Thank you!

P1 has covered all of the main ones I use.

I have joined some LinkedIn discussion groups where people may post articles and you’ll see some influencers and thought leaders post. I never visit the groups, but enough posts randomly appear in my feed and help keep me informed. One example is Richard Chambers, the former IIA leader. I find these posts present more progressive views.

Free CPD webinars are sometimes useful too. My main sources are CPA institutes, IIA national and local chapters, and Wolters Kluwer.

You can search for them: IIA, ISACA, Enterprise Risk Management, RIMS, Internal Audit - Emerging Trends and Techniques, Internal Audit & Risk Management Consultants, GRC are some of the groups I have.

Currently in risk consulting but seconding at an international bank for internal audit on trade related scopes. Recently got offered to join them at a higher level position.
