IA Retreat, 5-7 February





IQRI's first retreat for OUM internal auditors was held at Awana Genting. It was officiated and declared open by YBhg Professor Tan Sri Anuwar Ali, President and Vice-Chancellor at 3pm. Tan Sri emphasized the need for OUM to ensure quality in all aspects of our work at OUM when catering to the needs of our learners. He stressed the need for workshop participants to also deliberate on how they can further contribute to OUM's quality journey.

The workshop started with a panel comprising the heads of the four departments that have ISO certification and the Chief Financial Officer. Chaired by Prof Madya Dr. Wahab, the panel members shared some of their experiences and issues surfaced during auditing or in preparation for audits. This provided some of the input necessary for further deliberation by OUM internal auditors.

Attended by about 50 internal auditors, the retreat aimed to provide and enhance skills in finding the root cause of problems, such as those uncovered through audits. The workshop was facilitated by two external facilitators along with Prof Madya Dr. Wahab and Puan Ruzita, our chief internal auditor and deputy chief internal auditor, respectively, together with Prof Zoraini, IQRI Director and Tn Hj Mohd Izanee, PP Kuantan Director, the workshop achieved its objectives.

The resolution from the workshop were shared with SVP and will soon be presented to the members of the GMC.
