Internal auditing is an independent, objective assurance and consulting activity designed to add value and improve the operations of Frisco ISD. It helps Frisco ISD accomplish its objectives by bringing a systematic, disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management, control, and governance processes.
The Internal Audit Department reports to the Frisco ISD Board of Trustees functionally and administratively to the Superintendent. The annual audit plan is approved by the Board of Trustees. The Director of Internal Audit meets with the Board of Trustees periodically to report on the activities of the Internal Audit Department.
The mission of the Internal Audit Department is to enhance and protect the District’s organizational value by providing risk-based and objective assurance, advice and insight.
The Internal Audit Department is not immune to being audited. Every five years, a team of auditors from outside Frisco ISD performs an External Quality Assurance Review as required by the Global Internal Audit Standards to determine the Internal Audit Department’s compliance with the Global Internal Audit Standards.
