Institute of Internal Auditors
The Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) is an international professional association. The IIA offers professional certifications and provides standards for the internal audit profession.
The IIA was established in November 1941. The first international chapter was established in Toronto in 1944. Additional international expansion outside North America occurred in London and Manila in 1948, with chapters in Japan and Australia in 1952.
The IIA Code of Ethics was adopted in 1968 and a common body of knowledge in 1972. The Certified Internal Auditor examination was established in 1974. The IIA first issued professional standards, the Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing, in 1978. In 1985, The IIA was one of the original sponsors of the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (the Treadway Commission).
In 2025, The IIA membership was 260,000 members from 170 countries and territories. Global headquarters are in Lake Mary, Florida. Anthony Pugliese is the President and CEO of the organization.
The Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) certification is the primary professional designation offered by The IIA. The CIA certification is a globally recognized designation.
To become a CIA, candidates must pass the three-part CIA exam as well as meet certain educational and professional experience requirements stipulated by The IIA. The IIA also offers the CIA certification through a one-part exam, called the CIA Challenge Exam, for those who are already a Certified Public Accountant, Chartered Accountant, or Certified Information Systems Auditor.
CIAs are annually required to earn continuing education hours to renew their certifications.
As of December 31, 2021, there were 178,512 holders of the CIA designation. Almost half were in the Asia Pacific region (85,604), with North America coming in second (57,482).
