Services

Our responsibility is to provide TCCD with audits and consulting services:

  • Compliance Audits check if departments and employees are following laws, policies, and procedures.
  • Consulting/Advisory Projects provide expert opinion and general counsel to college leaders.
  • Financial Audits review how financial transactions are recorded and reported. These audits look at whether funds have been properly authorized, received, and spent.
  • Information Technology Audits check how the college manages and protects its computer systems and data. These audits evaluate the strength of our business continuity plan and disaster recovery.
  • Investigative Services help get answers through auditors’ intensive research.
  • Operational Audits review how operations are identified, measured, classified, and reported. These audits also look at whether college resources are used in ways that meet the College’s goals and follow laws, policies, and regulations.
