Enhance Your Ability to Audit in a Grants Environment While Earning Required CPEs

What are the New Yellow Book CPE Requirements and How Do They Affect Me?

In April 2005, the Comptroller General issued updated Guidance on GAGAS Requirements for Continuing Professional Education. All auditors conducting A-133 audits (which are subject to Yellow Book CPE requirements) must earn at least 24 hours of CPE every two years. This training must pertain to government auditing, the government environment, or the specific or unique environment in which the audited entity operates, i.e., for an A-133 auditor, the grants environment. Auditors who go beyond field work to perform planning, directing, and reporting duties must earn a total of 80 hours of CPE credit that directly enhance their professional proficiency to perform audits or attestation agreements.

How Can Management Concept's Courses Help Me Become a Better A-133 Auditor?

Management Concepts teaches governmentwide grants requirements and best practices to personnel from federal agencies, pass-through entities, and recipient organizations. Because these courses focus on the applicability of statutory and regulatory requirements to the grants environment, many of these courses also benefit auditors who conduct A-133 audits of federal grant recipients and subrecipients.

All of our Grants and Assistance training courses qualify for continuing professional education credits (CPEs). The chart below provides a snapshot of the Grants training courses most likely to help A-133 auditors meet their Yellow Book CPE requirements and hone their ability to audit in the grants environment.
