Three Experiences with Action Learning: Audit Training Meets the Real World

Abstract

The experience of using students as part of an internal audit team is described. Teaching staff and consulting advisers worked with students on three successive “live cases” within their own institution. Some prior auditing experience provided the best foundation for developing and showing skills but students may have learned most from the experience of facing problems they were not prepared for.
