Student goals and capabilities

Looking to elevate your organization, and bring it to the next level?


Bring on learners from Elms College to be your learner-consultants, in a project-based experience. Learners will work on one main project over a agreed upon time frame during the course of the semester. We will connect with and/or your team as needed with virtual communication tools.


Learners in this program/experience will explore the study of internal controls, auditing and risk based decision making in the context of our Auditing course. Our Elms College learners can support you and your team as needed to assess your internal controls structure. After the initial assessment, our Elms College learners will map-out an internal controls plan that is tailored to your entity's risk profile, staffing skill level, and controls needs.


We will get you audit ready!
