It supersedes any earlier Codes. It has been developed as part of the Standard Tech Programme. It is the official Auditor’s Code.

It is required of auditors and students under training that they know this Code by heart, know what it means, and as they process, practice it. It is one thing to know it - another to practice it. A good auditor does both. It is not something to be read, agreed with and forgotten.

Following it means success in cases. Neglecting any part of it means failures. It combines the arduously won experiences collected during eighteen years from the practice of thousands of auditors.

We want successes.
