The Summit, consisting of a variety of interactive sessions, available for an online audience.

The Summit aims to provide a global platform for members of the INTOSAI community and stakeholders to come together to:

• Exchange views on upcoming trends like sustainability reporting and assurance in the public sector, as a part of the launch of IDI/ACCA/IFAC publication on the topic
• Discuss professionalisation of SAI Auditors with specific focus on IDI’s professional qualification – Professional Education for SAI Auditors (PESA) – and its future scale-up
• Determine what it takes to set up and maintain sustainable audit practices in SAIs in diverse contexts.
• Network and explore partnerships
• And in a very exciting development, to come together to launch ‘The Centre for SAI Audit Professionals’

IDI’s Global Summit for Professionalisation of SAI Auditors is built around four themes:

1. Future SAI Audit: We will discuss the role of SAIs in providing external oversight on sustainability reporting in the public sector and launch a joint publication from IDI/ACCA/ IFAC
2. Professional Certification of SAI Auditors Spotlight on PESA: A premier avenue for SAIs and SAI auditors seeking to elevate their competencies – and an exploration of the certification journey, strategic considerations for advancing within the PESA framework, laddering and scaling PESA and forging valuable partnerships.
3. System of Audit Quality Management: Under this theme we will discuss the competencies required by SAI auditors to successfully implement updated ISSAI 140. We will also discuss how shared services can be provided to SAIs through a certified pool of quality management facilitators.
4. Sustainable Audit Practices: Exploring what constitutes sustainable audit practices and take a deep dive into performance audits. We will also reflect on sustainable audit practices from the perspective of Small Island Developing States (SIDS).
