Remaining 2023 Events
The chapter has several events to wind up 2023. If you need CPEs to end the year, want to learn a new skill, or join us for a holiday social, consider these events:
Seminar – Introduction to Auditing with PowerShell®
Auditors and IT professionals work with large amounts of data, requiring the need for a variety of tools to help them obtain, review, analyze, and/or export this data. One of the most versatile (and free) tools for working with data is PowerShell®, which is included with the Windows OS. While designed as a systems administration tool, it also has powerful capabilities that auditors and IT professionals can use. This two-day hands-on virtual seminar is designed for auditors and IT professionals who want to learn how to use PowerShell® in performing audits or data analysis projects. Throughout the course, students will have the opportunity to use commands presented during the course through hands-on exercises.
