The LSU Center for Internal Auditing is committed to providing quality internal audit education to
students from a variety of academic disciplines and ethnic backgrounds. To facilitate the recruitement
of minority students, the LSU Center for Internal Auditing hired Carlos Thomas in July 2007 as a diversity
recuiter. Through a series of informational sessions targeting underrepresented populations, the
LSUCIA was able to strategically increase promotion of the LSUCIA's programs to students at Louisiana
State University and Southern University. In February 2007, the LSUCIA was awarded a three-year grant
from The Institute of Internal Auditors Internal Audit Education Partnership. A component of the grant
will fund the diversity recuiting coordinator position. The diversity coordinator also provides diversity
training for the LSUCIA students and conducts related research. |
