Advance your organization's RACF knowledge and skills with in-house or public training delivered by our professionals. We are very effective at sharing the technical knowledge, implementation best practices, and audit findings we have gained from many years of extensive hands-on experience.

 

"My 35 years in IT Auditing is coming to a close. I want to acknowledge that out of the many training sessions and conferences I've attended, your presentations on RACF have benefited me the longest. IT and Audit individuals should take your training because of the expertise you provide."  James Werner, IT Audit Manager, MetLife

"Handout has a lot of wisdom and tips." Frank Russo, Information Assurance Manager, Blue Cross/ Blue Shield of South Carolina.

"I took your RACF Audit For Results class, and I have to say it's been a fantastic help. I'm finishing up a RACF audit right now and many of the things I learned at your class have really surprised the administrators here." IT Auditor, midwest insurance firm

 

Along with an outstanding education, you will receive the benefit of free RACF consulting advice during class. As we describe each control option, we look at how the option is currently set on your system, discuss the strengths and weaknesses of your particular implementation, and offer suggestions for improving controls. Attendees to our RACF audit course have found their audit is nearly half done by the end of class. One attendee exclaimed that we uncovered many more findings in a three day audit course than one of our competitors did in a three week RACF review. This unique quality sets RSH RACF training far above the rest.
