE University, recently held the graduation ceremony for the first cohort of the IE Executive Artificial Intelligence Program for Internal Auditors in Madrid.
The event was attended by Hussam Alangari, chairman of the authority and president of the General Court of Audit; Abdullah Al-Shebeili, the authority’s CEO; and a number of university officials and representatives.
The program stems from a strategic partnership between the authority and IE University, one of Europe’s leading higher education and business management institutions, to prepare internal audit leaders to keep pace with rapid technological change and leverage AI applications in institutional work environments.
The program focuses on automating repetitive tasks, enhancing risk detection, providing digital insights to support strategic decision-making, and integrating AI tools into internal audit operations.
It also helps build governance frameworks aligned with institutional objectives and regulatory requirements while leading institutional transformation through a clear and actionable roadmap, the Saudi Press Agency reported.
