Internal Auditing and Co‐operative Education: An Opportunity for Action

Abstract

This article proposes that student internships should be expanded to form part of a specifically co‐operative learning programme: repeated step‐out periods of work with a co‐operating employer at different stages of a college educational programme. This proposal stems from an IIA recommendation of internships as a means of attracting students into the profession. A detailed scheme for achieving this is described.
