Taking Part in Your Credit Union’s Next Audit? Read This.
If you are reading this, you may be new to the world of credit union audit processes. Audits are an essential part of the credit union’s operations and ensure that all internal controls are in place and functioning properly.

How to Measure Success when Implementing Auditing Solutions
Finding a solution to address credit union auditing inefficiency is difficult enough. Measuring success after actually implementing changes in the audit process is an additional challenge.
Specifically, it’s difficult to know how to measure the efficacy of the solution. How can auditors know that the impact is significant enough? What is the benchmark of success?
How to Maximize Audit Efficiency with Minimal Resources
If your organization is struggling to keep up with increasing audit demands, it’s likely not due to a single issue. Rather, multiple issues combine to affect efficiency and threaten negative (or even detrimental) consequences.
Unfortunately, credit unions and their auditing teams don’t have the resources to fix every existing problem at one time. It’s key to prioritize changes that have the potential to yield the biggest impact.
Here, the problem lies in identifying the areas with the most potential to improve efficiency with the resources available.
Exponential credit union growth brings a wave of new problems—primarily, audit departments aren’t growing at a proportionate rate to the increase in new responsibilities. There isn’t enough time or staff to meet compliance demands, and credit unions collectively face bigger problems as a result.
Helping credit union audit programs succeed is our mission at Redboard. We’ve developed checklists, worksheets, and more to help auditors increase their bandwidth.
Now, Redboard has teamed up with The Audit Library to save credit union auditors’ time and make their lives easier.
