2023-2024 Fellows

Congratulations to the graduate Fellows!

2023-2024 FellowsIn the CAAF Fellowships, participants from our partner supreme audit institutions (SAIs) learn from Canadian auditors and develop the skills, knowledge, and experience needed to become leaders in their SAIs’ performance audit departments. Fellows observe and contribute to the work of a Canadian legislative audit office, while also developing an audit plan that they will implement in their own office.

The 2023-2024 Fellowships began with a virtual component that the Fellows completed from their countries, from November 2023 to January 2024. During that period, they started working on their audit plan projects and participated in training, a book club, and meetings with mentors from their Canadian host offices. The Fellows then came to Canada, from February to July 2024, where they worked with an audit team at their host office, participated in CAAF courses, met with other audit offices and institutions, and finished developing their audit plan projects.

The Fellowships are a key part of our international program, in which CAAF and our Canadian partners are helping to advance performance auditing in the participating countries.
