Task Force on INTOSAI Auditor Professionalization (TFIAP)
In 2016 the INTOSAI Governing Board established the Task-force on INTOSAI Auditor Professionalisation (TFIAP) to do development work on the concepts of auditor competence in INTOSAI.
The two key deliverables that the TFIAP committed to produce in the period 2016 to 2019, were the updated competency framework and the new guide on pathways for professional development. Please find them here:
Guide Pathways for Professional Development of Auditors in SAIs.

- GUID 1950: Guidance on the development of competency frameworks for auditors
- GUID 1951: Guidance on the development of pathways for the professional development of auditors
