Course Overview
In finance the difference between a healthy position on internal sharia audit and a dangerous one is often a single assumption. Models supporting the financial and banking practice capability fail quietly, and usually at the worst moment. It is written for people who have to make this aspect of financial and banking practice work with the resources they already have. The programme builds the judgement to know which parts of internal sharia audit to standardise and which to leave flexible. Most organisations already have a policy on this strand of financial and banking practice; far fewer can show it working. The programme uses small-group work so that each participant's treatment of this aspect of financial and banking practice is examined, not just described. The most reliable predictor of sound internal sharia audit is whether anyone reviews it when nothing has gone wrong. It establishes a shared vocabulary for this area of financial and banking practice so that teams can disagree productively about it. Work concludes with a self-assessment of this aspect of financial and banking practice that participants can repeat annually.
