From The President

Dear Readers,

We are now under 50 days to inaugurating the International Conference 2018. The hectic
pace towards sponsorship and registrations is picking up. We certainly look forward
to meeting you at the venue and the one of a kind event which will be held in the
Middle East for the first time and unlikely to return at least for the next 6-7 years. The
networking opportunity will be immense and there will be a lot to learn. I urge you not
to miss this golden opportunity.

We have also recently released the Success Stories of the winners of the 2017 Best
Practice Award. This award deserves a special mention as some of the success stories will
be presented in the International Conference 2018 and should give a huge boost to our
regional organizations in putting forward their success in front of the world.

I also urge our fellow auditors to take advantage of the CIA training session to be held
during the conference and avail the insights of one of the worlds leading trainers for
CIA. The COSO certificate course is also offered by the UAE IAA which has been highly
successful and found to be valuable by the attendees.

Regards,

Abdulqader Obaid Ali
President
