A significant challenge facing many auditors is determining and documenting their independence under generally accepted government auditing standards (GAGAS). All professional involved in audits performed in accordance with GAGAS should have a working knowledge of the independence requirements imposed by the 2018 Yellow Book. We will cover the issues that all auditors need to know about the GAGAS independence requirements, by providing example about how to comply with these requirements. This event may be a rebroadcast of a live event and the instructor will be available to answer your questions during the event.
