through Stellenbosch University and my post-graduate diploma through UNISA. In my free time I enjoy good food, relaxing at home and spending time with my loved ones. I love anime, food and animals.\n\nLooking ahead, I aspire to become an audit partner at my firm and to inspire my juniors to reach their full potential.\n\nMy motivation to stay in auditing after completing my training contract was that I really enjoy auditing and working with different people, industries, entities etc. There is never a dull moment in auditing, as there are always new challenges and I am constantly learning and gaining knowledge. I used to limit myself from a lack of self-belief. However, through a lot of prayer and the support of my directors, colleagues, friends and parents I was motivated to try my best. I decided to stop limiting myself and aim to go as far as I possibly could and the rest is history.\n\nThe program was eye-opening, as completing all the reports and forms made me realize how much experience and knowledge I do actually have. Also, where my strengths lie and where I should refresh or gain more knowledge and experience.\n\nTo potential\/other candidates, yes, it is a lot of hard work, but you have already come this far; believe in yourself, try your best, push forward and you will not regret the outcome. If you don't at least try, you will never know what you are capable of.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-2539c2a\" data-id=\"2539c2a\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4e2a2fc elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"4e2a2fc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/elma.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4723\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/elma.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/elma-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/elma-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_4e2a2fc_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tElma Smal\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 20 March 2025 ORA: Sindy Jonker<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-4e2a2fc\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_4e2a2fc_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/elma.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4723\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/elma.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/elma-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/elma-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Elma Smal<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 20 March 2025 ORA: Sindy Jonker<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t I completed my undergraduate degree at North West University and my CTA at UNISA. Outside of auditing I am a sport enthusiast, playing and watching\/supporting.\n\nMy career aspiration is to become an audit partner at a respected audit firm in the next few years. I also want to improve my technological skills, specialise in data analytics and help create a more efficient audit environment in the firm.\n\nMy motivation to pursue a career in auditing and remain in the profession on completion of my training contract was because I love auditing. Each client is different, year on year, and I learn something from every engagement file. No audit is a dull audit. I like the challenge of applying my knowledge and seeing how the audit unfolds. It feels like building a puzzle. Piece by piece, until you see the big picture.\n\nThe Audit Development Programme guided me to become the best auditor I can potentially be, through step-by-step considerations. Although it was hard work and long hours to complete, it showed me that applying my mind in my everyday work environment, was leading me to become a better auditor. The program forced me to take part in more technical conversations, which expanded my knowledge further.\n\nThrough the programme, I have developed my communication skills, in conversation and in writing, to ensure the message I want to bring across is understood and leaves little room for assumptions\/confusion. I have also learned valuable skills through reviewing work of others, which is a major part of my current and future expected roles.\n\nMy ORA was always available for mentoring and discussing competencies that I found challenging. She always made time where needed and provided a good example of the RA I would like to become. She has a strong technical knowledge and has taken the time to upskill me to be a better version of myself, in the work environment.\n\nMy message to other candidates considering joining the programme is that although the program seems like a long and tedious process, it's worth the sweat. If you love being in audit, there should be no stopping you reach the peak in auditing and being part of the elite members.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-863850a\" data-id=\"863850a\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-435f65a elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"435f65a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/litasha.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4722\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/litasha.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/litasha-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/litasha-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_435f65a_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLitasha Naidoo\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 20 March 2025 ORA: Moshe Yona Tobias<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-435f65a\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_435f65a_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/litasha.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4722\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/litasha.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/litasha-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/litasha-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Litasha Naidoo<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 20 March 2025 ORA: Moshe Yona Tobias<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI completed both my Bachelor in Accounting Sciences degree and Post graduate diploma in Applied accounting sciences (level 1 and 2) at the University of South Africa. During this time, I also completed my articles with SAICA.\n\nAfter qualifying as a CA(SA), I began my audit journey as an audit manager for the next few years where I implemented significant changes within the audit firm to improve efficiency, streamline processes, and enhance the quality of audits.\n\nOutside my professional life, I am deeply passionate about my family, especially my two boys and my husband. They are my greatest source of joy and inspiration.\n\nI also enjoy exploring and trying new types of food from different cultures and cuisine and have recently taken up Yoga.\n\nMy future career aspirations are to one day open my own audit practice or build on an existing one where I can further influence strategic direction of our audits and contribute to shaping the future of the profession. I also aspire to mentor and guide younger auditors, helping them navigate their own journeys in the field. Ultimately, I aim to make a lasting impact on the industry through innovative and efficient audit practices.\n\nMy motivation to pursue a career in auditing stemmed from my strong interest in financial systems and problem-solving. I was drawn to the dynamic nature of the profession, where every audit offers unique challenges and learning opportunities. Throughout my training contract, I gained invaluable experience and developed a deep understanding of how auditing plays a crucial role in ensuring transparency and accountability in businesses. The opportunity to continuously learn, grow professionally, and contribute to the success of my clients has kept me engaged and motivated to remain in the profession.\n\nAs an audit manager, my favorite aspect of the role is training and mentoring new clerks. I take great satisfaction in supporting their professional development, guiding them throughout their contracts, and witnessing their growth. It is incredibly rewarding to see them leave our firm as confident Chartered Accountants, ready to make an impact in the business world.\n\nMy experience with the Audit Development Programme (ADP) has been highly enriching. While it was a rigorous and demanding process, I found that it provided a comprehensive and structured learning environment that was critical in developing my technical knowledge and soft skills. The programme challenged me to think critically, adapt quickly, and continuously improve in all aspects of my professional role.\n\nTo those considering or currently enrolled in the programme, I encourage you to embrace the journey with an open mind and a strong work ethic.

I the studied at University of South Africa, where I completed an Advanced Diploma in Accounting, also graduating Cum Laude and completed my Postgraduate Diploma in Accounting (CTA) at Nelson Mandela University.\n\nBesides auditing, I enjoy road running, including marathons (with a personal best of 03:26) and ultra marathons. Road running teaches me discipline, consistency, mental toughness, and the importance of goal setting and achievement.\n\nMy career aspiration is to establish my own training office to develop future Chartered Accountant CA(SA)s and Registered Auditors\n\nMy motivation to pursue a career in auditing was driven by my passion for financial accountability, problem-solving, and adding value through independent assurance. During my studies and training contract, I developed a deep appreciation for the role auditors play in upholding transparency, strengthening governance, and mitigating financial risks. Remaining in the profession beyond my training contract was a natural decision, as auditing continuously challenges me to think critically, adapt to complex environments, and contribute to meaningful financial oversight. Moreover, I am passionate about mentoring and developing future professionals, which aligns with my long-term aspiration of establishing my own training office to produce future CA(SA)s and Registered Auditors\n\nMy experience on the programme was both challenging and rewarding. It provided me with a structured learning environment that combined technical knowledge, practical exposure, and professional development. The rotational opportunities allowed me to work on diverse audits, engage with different industries, and develop a holistic understanding of financial reporting and risk assessment. The programme also strengthened my ability to work under pressure, manage multiple stakeholders, and uphold professional scepticism.\n\nTo those considering or currently enrolled in the programme: This journey is demanding, but it is one of the most rewarding professional experiences you will undertake. The challenges you face will shape you into a resilient, skilled, and competent professional. Stay committed, seek mentorship, and embrace every learning opportunity. Most importantly, keep your long-term goals in mind\u2014this programme is not just about qualifying as a RA, but about building a foundation for a successful and impactful career.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section

I aspire to become an audit partner in the near future.\n\nThe firm where I am employed ensured that my client portfolio would assist me in completing my portfolio of evidence, with sufficient support throughout the process and setting time aside for me to ensure that I meet my individual goals. The training officer at the firm also understood the IRBA registration process well which meant she played a key role in the efficiency of how I planned my POE. My ORA has also been of great support to me by availing herself to me and providing key insights that contributed to my success. The ADP team has also been extremely helpful throughout this entire process. It is evident that they have a great team as they went the extra mile to support me in achieving this milestone.\n\nSelf-discipline was key in achieving this milestone. I further developed my leadership skills in engaging in various discussions with multiple stakeholders, whether it was for self-development to ensure I could add to my POE or have discussions with the client on how to improve inefficiencies for other purposes, this was a key skill which will certainly play a big role in my future expected roles as I progress in my career. Another key skill was time management and communication which was critical to ensure key milestones were met. This has enhanced my ability to add value to my current role.\n\nMy message to future candidates is to just do it. Nothing is difficult, it is only unfamiliar. This investment in your future will reap unlimited rewards and your future self will be grateful that you have invested this time in your career.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div

the Auditor General South Africa opened my eyes to the significant impact auditing can have on the lives of South African citizens by promoting accountability and responsible service delivery.\n\nAs an audit manager at bdk Auditors, I had the opportunity to work in the interesting field of agriculture and build experience in finding solutions to complex issues, maintaining client relationships and managing team members.\n\nMy hunger for expanding my knowledge and vision of my career goals led me to enrol on the ADP, which provided me with a comprehensive review of auditing standards and technical aspects.\n\nThe program's emphasis on developing soft skills and building client trust is invaluable, and I highly recommend it to aspiring candidates.\n\nUpon completion of the programme,

degree at University of the Western Cape and completed my Post Graduate Diploma in Accounting (PGDA) at the University of Fort Hare.\n\nOutside of auditing I enjoy going to the gym, physical exercise helps me in maintaining healthy weight, strength, boosts the immune system and above all it helps me to manage the auditing stress during tight audit deadlines. I also enjoy reading mainly non-fiction books as it is a great way to expand my knowledge.\n\nOne of my greatest aspirations revolves around becoming one of the highly skilled and respected professionals in the field of accounting and auditing. I aspire to continuously expanding my knowledge and expertise in auditing and eventually becoming the Audit Partner. \u201cThe future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams\u201d. It was always my dream to be an Audit Partner and I still believe that I will attain that dream.\n\nMy motivation to pursue a career in auditing and remain in the profession on completion of my training contract was the impact and the value that as an Auditor I added to my clients and being an auditor was directly aligned with my career long term aspirations. Auditors play a crucial role in promoting accountability and transparency in financial reporting.\n\nMy experience with the ADP was astonishing and challenging at the same time because the program required a lot of time and attention. Sometimes, it was not easy to find time to complete and document all the sections on time. Eventually I managed to improve on time management and plan my time to accommodate the ADP. The ADP required a lot of reflection on technical and soft skills during the 18 month period. The reflection process helped me to track my level of experience and exposure to the auditing field. I could clearly see the areas where I needed to improve and also plan what I am going to do to attain the competencies required on the ADP. Through the reflection process and documenting my experience and competencies, I developed detailed writing skills in a professional manner.\n\nMy message of motivation to aspiring candidates is that you absolutely have a fascinating journey ahead of you. Grab the opportunity with both hands, the opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like hard work.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-abd1540 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"abd1540\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-8948301\" data-id=\"8948301\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d3ae97e elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"d3ae97e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/sandra.jpg\" title=\"sandra\" alt=\"sandra\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_d3ae97e_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSandra De Kramer\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 27 November 2023 ORA: Matthew Paul Black<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-d3ae97e\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_d3ae97e_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/sandra.jpg\" title=\"sandra\" alt=\"sandra\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Sandra De Kramer<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 27 November 2023 ORA: Matthew Paul Black<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI completed my degree at the University of the Free State in Bloemfontein. My passions outside of audit are my family, my two precious little girls and my supportive husband who kept me motivated throughout this process. I also love discovering new recipes to try out.\n\nWith all the changes happening in in the auditing space, I would love to continue learning. My goal is to pass my knowledge on to the next generation of accountants, financial managers, CFO\u2019s etc. I would also like to advance in my firm. I can achieve this by being an asset to them through improving their systems, such as finding the most efficient ways of reaching goals without compromising on the quality and standard of our work.\n\nI am extremely passionate about auditing! This motivated me to pursue a career in auditing and remain in the profession after completing my training contract. My favourite part of the job is training new clerks. I love seeing their growth, assisting them and guiding them throughout their contracts with the result of seeing confident CA\u2019s leaving our firm and entering the business world.\n\nI found the Audit Development Programme quite challenging. However, it also forced me to take a step back and reflect on what I had accomplished over the past couple of months. This reflection reminded me of the challenges I faced, the triumphs I achieved and how much I enjoy what I do. The most valued skill I developed during this program was perseverance. Perseverance led to me to this point (en route to become a RA) and assists me in my current role in my firm. It also motivates me to lead my clerks and ensure that not only do we get our work done, but that do it well.\n\nMy ORA was brilliant. He was very supportive throughout the process and was always ready to help me whenever I needed his assistance.\n\nMy message to aspiring candidates is that you should never give up. If this is truly what you want, then no matter what challenges you might face, once you have passed through the storm, it will all be worth it in the end.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-f3c2355\" data-id=\"f3c2355\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c30707c elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"c30707c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/sean.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-502\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_c30707c_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSean Stander\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 27 November 2023 ORA: Gerhard Pieterse<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-c30707c\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_c30707c_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/sean.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-502\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Sean Stander<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 27 November 2023 ORA: Gerhard Pieterse<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI studied at Stellenbosch University and outside of auditing, I enjoy hitting the golf course with friends, family, and colleagues whenever I can.\n\nFunny thing is, I wasn't entirely sure if I was going to pursue a career in auditing. During my training contract, my audit manager took a different path, and I found myself stepping into his shoes. That move changed everything. As an audit manager for two years, I started to enjoy auditing, especially scrutinising tiny details and problem-solving. I now aspire to be a director and partner of a firm.\n\nThe Audit Development Programme (ADP) was an eye-opener. It took me from just following audit procedures, to understanding the practical implementation of the ISA\u2019s. The dots between theory and practice started connecting.\n\nBig shoutout to my current firm for sponsoring my ADP journey and the ORA for assisting me where necessary. It gave me this whole new perspective on the practical side of the ISA\u2019s and why being a Registered Auditor is gold for job security, especially in a world where artificial intelligence (AI) is on the rise.\n\nI believe that no matter how much AI advances, a Registered Auditor's role is not going anywhere.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-ba00711\" data-id=\"ba00711\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5e48bbf elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"5e48bbf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/monique.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-512\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_5e48bbf_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMonique Barnard\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 21 November 2023 ORA: Christian Jenkinson<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-5e48bbf\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_5e48bbf_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/monique.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-512\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Monique Barnard<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 21 November 2023 ORA: Christian Jenkinson<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI started my undergraduate degree at the North-West University and completed my BCom (Chartered Accountancy) at the end of 2006. In 2007 I completed my Honours in BCom (Professional Accountancy) at North-West University and then started my articles as a SAIPA Professional Accountant in 2008 and completed my articles in 2011. I obtained my Diploma as a Professional Accountant (SA) in May 2013. I also did a postgraduate diploma in Taxation in 2014 at the University of South Africa (UNISA).\n\nOne of the directors at the office that I worked at, who was my mentor, encouraged me to get involved in auditing work and I was promoted to audit senior with my experience as a Professional Accountant. I then decided to further my career and become a CA(SA).\n\nI completed my Postgraduate Diploma in Accounting Sciences and Applied Accounting Sciences at the University of South Africa (UNISA) from 2017-2019. During this time I concurrently completed my SAICA articles after which I passed my ITC exam in January 2020, my APC exam in November 2021 and registered as a CA(SA) in 2022.\n\nMy biggest passion outside of the auditing world is my family and the outside world. I love nature and enjoying life with my family.\n\nI have an opportunity to become a partner at my firm. This opportunity will feed my passion in the audit industry and help us to advance our firm in all technical aspects of our auditing world. I would further like to encourage and mentor other passionate young people in our industry to reach their dreams and goals.\n\nMy motivation to pursue a career in auditing was formed at a young age when I started high school where my accounting subject gave me an interest in the life of the accounting industry. I knew at that age that I would like to be in the accounting industry. After I started working my interest in the auditing world became more appealing.\n\nAs with everything in our industry, the ADP programme taught me that hard work, keeping to what we are learned in the ISA\u2019s can get you the most satisfying job satisfaction. If you practice what we learn in the ISA\u2019s, your audit work becomes more effective and relevant, and we can give our clients more relevant advice on their systems, to ensure better practices in their business. My ORA supported me by helping me to realise that we should think out of the box, use my technical knowledge and where I\u2019m unsure to do research and go deeper into the ISAs to help me find my answer.\n\nMy message to aspiring candidates would be if being an auditor is one of your goals in life never stop to try and reach it, even if it feels like a long journey, it is worth it. This is your career and not a rat race. After fourteen and a half years I reached my dreams, I had as a kid. Nothing in life is too long to get to where you want to be. Use every opportunity and it will make your life worthwhile.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-6a77f83\" data-id=\"6a77f83\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7843f8b elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"7843f8b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/nadia.jpg\" title=\"nadia\" alt=\"nadia\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_7843f8b_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNadia Botes\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 21 November 2023 ORA: Tian van der Merwe<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-7843f8b\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_7843f8b_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/nadia.jpg\" title=\"nadia\" alt=\"nadia\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Nadia Botes<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 21 November 2023 ORA: Tian van der Merwe<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI completed my undergraduate degree at the University of Pretoria and completed my CTA at the University of Johannesburg. Outside of auditing I enjoy spending quality time with family and baking.\n\nMy future career aspirations are to contribute to the firm's success by taking on increased responsibilities and ultimately achieving the position of audit partner at a medium sized firm with a diverse clientele. I am dedicated to delivering high-quality work, building strong client relationships, and actively participating in the firm's growth and success and would love the opportunity to impart my enthusiasm for this profession to article clerks. I am eager to mentor and guide them, sharing not only the technical aspects of the job but also instilling a genuine appreciation for the work we do. My goal is to inspire them to find fulfilment and joy in their roles, fostering a positive and motivated team environment.\n\nGrowing up in a family business environment, I was immersed in a culture that values financial integrity and a commitment to excellence. My family has been a significant source of motivation throughout my professional journey, always encouraging and supporting me. Despite initial challenges, including struggles and a lack of enjoyment in the audit environment during my studies, it was during my articles that I developed a deep appreciation for auditing.\n\nThe Audit Development Programme is a good summary of auditing, linking each ISA, from the planning - to the disclosure stage, with a specific competency and ensuring all audit files are completed at the highest quality possible. My ORA and firm supported me from day one and gave me the necessary exposure to complex clients to complete of all my competencies and capabilities.\n\nMy message to aspiring candidates is to take a moment to acknowledge and celebrate your achievements, no matter how small. Each milestone is a step forward on your journey to becoming a qualified auditor.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-1bc5cda elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1bc5cda\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-3a80e56\" data-id=\"3a80e56\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-068eca1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"068eca1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/danielle.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-527\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_068eca1_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDanielle Kruger\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 04 September 2023 ORA: Mark Watson<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-068eca1\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_068eca1_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/danielle.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-527\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Danielle Kruger<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 04 September 2023 ORA: Mark Watson<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI completed my Undergraduate degree at Stellenbosch University and my CTA at the University of South Africa (UNISA).

Outside of Auditing and the work environment, I am a husband, and a father to a young boy who keeps me busy. I am passionate about aviation related developments, and enjoy sports and the outdoors.\n\nMy aim is to effect some positive change in the aspiring CA\u2019s and RAs through impacting and sharing the knowledge and skills that I have acquired, to enable them to be proficient in their studies and professional career.\n\nI would attribute my motivation to pursue a career and remain in audit to fate, as I did not anticipate studying or remaining in audit, however as the years have gone by, I have realised that I have passion for audit, working with various clients, stakeholders, and audit teams, and adding value to clients, my firm and junior staff.\n\nMy experience on the ADP was that the programme overall was quite beneficial as it led me to take note of and focus on some aspects of audit and the ISA standards, that I would not have ordinarily paid major attention to. The programme also forced me to always go back to read and refer to the actual ISA\u2019s, thereby staying up to date with the latest developments and standards. This assisted me in developing my skills of paying attention to detail, asking the right probing questions and improved my critical thinking and focus on quality. My ORA provided key support through providing with her time and the firm through providing exposure to various clients that enabled me to not have any challenges in obtaining all the competencies and access to working with various RAs in the firm who provided added guidance.\n\nMy message of motivation to aspiring candidates would be to encourage those in audit to start the programme as early as possible after completion of articles as the programme will fast track your understanding of your role and you will see an improvement in quality of your work.

Outside of Auditing, my passion is mentoring and coaching young professionals, making exciting memories and sharing special moments with my children, my wife and my friends and practising forgiveness of self and others.\n\nMy future career aspiration is to become a Training Officer in an audit firm to train, mentor and develop aspiring CAs and RAs. I also aspire to become a University Lecturing to build a solid foundation for future CAs and RAs. This will also afford me opportunity to further my studies and obtain my Masters and PHD in Auditing.\n\nI would also love to partner with one of the small to medium sized firms, to contribute to the growth and success of the firm. This will also assist me to learn more about running a business and maybe, one day I will see myself having my own firm in the near future to assist the country in creating employment opportunities.\n\nAt first my motivation to pursue a career as a CA (SA) and in Auditing was all about money since I have always been told that CAs have money. But, throughout my training contract, I started to love my work and gained a better understanding about the Auditing and Assurance field. The impact that my work has on the lives of ordinary South Africans was another thing that pushed me to become the professional that I am today.\n\nI also like how the profession maintains ethics at a high level and doesn\u2019t compromise on ethics. This has made me enjoy what I do, knowing that any unethical behaviour in this profession has its consequences.\n\nMy experience on the ADP was that the programme is a real-life experience programme as it focuses on the day-to-day activities of an auditor. The documentation that you are required to prepare requires you to apply yourself and think out of the box. Getting the necessary exposure to the entire audit process really assists in achieving most of the competencies and capabilities.\n\nThrough the programme, I obtained an advanced knowledge about what I do on a day-to-day basis. I am also able to respond to technical queries and issues faced by my team at work and I am now able to provide responses that are technically sound and resolve the grey areas.\n\nMy message of motivation to aspiring RCAs is that you do register, and you won\u2019t regret it. If you see yourself growing and staying in the auditing and assurance field, then this is the programme for you. The knowledge you will gain out of this programme will come in handy in what you want to achieve in your career.\n\nFor those who have registered on the programme, it is very possible to complete the programme. I managed to complete the programme while I have a very demanding job and less time to spare on the programme. But, because I know what I want to achieve on this programme and I have strong belief in myself, I did all I could to ensure that I complete my report and meet my submission deadlines. I know it is not an easy journey, but complaining will not get the job done. It will rather cause delays in your journey.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-627ff7e\" data-id=\"627ff7e\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7ffaa47 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"7ffaa47\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/zakhele-.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-586\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_7ffaa47_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tZakhele Nyandeni\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 24 July 2023 ORA: Vianca Pretorius<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-7ffaa47\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_7ffaa47_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/zakhele-.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-586\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Zakhele Nyandeni<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 24 July 2023 ORA: Vianca Pretorius<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI completed my studies at the University of the Witwatersrand. Outside of Auditing I have a passion for football.\n\nI aspire to continue to contribute to the growth of BDO and for BDO Financial Services to be amongst the top assurance providers in the banking industry.\n\nMy motivation to pursue a career in Auditing was to provide growth and create more top assurance providers in financial services and to contribute to the continued growth and transformation in the auditing industry.\n\nMy experience on the ADP was that it allowed me to develop a broader understanding of my responsibilities as an auditor. The programme further developed my consideration of how to tackle complex auding issues and considerations of the importance of soft skills within an audit.\n\nMy message to aspiring candidates is that the ADP is important in your career journey, to reflect on the day-to-day work that you do as an auditor. I would encourage candidates to use the time on the programme to reflect on areas you can improve on and to understand how the requirements of each auditing standard assists you to reach the correct audit conclusions.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-7eb1f45 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"7eb1f45\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-c7afaad\" data-id=\"c7afaad\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2d5660b elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"2d5660b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shannon.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-553\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_2d5660b_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tShannon Fernandes\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 24 July 2023 ORA: Brendan Robinson<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-2d5660b\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_2d5660b_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/shannon.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-553\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Shannon Fernandes<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 24 July 2023 ORA: Brendan Robinson<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI embarked on my post-schooling studies at the University of South Africa where I obtained my Bcompt Financial Accounting Degree with distinction and subsequently completed my Post Graduate Diploma in Applied Accounting Sciences.\n\nOutside of auditing, I am a happily married wife and a devoted mother who cherishes my family above all else. My time away from the office is fully dedicated to them. Being family-oriented is at the core of who I am, and my 15-month-old son holds a special place in my heart. I would describe myself as an outgoing and cheerful individual, always eager to explore and experience the beauty that the world has to offer. Travelling is one of my passions and I also love to savour delicious meals. I find joy in shopping and spoiling others.\n\nI am deeply committed to continuous personal growth and development. Recently, I had the honour of being appointed as a director of PKF Pretoria, a position that fills me with enthusiasm and determination. Stagnation is not in my nature as I am a strong advocate of being a lifelong learner, constantly staying abreast of industry trends and maintaining a global perspective.\n\nAs I progress in my career, my next milestone is to strive towards becoming a Managing Director, where I can take on greater responsibilities and contribute to the success of the organisation. However, my true passion lies in mentoring and guiding others who aspire to follow a similar path. I want to support and empower individuals, nurturing their potential and helping them achieve their professional goals.\n\nI envision a future where the perception of auditing is changed to not only focus on the financials but also foster strong connections by building meaningful relationships and prioritising the well-being of clients and colleagues. I aspire to bring a more personalised touch to the industry, and I firmly believe that by focusing on people, we can elevate the auditing experience and create a positive impact.\n\nMy fascination with the financial industry made becoming a Chartered Accountant an obvious and fulfilling goal. While many individuals may explore various paths, I firmly chose to start and continue my journey in Auditing and further pursue becoming a Registered Auditor. My passion for people drives me forward, making every step of the journey rewarding and fulfilling.\n\nMy message to aspiring candidates is that if you have a passion for Auditing and aspire to excel as a Registered Auditor in the industry, the ADP is an excellent opportunity for growth and learning as a stepping stone to your career goals. Embrace the experience and be open to continuous learning. Remember that every challenge you encounter is an opportunity to enhance your skills and become a more competent professional. Stay committed to your goals and with dedication and hard work, you can achieve success in your auditing career.

Outside of work, I am involved in social upliftment and non-profit work. I am part of an organisation that\u2019s focused on humanitarian aid and disaster relief. Through my exposure in the finance sector, I was able to contribute constructively to the compliance aspects of the organisation.\n\nI also enjoy mentoring where I have assisted individuals improve their quality of life by sponsoring them academically as well as financially towards a specific outcome.\n\nAfter successfully completing the ADP, I will be looking at directorship opportunities in auditing and thereafter consider entrepreneurship opportunities that may present themselves. The private equity market has always interested me.\n\nThe initial stage of being a CA(SA) presents many opportunities across almost every sector with both local and international opportunities and therefore a great qualification to have.\n\nI completed my articles at a medium sized firm, in which the client base I worked on was SME focused. This provided me with a view on business in the micro and macro economy in which we operate and provided a solid foundation for any roles after my training contract.\n\nIn the Auditing profession, I enjoy the networking opportunities as well as the opportunity to work with various businesses at various levels. I do believe auditing contributes positively to the economy and the demand for auditing related services will continue to increase.\n\nMy experience on the ADP is that the detailed input required is a positive study of the various regulations that we abide by in our everyday duties. Some of the tasks and competencies directed me to areas of improvement in my professional responsibilities.\nAs the programme develops, I would like to see it becoming more digitalised. My ORA and firm have been instrumental in completing my articles, CA qualification and now the ADP programme. It helps to have a dynamic and understanding team of auditors supporting your growth.\n\nMy message to aspiring candidates is that auditing creates a lot of local and international opportunities and is a great career path. The opportunity to work with various business, network and build a client base does not confine you to a desk. Although the career is chaotic at times, in the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity (Sun-Tzu).\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-af081ad\" data-id=\"af081ad\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fff4f08 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"fff4f08\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/thabiso.jpg\" title=\"thabiso\" alt=\"thabiso\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_fff4f08_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThabiso Ramokali\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 24 July 2023 ORA: Samuel Mhlongo<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-fff4f08\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_fff4f08_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/thabiso.jpg\" title=\"thabiso\" alt=\"thabiso\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Thabiso Ramokali<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 24 July 2023 ORA: Samuel Mhlongo<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t I completed my Grade 12 (Matric) in 2008 at Letsatsing Science High School in Mahikeng, North West. I then went on to complete my Bachelor\u2019s degree in 2009 at North West University-Mahikeng Campus and then moved to Potchefstroom Campus in 2012 to do my CTA and passed the same year.\n\nSoccer is my life outside auditing and long distance running. I aspire to be one of the best auditors in the world, open my own assurance firm and assist small and medium sized businesses in improving their operational productivity, mitigating risk, and ensuring compliance with applicable legislations and frameworks.\n\nThe kind of exposure that I have received during my training contract tenure made me realise that I do have passion for auditing. Being the person that I am, who likes to work in a team and who has strong leadership skills, it made it easier for me to fall in love with auditing and to continue remaining relevant to the profession.\n\nAt first the ADP was a bit scary as I was worried that I will not attain all the necessary competencies at the end of the programme. However, during the process I had to align myself to what is needed to attain all necessary competencies. The ADP assisted me to polish up on some of the auditing principles and skills needed by the profession. It also exposed me to and assisted me with presentation skills, especially to external stakeholders such as Audit Committees.\n\nMy message to aspiring candidates is that \u201cnever stop learning, for when we stop learning, we stop growing.\u201d The road will not be easy as it will be demanding to obtain all competencies, however, it will be worth it at the end of the journey.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-c0319e6\" data-id=\"c0319e6\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5aeac31 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"5aeac31\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/collins.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-587\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_5aeac31_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCollins Malatji\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 01 June 2023 ORA: Victor Bakali<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-5aeac31\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_5aeac31_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/collins.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-587\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Collins Malatji<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 01 June 2023 ORA: Victor Bakali<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI completed my Undergraduate degree at the University of Limpopo and then completed my CTA at the University of South Africa (UNISA). Outside of Auditing, my passion is in film production, helping people and digital transformation.\nI pursued a career in the Auditing profession because there are multiple areas in which one can develop within the auditing environment. It is a platform where one can gather expertise in different areas and sectors and be able to gather information and provide solutions to businesses.\n\nThe ADP programme provided a platform to reflect on the knowledge gathered throughout the period in auditing and identify gaps that required intervention. I was eager to complete the program throughout and motivated to keep up the audit standard. The programme enhanced my analytical skills, professional writing skills and the understanding of the role I need to perform in the professional auditing environment.\n\nMy message to aspiring candidates is that through the program, you will get to understand the professional and auditing requirements at another level. As a candidate, you get to identify knowledge gaps and what to consider in audit. One gets to enhance their passion for auditing and uplift their professional skills.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-ce1de85 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ce1de85\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-b41c316\" data-id=\"b41c316\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b9320b8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"b9320b8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/kyle-1.jpg\" title=\"kyle (1)\" alt=\"kyle (1)\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_b9320b8_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tKyle Watson\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 12 May 2023 ORA: Kurt Holdstock<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-b9320b8\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_b9320b8_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/kyle-1.jpg\" title=\"kyle (1)\" alt=\"kyle (1)\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Kyle Watson<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 12 May 2023 ORA: Kurt Holdstock<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t I studied through UNISA part time while working full time, completing both my degree and postgraduate diploma through UNISA.

Keep on keeping on.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-4889b08\" data-id=\"4889b08\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-799983c elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"799983c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/khutso.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-591\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_799983c_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tKhutso Kgaphola\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 12 May 2023 ORA: Izak van der Walt<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-799983c\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_799983c_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/khutso.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-591\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Khutso Kgaphola<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 12 May 2023 ORA: Izak van der Walt<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI completed both my undergraduate degree and CTA at UNISA. Outside audit, I love training and mentoring others and community development.\n\nMy aim from the outset has always been to one day become a skilled auditor and open an audit practice that will provide assurance work to clients. Thus, this career path served as the foundation for my lifelong ambition.\n\nThe ADP was a good review of the auditing standards and technical aspects in comparison to the day-to-day running of an audit. It also allows you to reflect on your progress in addressing and understanding the various auditing standards and identifying areas for improvement.\n\nMy experience with the programme was that I found it challenging in the sense that I needed to align my work responsibilities to the ADP programme. This programme demanded extensive level of discipline to get POE in order and attain all the relevant competencies.\n\nThrough the programme I was able to develop skills into the revised auditing standards which assist in my day-to-day operations. There were some of the standards that I was not practically exposed to, the programme enabled me to fully understand all the standards relevant to the audit.\n\nMy message to aspiring candidates is that this is a wonderful opportunity to take responsibility to gain a deeper understanding of the complete audit process from beginning to end, and of the auditing standards. The programme also provides an opportunity to gain additional professional business skills as you take on more responsibilities. Just join the programme and I promise you will not regret it. \u201cIt always seems impossible until it\u2019s done\u201d.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-ae68ca0\" data-id=\"ae68ca0\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f320837 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"f320837\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/reinette.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-848\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_f320837_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tReinette De Beer\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 31 March 2023 ORA: Leon van der Merwe<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-f320837\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_f320837_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/reinette.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-848\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Reinette De Beer<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 31 March 2023 ORA: Leon van der Merwe<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI started working at my current firm straight out of High School at the age of 18. I studied part time through UNISA and qualified as a CA(SA) seven years later.\n\nFor the past six years, I have been gathering my audit hours and I am very relieved to have finally achieved my goal set at the beginning of this journey. My future career aspiration is to expand our firm and to supply guidance to our team as best as I can; learn from those before me and pass on to those behind me.\n\nMy family is my number one priority and I love spending time with them. I am grateful for the way that this career path has assisted me to add value to their lives \u2013 whether it is contributing together with my husband or setting an example for my two beautiful girls. I also love reading and exploring innovative ways to improve the management and systems of our firm. I always ask myself if whether what we do and how we do it, is the most efficient, value-adding way there is and if not, we need to reconsider!\n\nMy motivation to pursue a career in auditing was inspired by my sister who once told me that I would love this profession as soon as I am exposed to it, and she was spot on. It fits my personality perfectly and I have loved my job from day one. I plan to remain in the profession for as long as I am blessed to make a difference in many entrepreneurs\u2019 businesses and being part of their journeys.\n\nThe ADP was much harder than I initially realised. It demands great discipline, organisational skills and self-reflection and being able to put all of the above into words. The ADP definitely enhanced my discipline and self-reflection skills \u2013 it forces you to be honest about yourself and your shortcomings, but at the same time motivates you to overcome that so that you can be the best version of yourself to yourself and others.\n\nMy message to aspiring candidates is that I would encourage other candidates to be indifferent to the ADP. It takes much more time, effort, discipline and tears to get it done than you might think. It is a vigorous process, but definitely worth it in the end.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-26fc8cf\" data-id=\"26fc8cf\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e783262 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"e783262\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/johan.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-844\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_e783262_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tJohan Van der Walt\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 31 March 2023 ORA: Pietman van der Walt<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-e783262\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_e783262_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/johan.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-844\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Johan Van der Walt<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 31 March 2023 ORA: Pietman van der Walt<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI completed my undergraduate degree at North-West University (Pukke) and my Postgraduate Diploma in Accounting Science at UNISA. Outside of Auditing, I enjoy exercising mostly jogging and trail runs with my wife. Looking ahead I aspire to become a director in a firm or open my own firm. No matter what the future holds I want to keep developing and broadening my horizons.\n\nDuring my articles and in my personal life I had the privilege to frequently be involved in discussions with an experienced and seasoned director. His insights, knowledge and guidance not only on the profession but on life provided me with a lot of motivation to remain in the profession past articles, but also to pursue the profession even further to ultimately register as a registered auditor.\n\nHaving studied and gone through articles for a short period of 8 years I did not think that another 18-month program was for me. After completion of the program, I believe the ADP program is necessary and adds a lot of value to you as an individual if you engage with the program. The program facilitates a comprehensive engagement with the auditing standards, specifically on the technical aspects that are not necessarily part of a standard audit or running thereof. The program helps to broaden and solidify your understanding and interpretation of various auditing standards and the implementation thereof, it also helps to identify improvement or focus areas. The skills you develop during the program are not only valuable, but they are also necessary.\n\nThe most important resource that my ORA and firm provided me with was their time, to answer countless questions and to provide guidance to assist me in gaining the necessary exposure and competency.\n\nMy message to aspiring candidates is to not wait until you feel you are ready because that day might never come, you have to view the program as part of your development and not as a final test. Engage with the program, it can either be an administrative burden or a great learning and development opportunity. You have control over the value it provides.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-1d9d5b9 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1d9d5b9\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-528e7d3\" data-id=\"528e7d3\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4dac160 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"4dac160\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/rikus.jpg\" title=\"rikus\" alt=\"rikus\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_4dac160_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t Rikus Van der Merwe\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 07 March 2023 ORA: Saffiyah Bootha<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-4dac160\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_4dac160_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/rikus.jpg\" title=\"rikus\" alt=\"rikus\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\"> Rikus Van der Merwe<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 07 March 2023 ORA: Saffiyah Bootha<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI studied at the University of Pretoria.

Outside of auditing, I love to challenge myself, whether it is travelling to new places to explore, or cooking a complex dish, the experience of trying something different is what drives me.\n\nI am appreciative of the exposure that I received during my training contract, which made me realise that I do have something to contribute. I hope to continue to make an impact on the profession. I have a strong understanding of auditing principles and I want to continue to build on my knowledge of audit &amp; accounting. Being in the audit profession is a fast-paced environment and there is always something new to learn. What energises me is teaching junior staff and serving clients the best way I can. Furthermore, auditors are at the forefront of current affairs and this impacts our work directly. Being an auditor is a commitment to lifelong learning and I love the fact that it gives us an opportunity to always be challenged.\n\nMy experience on the Audit Development Programme further enhanced my skills of learning principles and applying my knowledge to a situation. Furthermore, it provided me with a platform to solidify my audit technical abilities and assist the firm in increasing the quality on our audit files.\n\nMy message to aspiring candidates is to note that the program is demanding, and my suggestion is to take it 1 competency at a time. Develop a daily or weekly routine where you dedicate uninterrupted time to document your evidence in your PoE.\n\nGoodluck to all those who are embarking on this journey!\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-739014d\" data-id=\"739014d\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8f5b3aa elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"8f5b3aa\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/simone.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-863\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_8f5b3aa_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t Simone Cardoso\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 02 December 2022 ORA: Shaun Nurick<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-8f5b3aa\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_8f5b3aa_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/simone.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-863\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">\t Simone Cardoso<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 02 December 2022 ORA: Shaun Nurick<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI completed my undergraduate degree in the Bachelor of Accounting Sciences at the University of Witwatersrand and my Post Graduate Diploma (CTA) at the University of South Africa (UNISA). Outside of Auditing, I enjoy hiking, travelling, spending quality time with my family, meeting new people, trying out new activities and things (I\u2019d say that I am very adventurous), staying active and I love dancing. My career aspiration is to remain in audit as, for some reason unbeknown to humanity, I LOVE auditing! \u2013 I aspire to assume a role as an Audit Technical and Quality Partner.\n\nI would attribute my decision to remain in the profession to the passion which I hold over auditing, in particular the technical intricacies of auditing and the ability thereon to transfer this knowledge to others.\n\nMy experience on the programme was that it was extremely taxing, however, it was ultimately stimulating in the greater picture. I learnt a lot and enjoyed the challenges faced including meeting milestones. I found it quite gratifying being able to achieve each competency and the firm and my role within the firm, as a Senior Audit Technical Manager, provided me the opportunity to practically meet my competencies.\n\nI am fortunate to be in an Audit Technical support role within my organisation and wish to stay in a similar role in the future. I put in the utmost effort to utilise this program to better inform myself of the technical areas which, within a general external audit role, I would not have been exposed to. In my role however, I have been able to apply the skills learnt within my designated responsibilities and tasks and further, I was able to transfer this knowledge to not only more junior staff, but to all levels of management within my firm.\n\nMy message to aspiring RCAs is that I believe that what you put in is directly proportional to what you get out. If you are simply going to complete the program for the sake of becoming eligible to register as an RA, you would be doing a discredit to the program and ultimately will most likely not be equipped with the relevant knowledge to comfortably climb the ladder within the profession and in particular, the transitional period into a partnership role will likely seem more daunting.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-87de826\" data-id=\"87de826\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c00d307 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"c00d307\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dorcas.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-874\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_c00d307_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDorcas Nhlapo\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 10 November 2022 ORA: Thomas Geza<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-c00d307\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_c00d307_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/dorcas.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-874\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Dorcas Nhlapo<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 10 November 2022 ORA: Thomas Geza<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI completed my undergraduate degree and post graduate honors degree at the University of Johannesburg. Outside of Auditing I\u2019m a mom to a super saiyan and wife to a super-hero, I love spending time with family and travelling to different countries, provinces and cities.\n\nAs our family saying goes, \u201cWe aspire to inspire before we expire.\u201d And that is to help groom one CA at a time. This is the reason why I\u2019ve stayed in auditing this long, from the days I walked into the big four firms, my aspiration was to become partner and to this day that has not changed.\n\nMy experience on the ADP programme was that of reflection, on all of the experience I\u2019d accumulated over the years and the areas where I\u2019d consciously made a decision to be independent, ethical and to deliver quality services, not only to the clients that I serve, but also to the people that I led and those that lead me. I always ensure that I give of my best and am the first point of call for any technical matters. Putting together the evidence required for the Portfolio of Evidence (POE) was effortless, with the relentless support I received from both my current and previous firm and my ORA. I\u2019m truly grateful for this opportunity to add two more letters to my designation.\n\nMy message of motivation to aspiring candidates, is that the road less travelled is often most rewarding, no sacrifice goes unnoticed, and you will indeed reap the rewards of your hard work.

My interests outside of work mainly relate to spending time with my husband and family. My hobbies include long distance running, scrap booking, religious activities and baking.\nIn my current role, I work with many audit partners of the firm. I also enjoy teaching and have a passion for training people and work is such a position within the firm. I have a wide variety of responsibilities, and this helps to broaden my knowledge of other areas in addition to Auditing.\n\nI was inspired by my father to pursue an auditing career. Since I was a small child, he always said that he saw me in this career, as I am a diligent, conscientious individual with a clear eye for detail. In high school, I developed a love for accounting which further highlighted this as a career for me. My passion for this career grew throughout my education years.\n\nAs I entered into the profession, I continued to grow, and the profession fitted well with my personal personality and skill set. I am focused and committed to my own development, and I value opportunities to connect with those around me. I have a very high moral and ethical standard and carrying out my work with quality and due care is a priority. I am not afraid to take initiative and I enjoy overcoming challenges placed before me. I strive to be reliable, and I am hard working with a positive attitude. I have a soft, compassionate personality, while at the same time knowing when to stand my ground, I have a willingness to learn and a desire to achieve my goals. The auditing profession therefore allows me to live out my traits and passion.\n\nThe ADP programme was an amazing opportunity in which I grew and broadened my knowledge on the ISA\u2019s as well as the whole audit process. The ADP Program brought the audit process that we carry out on each audit and connected it perfectly with the ISA\u2019s. The ADP programme was like building a puzzle, and once all the pieces were put together (the ADP Programme) the whole picture of an audit and how each process from the planning, execution, and finalisation phase and how they connected suddenly became so much clearer. A light bulb inside of me just exploded and my passion for auditing expanded as everything just started making sense. The biggest lesson that I have learnt on the program is that one can never stop learning. The auditing and accounting profession entails such a wide variety of sectors, industries, rules, standards, requirements and the list goes on and on. Every single day, I learnt something new, whether it being technical, administrative, professional, or even personal.\n\nMy message to aspiring candidates is to take a leap of faith and just do it! Remember to be a success takes hard work, you need to be aware of what you are looking for and then finding opportunities and developing in that role. This programme will help you achieve this and so much more. Be the best you that you can be on a personal and professional level and never cease to take an opportunity that comes to you.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-8a65ef3\" data-id=\"8a65ef3\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9fde59c elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"9fde59c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/paddington.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-885\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_9fde59c_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPaddington Muskwe\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 02 December 2022 ORA: Shaun Nurick<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-9fde59c\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_9fde59c_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/paddington.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-885\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Paddington Muskwe<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 02 December 2022 ORA: Shaun Nurick<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI completed my undergraduate degree in the Bachelor of Accounting Sciences at the University of Witwatersrand and my Post Graduate Diploma (CTA) at the University of South Africa (UNISA). Outside of Auditing, I enjoy hiking, travelling, spending quality time with my family, meeting new people, trying out new activities and things (I\u2019d say that I am very adventurous), staying active and I love dancing. My career aspiration is to remain in audit as, for some reason unbeknown to humanity, I LOVE auditing! \u2013 I aspire to assume a role as an Audit Technical and Quality Partner.\n\nI would attribute my decision to remain in the profession to the passion which I hold over auditing, in particular the technical intricacies of auditing and the ability thereon to transfer this knowledge to others.\n\nMy experience on the programme was that it was extremely taxing, however, it was ultimately stimulating in the greater picture. I learnt a lot and enjoyed the challenges faced including meeting milestones. I found it quite gratifying being able to achieve each competency and the firm and my role within the firm, as a Senior Audit Technical Manager, provided me the opportunity to practically meet my competencies.\n\nI am fortunate to be in an Audit Technical support role within my organisation and wish to stay in a similar role in the future. I put in the utmost effort to utilise this program to better inform myself of the technical areas which, within a general external audit role, I would not have been exposed to. In my role however, I have been able to apply the skills learnt within my designated responsibilities and tasks and further, I was able to transfer this knowledge to not only more junior staff, but to all levels of management within my firm.\n\nMy message to aspiring RCAs is that I believe that what you put in is directly proportional to what you get out. If you are simply going to complete the program for the sake of becoming eligible to register as an RA, you would be doing a discredit to the program and ultimately will most likely not be equipped with the relevant knowledge to comfortably climb the ladder within the profession and in particular, the transitional period into a partnership role will likely seem more daunting.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-31b7dfd\" data-id=\"31b7dfd\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-acc87c0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"acc87c0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/carla.png\" title=\"carla\" alt=\"carla\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_acc87c0_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCarla Van Coller\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 05 July 2022 ORA: Ananda Blignaut-de Waal<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-acc87c0\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_acc87c0_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/carla.png\" title=\"carla\" alt=\"carla\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Carla Van Coller<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 05 July 2022 ORA: Ananda Blignaut-de Waal<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI studied at the University of Johannesburg where I obtained my BCom Accounting Degree. I then obtained my Post Graduate Diploma in Applied Accounting Sciences studied at UNISA. My passion is to make a difference in the lives of others.\n\nI was motivated to stay in the Auditing profession as I enjoy the challenges that each audit engagement brings, being able to provide clients with good client services and working with trainees to develop them in successful professionals.\n\nMy experience on the ADP programme was positive, as it assisted in my professional development and assisted me in delivering audit files to our firm's partners of a high quality. The skills I developed that are valuable to me in my current role and expected future roles, is the ability to empower trainees, in developing their professional and technical skills.\n\nMy message to aspiring candidates is that anything is possible if you put your mind to it and one should never give up on your dreams. The ADP programme is very time consuming but if you continuously update your portfolio of evidence, it makes the process easier and it's definitely worth it in the end.

Outside of Auditing I enjoy spending time with my family and being outdoors.\n\nA small number of people really know what they want to do for the rest of their lives at that young age, but most know they do not want to stay in audit. This was not the case for me and so I remained in audit to obtain more experience and see what types of engagements and clients I like most. I realised that being able to provide assurance to users of financial statements can be rewarding. The impact and importance thereof are easily overlooked, and that is exactly where I want to contribute.\n\nThe additional experience obtained after articles and being on the programme is something money can't buy and was invaluable to me.\n\nWhen studying, you focus a lot on the theory of the ISAs. When you start auditing in practice it becomes part of you, a second nature. During the programme I was able to reconcile the theory and technical aspects with the practice and that added irreplaceable value to my personal development.\n\nMy message to aspiring candidates is that the process might seem overwhelming at first, as many worthwhile things tend to be, but it is important to remember your goal and just get started! Engagement by engagement and week by week, you will have it done before you know it.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-a34b4ba\" data-id=\"a34b4ba\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-26ede95 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"26ede95\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jannie.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4635\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jannie.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jannie-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jannie-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_26ede95_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tJannie Van Zyl\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 31 May 2022 ORA: Melissa Fouche<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-26ede95\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_26ede95_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jannie.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4635\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jannie.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jannie-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jannie-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Jannie Van Zyl<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 31 May 2022 ORA: Melissa Fouche<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI completed my BCom Chartered Accountancy degree at North-West University (Pukke) and completed my Postgraduate Diploma in Accounting Science (CTA 2) at Unisa.

My future career aspiration is to be part of an executive team that allows me to merge my technical ability and skill, with my love of developing and mentoring people.\n\nThroughout my training contract, I was fortunate enough to be surrounded by professionals who had a deep passion for the auditing profession, and who gladly shared their insight and knowledge frequently. Thus began my own love for the profession, and when the opportunity to step into a managerial role presented itself, I felt it would be a great base upon which to grow my own knowledge and skill.\n\nI found the program to be an excellent way to become familiar with the ISAs in a way that I previously hadn't been. The professional skills I developed and cultivated during the program are ones that will continue to benefit me regardless of my role, now and in the future.

Outside of Auditing, I love music and all things arts and culture. I love supporting our creative industry and going to watch musicals and shows. I also like to do a trail run now and then. I have experience outside of auditing but returned to the profession as it was more rewarding for me. My career aspirations are to start my own firm delivering audit services to small and medium sized businesses.\n\nThe ADP was a good review of the auditing standards and technical aspects in comparison to the day-to-day running of an audit. It also allows you to reflect on your progress in addressing and understanding the various auditing standards and identifying areas for improvement.\n\nThe programme expects you to be able to do the audit from start to finish, especially all processes involved when accepting a new client. You gain a lot of confidence in the auditing process by only consulting on more complex matters and taking responsibility for all aspects. The importance of developing soft skills and building client trust was also something that was highlighted during the programme.\n\nMy message to aspiring candidates is that this is a wonderful opportunity to take responsibility to gain a deeper understanding of the complete audit process from beginning to end, and of the auditing standards, as well as to gain additional professional business skills as you take on more responsibilities. There are so many opportunities that can come from completing this programme. Don't sell yourself short.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-1dca69f elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1dca69f\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-6fd3d84\" data-id=\"6fd3d84\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6e8938c elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"6e8938c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/tarisai.jpg\" title=\"tarisai\" alt=\"tarisai\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_6e8938c_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTarisai Takariwa\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 03 December 2021 ORA: Don Luthando Saunders<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-6e8938c\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_6e8938c_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/tarisai.jpg\" title=\"tarisai\" alt=\"tarisai\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Tarisai Takariwa<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 03 December 2021 ORA: Don Luthando Saunders<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI think I chose audit and audit chose me. I believe it is the best job in the world, you get to learn about many organisations, travel, meet and work with different people and truly help bring about positive change. My daily responsibilities as an RA ensures that organisations and personnel are held accountable. I remained in the profession beyond completion of my training contract as I have a passion for developing aspiring CAs and RAs and assisting them realise their dreams.\n\nThe Audit Development Programme is an enabler! The programme helped me stretch beyond my comfort zone and developed me into a space where I feel very confident, well prepared and fully equipped to discharge my responsibilities as a Registered Auditor in any environment. The programme has positioned me to excel and I am now well-oiled and fully prepared to add value to various stakeholders.\n\nI have learned critical competences including leading high performing audit teams.\n\nMy message to anybody considering registering on the ADP is that the ADP is an essential programme for any aspiring RA. It prepares and equips you with everything you need to be that rare breed of an auditor in any environment. The skills and competences gained through the programme become the roots that one requires in this dynamic audit environment.

My father did not have the opportunity to attend University but told me that he would have liked to study accounting\/auditing. This together with the availability of jobs for chartered accountants made me pursue an auditing career. Once I finished my trainee contract at ASL Incorporated I realised that I valued what the firm stood for and the opportunity presented itself for advancement, which I took and have not looked back since.\n\nThe program has its challenges in the sense that it is quite a lot of paperwork which does feel cumbersome at instances. However other parts of the program made me reflect on how much I have learnt prior to the program as well as during the program and made me appreciate the field more.\n\nI would not describe the program as fun and in saying that I understand that it is easy to become negative during the program. However now having completed the program I have added to the value I can bring to a firm as well as the likelihood of my future aspirations being a success.

Being a Registered Auditor is not a decision it\u2019s a lifestyle, live it from day one.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-aac8538\" data-id=\"aac8538\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-95ff30e elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"95ff30e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/sindisiwe.jpg\" title=\"sindisiwe\" alt=\"sindisiwe\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_95ff30e_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSindisiwe Zama\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 24 August 2021 ORA: Donny Mampa<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-95ff30e\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_95ff30e_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/sindisiwe.jpg\" title=\"sindisiwe\" alt=\"sindisiwe\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Sindisiwe Zama<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 24 August 2021 ORA: Donny Mampa<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI was introduced to the concept of being an RA by my Father who is a CA(SA), RA. He taught me that being an Auditor is a position of great honor as you are, in essence, offering your trust as a service to the general public. Having a person rely on your trust is a very privileged position to be in, and a great responsibility.\n\nTo those who have registered on the programme, congratulations! You have chosen an honorable profession to become a part of. It can seem overwhelming at times, but it is important to take it one day and one engagement at a time. To those who are undecided on registering, I say that being an Auditor at a professional level is rewarding as it allows one to show not only your technical ability but also your ability to adapt and overcome. The wait is worth the reward.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-08bfc19\" data-id=\"08bfc19\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ba67a3a elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"ba67a3a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/peter.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4685\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/peter.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/peter-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/peter-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_ba67a3a_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPeter Serite\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 24 August 2021 ORA: Adele West<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-ba67a3a\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_ba67a3a_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/peter.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4685\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/peter.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/peter-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/peter-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Peter Serite<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 24 August 2021 ORA: Adele West<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe support received from the firm was continuous two-way feedback and a real investment of time, effort and resources to upskill and mentor me.

He taught me that being an Auditor is a position of great honor as you are, in essence, offering your trust as a service to the general public. Having a person rely on your trust is a very privileged position to be in, and a great responsibility.\n\nTo those who have registered on the programme, congratulations! You have chosen an honorable profession to become a part of. It can seem overwhelming at times, but it is important to take it one day and one engagement at a time. To those who are undecided on registering, I say that being an Auditor at a professional level is rewarding as it allows one to show not only your technical ability but also your ability to adapt and overcome. The wait is worth the reward.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-09cf73a\" data-id=\"09cf73a\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7153865 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"7153865\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jamie.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4626\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jamie.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jamie-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jamie-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_7153865_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tJamie Schlebusch\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 08 July 2021 ORA: Shaun Nurick<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-7153865\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_7153865_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jamie.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4626\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jamie.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jamie-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jamie-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Jamie Schlebusch<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 08 July 2021 ORA: Shaun Nurick<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI went into this career blindly not knowing where it would lead to.

One day during a career guidance in grade 10 someone came and spoke of a career of a Chartered Accountant; I knew then that it was what I wanted to study when I go to varsity. When I was at first year of varsity I learnt more about the career, the fact that I had choices of different careers within the profession. I developed a passion for auditing when I was completing articles. The reason I stayed in the profession after completing articles was that I knew that I could contribute more to the success of the firm and make a difference to my clients through my work and advise.\n\nMy Portfolio of Evidence was a success because my ORA dedicated her time in reviewing my reports. Her guidance and mentoring made my ADP a success. The firm assisted me by providing work which enabled be in achieving the competences on the programme.

I would advise CA (SA)\u2019s within the audit profession to enrol for this program to sharpen their auditing skills and qualify as RA\u2019s.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-5f05816\" data-id=\"5f05816\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8641a16 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"8641a16\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/nicole.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4618\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/nicole.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/nicole-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/nicole-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_8641a16_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNicole Channon\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 30 October 2020 ORA: Eugene Samuel George Birch<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-8641a16\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_8641a16_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/nicole.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4618\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/nicole.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/nicole-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/nicole-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Nicole Channon<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 30 October 2020 ORA: Eugene Samuel George Birch<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDuring my training contract, I was mostly involved in the audit department within the firm.

The ADP requires the same skillset and therefore the ADP and my position in the audit firm had a symbiotic relationship.\n\nThe ADP takes time, and one needs to be disciplined and remain motivated. My advice is to find an ORA who will work with you to assist you in producing a fantastic portfolio of evidence. Take pride in your portfolio and view the ADP as a chance to upskill yourself.

In an auditing practice you deal with queries and challenges almost on a daily basis; whereas I might have been limited in this regard in commerce. The programme showed me my strengths and weaknesses, and afforded me an opportunity to improve on my weaknesses and grow into a better and more well-rounded CA and future RA. \n\nAs auditors, we assist the receiver of revenue, the society and other stakeholders to uphold their purpose. To be a part of this gives me a sense of being a part of something greater than myself.\n\nThe thrill of working in the fast-paced audit environment as well as the opportunities to work on a diverse range of clients and with colleagues from different walks of life are two of the many reasons that have made me not leaving auditing.\n\nApart from this, training and assisting future CAs to meet their full potential gives me a sense of fulfilment. Watching their growth and development under my mentorship are some of my greatest achievements.\n\nThe programme, though challenging, was extremely comprehensive. Not only did it teach me a significant amount about audit but it also taught me about myself. It assisted me to grow as an auditor and as an individual.\n\nI have already started encouraging other CAs to participate in the programme and will continue doing so. I feel that in order to grow as an auditor, the ADP is a must. Before I started with this programme I thought I knew everything that there was to know about the ISAs. However, after completing the programme I realised that there is a lot more that I have learnt and a lot more that can be learnt.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-eedde05\" data-id=\"eedde05\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b7bec5a elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"b7bec5a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/alida-.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4610\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/alida-.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/alida--300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/alida--150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_b7bec5a_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAlida Smit\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 15 November 2018 ORA: Jana Duvenage<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-b7bec5a\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_b7bec5a_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/alida-.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4610\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/alida-.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/alida--300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/alida--150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Alida Smit<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 15 November 2018 ORA: Jana Duvenage<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAt the time I finished my articles I was not yet sure what I wanted to do or where I should go. I decided that I am going to do the ADP and qualify as an RA as that was my ultimate goal when I started studying - that would also keep the different career options open. Also, in my view, the title \u201cRA\u201d is one that people look up to and it creates trust. I found the programme and its structure very good as it teaches you the responsibility of what it would mean when you have to sign the audit opinion one day. To compile the Portfolio of Evidence is hard work, but if you document everything after each audit the time constraint is manageable.\n\nI am very happy with my work and the office environment and I would like to stay in the company.

For me, auditors play an integral role in the well-being of businesses as well as the economy as a whole.\n\nAs auditors, we assist the receiver of revenue, the society and other stakeholders to uphold their purpose. To be a part of this gives me a sense of being a part of something greater than myself.\n\nThe thrill of working in the fast-paced audit environment as well as the opportunities to work on a diverse range of clients and with colleagues from different walks of life are two of the many reasons that have made me not leaving auditing.\n\nApart from this, training and assisting future CAs to meet their full potential gives me a sense of fulfilment. Watching their growth and development under my mentorship are some of my greatest achievements.\n\nThe programme, though challenging, was extremely comprehensive. Not only did it teach me a significant amount about audit but it also taught me about myself. It assisted me to grow as an auditor and as an individual.\n\nI have already started encouraging other CAs to participate in the programme and will continue doing so. I feel that in order to grow as an auditor, the ADP is a must. Before I started with this programme I thought I knew everything that there was to know about the ISAs. However, after completing the programme I realised that there is a lot more that I have learnt and a lot more that can be learnt.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-0df7dbc elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"0df7dbc\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-b053e4a\" data-id=\"b053e4a\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-066b3d9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"066b3d9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/altea.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4609\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/altea.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/altea-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/altea-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_066b3d9_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAltea Blignaut\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 29 October 2018 ORA: Michiel Kruger<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-066b3d9\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_066b3d9_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/altea.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4609\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/altea.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/altea-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/altea-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Altea Blignaut<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 29 October 2018 ORA: Michiel Kruger<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tIf you want to remain within the auditing profession, the additional time in relation to the programme should not be seen as a reason to not participate on the ADP. The support of my firm, and especially my ORA, was outstanding in not only helping me to be an auditor but to be an exceptional individual within the field.\n\nI applied for RA registration the day after I received my final sign-off letter for the ADP.\n\nAuditing also allows me the opportunity to interact with many people in the business world who I otherwise would never have had a chance to interact with; and it allows me to gain valuable business insight based on these interactions with them.\n\nI found the programme interesting and I appreciated the fact that the programme ensured that I had hands-on practical experience in the necessary competences before being signed off as a Registered Auditor; as opposed to having only academic knowledge of these competences, which are often not easy to really grasp by only reading about them.\n\nAfter completing the programme, I really do feel more confident about my ability to practice as a Registered Auditor than I would have felt had I only completed a theoretical exam and then registered as an auditor.

Personally, I find auditing fulfilling, and a career that will expose me to different industries within a short period. The programme was an eye opener. When one completes training articles, one always thinks that they have acquired all the skills needed to be a professional and conquer the world. The programme helped me to achieve additional competences and skills that are important and needed for a Registered Auditor to succeed in practice. My future plan is to join one of the small existing auditing firms as a partner and help make that firm competitive in the market.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-743432d elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"743432d\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-690a493\" data-id=\"690a493\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4a876d1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"4a876d1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/muhammad-.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-569\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_4a876d1_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMuhammad Cachalia\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 16 August 2018 ORA: Ramona Clark<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-4a876d1\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_4a876d1_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/muhammad-.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-569\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Muhammad Cachalia<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 16 August 2018 ORA: Ramona Clark<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAuditing is often an overlooked profession that can be very exciting if approached from the right perspective. To be a competent auditor you need a thorough understanding of business systems, finance, accounting frameworks, tax laws, legal requirements and audit frameworks at the same time; and you are constantly required to stay abreast of advancements in all of these fields. This ensures that an auditor always has a good understanding of all the relevant developments in these fields and ensures that auditors generally have great overall business acumen.\n\nAuditing also allows me the opportunity to interact with many people in the business world who I otherwise would never have had a chance to interact with; and it allows me to gain valuable business insight based on these interactions with them.\n\nI found the programme interesting and I appreciated the fact that the programme ensured that I had hands-on practical experience in the necessary competences before being signed off as a Registered Auditor; as opposed to having only academic knowledge of these competences, which are often not easy to really grasp by only reading about them.\n\nAfter completing the programme, I really do feel more confident about my ability to practice as a Registered Auditor than I would have felt had I only completed a theoretical exam and then registered as an auditor. I hope to make a valuable contribution to the audit profession by pioneering new and improved methods of auditing and growing my firm into one of the leading audit firms in the country.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-5ad0ab0\" data-id=\"5ad0ab0\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9a07027 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"9a07027\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4637\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard.png 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_9a07027_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRuan Van der Walt\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 21 November 2023 ORA: Adriana Vorster<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-9a07027\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_9a07027_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4637\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard.png 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Ruan Van der Walt<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 21 November 2023 ORA: Adriana Vorster<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI completed both my undergraduate degree and CTA at the North-West University (Vaal).

My passion outside of Auditing is cars, cars, and more cars.\n\nA family member, a partner from a big four audit firm, once told me that becoming an audit partner is the \u201cultimate business profession to pursue.\u201d This was about 15 years ago, when I was in high school and I did not really understand what an auditor was.\n\nAfter completing my training contract, I began to appreciate the work of an auditor and the great impact it has on protecting the interests of stakeholders.In working as an audit supervisor\/manager level at an auditing firm, I gained invaluable experience that was largely as a result of the support from an audit partner who valued my passion for business and client relations. By allowing me to explore my capabilities, and push the boundaries, I began to enjoy working in the field of auditing, and really started to understand and appreciate the bigger picture of being an auditor.\n\nThe ADP has been a great learning experience as it allowed me to take an inward look at what skills and competencies I had been exposed to, and what required further development. The programme has provided me with the skillset needed to be confident in dealing with clients, and to know that I am on the right path to becoming an audit partner. The programme has also exposed me to soft skills that are fundamental to being in a managerial role.\n\nIt is imperative to have a support structure both within your firm and personal surrounds as there is an investment of time required to complete the reports. I am extremely appreciative of my wife, parents and audit partners that supported me through this journey.\n\nMy message to aspiring candidates is that should you feel that you want to be part of something greater, a profession that serves and protects the interest of the public, then register and be the change that you want to see in the world.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-e7dc13d\" data-id=\"e7dc13d\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cff0756 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"cff0756\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4637\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard.png 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_cff0756_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSherrol Molepo\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 27 November 2023 ORA: Thomas Geza<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-cff0756\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_cff0756_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4637\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard.png 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Sherrol Molepo<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 27 November 2023 ORA: Thomas Geza<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI completed my degree at Rhodes University.\n\nMy motivation to pursue a career in Auditing and remain in the profession after I completed my training contract was encouragement from my firm to register on the Audit Development Programme as they saw my passion in leading audit engagements.

My suggestion is to keep track of your competencies when you are developing these and complete your reports regularly to avoid frustrations that come with trying to remember all the competencies you developed, when finalizing the reports.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-fcf3474\" data-id=\"fcf3474\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a2dc54f elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"a2dc54f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4637\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard.png 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_a2dc54f_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tJohan Carstens\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 13 April 2022 ORA: Wentzel Strydom<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-a2dc54f\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_a2dc54f_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4637\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard.png 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Johan Carstens<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 13 April 2022 ORA: Wentzel Strydom<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI completed my degree at North-West University (Pukke). Outside of Auditing, I enjoy endurance sports (cycling and running) as well as fishing and hunting. I was appointed as a partner at my firm and wish to extend my firms client portfolio.\n\nThe ADP programme is necessary, as one does not walk out of articles ready to sign off on financial statements. You need some time and experience at a higher level to gain the confidence needed to sign off on financial statements. It was however difficult for me to capture all my experience to demonstrate to a reviewer that I would be competent to sign off on audits.\n\nI have been out of articles for 5 years and the program helped me to gain the knowledge and confidence to know that I can perform audits on my own and that I did get the necessary training and experience needed.\n\nMy firm and ORA were crucial in my success. Following my firm\u2019s ADP monitoring visit, the positive outcome was a sign to me that we are doing things correctly and that I was receiving the best training in the correct environment.\n\nMy message to aspiring candidates is to go for it and keep going till you finish.

Additionally, I have observed a prevailing deficiency in sound financial and governance protocols, which are pivotal for organisational success, within the small business landscape. In response, I engage in pro bono consulting initiatives aimed at supporting small business owners in the development of robust governance frameworks and financial procedures. By fostering good governance practices, alignment of direction, and sustainability, these efforts contribute not only to the success of individual enterprises but also hold the potential to enhance the economic development of our country, given that small businesses typically reinvest their returns locally. For mental peace, I spend a portion of my time on classical music with local and church choirs.\n\nAs an advocate of lifelong learning, I am deeply committed to fostering continuous training and development opportunities for professionals within the auditing sphere. This unwavering dedication drives my daily endeavours, urging me and my peers to persevere and firmly remain focused on our collective journey towards greater accomplishments.\n\nWithin the auditing profession, I embrace the opportunity to mentor and nurture a diverse group of young professionals. Our primary objective centres on cultivating robust levels of professional and technical proficiency. Witnessing the evolution of these individuals towards competence brings me immeasurable joy and fulfilment. Moreover, I derive huge satisfaction from the dynamic and ever-evolving nature of our client engagements. Each client presents a unique set of challenges, necessitating adaptive approaches and innovative solutions. Embracing these challenges not only fuels my motivation but also emphasises the importance for ongoing personal and professional growth.\n\nIn essence, my commitment to continuous learning, coupled with the multifaceted nature of our profession, serves as a catalyst for perpetual development and excellence in auditing practice.\n\nThe Audit Development Program (ADP) offers a comprehensive perspective on the objectives and essence of the auditing profession. It facilitated the cultivation of a broader comprehension of my role as an auditor and activated a transformative shift in mindset. Presently, I possess refined methodologies and approaches for addressing complex professional and personal challenges. Moreover, the program provided a platform for self-reflection and gap analysis, identifying areas necessitating improvement to enhance my contribution as a professional auditor, enriching society through value addition.\n\nSignificant enhancements are evident across analytical, professional writing, and problem-solving proficiencies, as well as knowledge expansion and awareness. The Oversight Reviewers (ORAs) within my firm demonstrate profound dedication to the program, extending invaluable support to candidates encountering challenges. Their unwavering assistance served as a source of motivation, enabling me to conquer obstacles and successfully complete the program within the designated timeframe.\n\nTo prospective candidates, I affirm that the ADP program presents a rare and exceptional opportunity for personal and professional growth. Embrace this opportunity with pride, fostering a comprehensive understanding of the auditing profession that will undoubtedly enrich your career path.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-5c25f6d\" data-id=\"5c25f6d\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-70f0c16 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team\" data-id=\"70f0c16\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-team.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-image-card elementor-animation- ekit-team-img ekit-team-style-overlay text-center\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4637\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard.png 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"hover-area\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"profile-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"profile-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a aria-label=\"profile\" href=\"javascript:void(0)\" data-mfp-src=\"#ekit_team_modal_70f0c16_429\" class=\"ekit-team-popup\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLisa Venter\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"profile-designation\">Graduation: 30 March 2020 ORA: Ebrahim Dhorat<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-70f0c16\" id=\"ekit_team_modal_70f0c16_429\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered\" role=\"document\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"ekit-team-modal-close\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-times\" viewBox=\"0 0 352 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M242.72 256l100.07-100.07c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48l-22.24-22.24c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L176 189.28 75.93 89.21c-12.28-12.28-32.19-12.28-44.48 0L9.21 111.45c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48L109.28 256 9.21 356.07c-12.28 12.28-12.28 32.19 0 44.48l22.24 22.24c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0L176 322.72l100.07 100.07c12.28 12.28 32.2 12.28 44.48 0l22.24-22.24c12.28-12.28 12.28-32.19 0-44.48L242.72 256z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4637\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard.png 500w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.lis-demos.co.za\/irba-learning\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/bernard-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-info has-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ekit-team-modal-title\">Lisa Venter<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Graduation: 30 March 2020 ORA: Ebrahim Dhorat<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI enjoyed the programme as it marked milestones in developing management level experience in complex audit areas for me.
