What to expect from a Performance Audit

When people think of an audit, they often think of financial records, receipts and reporting.  The Office of the Auditor General conducts financial audits–but it’s not the only type we do. This online guide will introduce you to our performance audits: what they are, why we do them and what you can expect during one. 

You may also wish to read the introductory brochure for a quick overview of performance audits, or review the About Us section of this website for general information on the Office and its work. If you have questions or feedback you can also contact us.

Performance audits, like financial audits, are an important part of open and accountable government. We look forward to working with you.
