Implement the 2025 GAO Green Book with Practical, Defensible
Internal Controls
The GAO Green Book Compliance Academy is an intensive
three-day, in-person CPE program focused on implementing the 2025 Standards for
Internal Control in the Federal Government.
The 2025 Green Book supersedes the 2014 edition and is
effective beginning with fiscal year 2026. It strengthens requirements and
implementation guidance involving fraud, improper payments, information
security, significant organizational and program changes, preventive controls,
risk-assessment documentation, and management accountability.
The course is designed around the Green Book’s five
components, 17 principles, supporting attributes, and the direct linkage
between organizational objectives, risks, control activities, documentation,
monitoring, and remediation. The accompanying course materials emphasize
practical implementation guidance rather than theory alone.
Why Attend the GAO Green Book Compliance Academy?
Government organizations do not satisfy the Green Book
merely by maintaining policies or completing an annual checklist.
An effective internal control system must be:
- Properly designed.
- Implemented throughout the organization.
- Operating as intended.
- Supported by appropriate evidence.
- Evaluated against organizational objectives and risks.
- Monitored and improved when deficiencies are identified.
The academy gives attendees a structured approach for
performing this work.
Participants will examine how management can establish
accountability, define objectives, assess risks, design preventive and
detective controls, evaluate deficiencies, document conclusions, and support an
overall assessment of internal control effectiveness.
