I'm going to be taking PA1 first as its more in line with my current position of being an Internal Auditor.

For PA1 I never had a case where I was an internal auditor. I was always external

That's how I understood the course.. it would be from an external perspective.  I deal with the external auditors all the time, so i'm hoping i'll be ok.

I took PA2 first...and I also heard that PA1 is harder; however, I think it depends on what you do for a living... I rarely deal with auditors so I'm a bit intimidated by PA1 (I'm taking it next semester).

I'm so fresh of the boat to all these courses. MS2 is good so far ( will see how the exam goes). I'm kind of scared for PA1 and PA2. Especially now that everyone is issuing they are hard. Good luck to me :)

I've taken PA1, and didn't find it too bad.  I work internally, and PA1 takes the external stance, but I work close enough with our external auditors and accountant that it was somewhat familiar to me.  I'll be taking PA2 in the spring (last course!!).

Hi,
 
For those who have taken the PA courses, just want to know if you needed the CICA Handbook for your assignments or to help you study?
 
Thanks
