The Green Book Compliance Training Academy

A Practical Approach to GAO Green Book Compliance Programs

Join us for a unique, interactive workshop that "walks you through" the latest update of The Green Book which now conforms to the Internal Control Integrated Framework (COSO 2013) from the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). This training is focused on the current Standards for Internal Control in the Federal Government as detailed in the GAO's Green Book.

This twenty-four hour (Three Day) CPE course provides you with the tools to implement a compliance program that is consistent with The Green Book.

This program covers the Who - What - Why - Where - How to Control. We look at the 17 principles-based approach presented in The Green Book. We make sure your program covers the 52 attributes concerning Green Book compliance.

Documentation is a necessary part of an effective internal control system and is required for the effective design, implementation, and operating effectiveness of the internal control system. To document an understanding of an entity's internal control, management may consider developing documents such as:

1. Policies and procedures manuals

2. Flowcharts

3. Narratives/Tables

4. Risk Control Matrices (RCM)

Establishing a Project Management Office (PMO). Transitioning to Create Value Through Self-Assessment. Mapping the key controls library to the 17 principles and 52. Gap Analysis.

We present the roadmap to Green Book compliance and documentation based on textbook approaches and real-world guidance from our client engagements.

Relax, learn and enjoy expert instructor presentations, group discussions, role-playing, audit and compliance exercises, white-board diagramming and simulations.

We also present a one day CPE seminar that provides overview guidance on how to implement and assess an internal control framework based on The Green Book. You can review this program at "The Green Book Seminar" (1 Day).
