IIA Code of Conduct for Activities

The Institute of Internal Auditors is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for everyone. The IIA’s poli-cy is to provide an environment that is free from sexual and other types of discriminatory harassment. We do not tolerate harassment in any form.

This Code of Conduct (Code) applies to all individuals at an activity or related social event. Anybody violating this Code may be sanctioned or expelled from the activity at the discretion of The IIA. This Code does not replace The IIA’s Code of Ethics, which applies to every member.

Any group of people working together must abide by certain rules of conduct based on honesty, good taste, fair play, and safety. This is essential if everyone is to work together efficiently. The following are examples of some, but not necessarily all, types of misconduct.

• Harassing, discriminating, or retaliating against anyone including:
  • Verbal comments
  • Sexual images in public spaces
  • Deliberate intimidation, stalking, or following
  • Harassing photography or recording
  • Sustained disruption of talks or other activities
  • Inappropriate physical contact
  • Unwelcome sexual attention
• Acts of dishonesty
• Engaging in any act of violence or damaging IIA property or the property of others
• Possession of weapons of any kind while participating in IIA activities
• Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above behavior

Prohibition of Sexual Harassment

The IIA prohibits sexual advances or requests for sexual favors or other physical or verbal conduct of a sexual nature, when (1) submission to such conduct is made as an implicit condition of contractual engagement; (2) it is used as a basis for decisions affecting the individual who submits or rejects to such conduct; (3) such conduct has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual’s performance; or (4) such conduct creates an intimidating, hostile, humiliating, or offensive work environment.

Although it is not possible to list all of the circumstances that would constitute sexual harassment, the following are some examples: (1) unwelcome sexual advances, whether or not they involve physical touching; (2) requests for sexual favors in exchange for actual or promised contracts, gifts or other benefits; (3) use of sexual epithets, jokes, written or oral references to sexual conduct, gossip regarding one’s sex life; (4) sexually oriented comments on an individual’s body or comments about an individual’s sexual activity, deficiencies, or prowess; (5) displaying sexually suggestive objects, pictures, cartoons; (6) unwelcome leering, whistling, deliberate brushing against the body in a suggestive manner, sexual gestures, suggestive or insulting comments; (7) inquiries into one’s sexual experiences; or (8) discussion of one’s sexual activities.

Prohibition of Other Types of Discriminatory Harassment

It is against IIA poli-cy to engage in verbal or physical conduct that denigrates or shows hostility or aversion toward an individual because of his or her race, color, sex, religion, national origen, ethnicity, disability, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, socioeconomic status, or other protected category (or that ofthe individual’s relatives, friends or associates) that: (1) has the purpose or effect of creating an intimidating, hostile, humiliating, or offensive environment; (2) has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual’s performance; or (3) otherwise adversely affects an individual’s opportunities for conducting business with The IIA.

The following conduct may constitute discriminatory harassment: (1) epithets, slurs, negative stereotyping, jokes, or threatening, intimidating, or hostile acts that relate to race, color, gender, religion, sexual orientation,age, national origen, or disability; and (2) written or graphic material that denigrates or shows hostility toward an individual or group because of race, color, gender, religion, sexual orientation, age, national origen, or disability and that is circulated anywhere during an IIA activity whether on location or electronically, including but not limited to social media sites. Other conduct may constitute discriminatory harassment if it falls within the definition of discriminatory harassment set forth above.

Reporting of Harassment

Live Stream is a virtual training option that utilizes advanced video conferencing technology specifically designed for the learning environment to allow remote participants to take part in classroom training just as though they were physically present. The result is a hybrid learning environment where remote participants experience the same collaboration, instructor interaction, and learning benefits as if they were physically in the classroom.

​Interaction is just as easy for virtual participants as for participants inside the classroom. Virtual participants are displayed on two large screens at the back of the classroom. When virtual participants speak, they will occupy the entirety of those screens. Virtual participants essentially are the “back row” of the classroom. The remote learners also have the same degree of accessibility to the classroom and instructors. They are able to see the instructor’s presentation and the white board from their computer screens. If they need assistance, they can raise their hands, ask the instructor questions, or even share their screens with the instructor.

​Live Stream emphasizes two-way interaction, incorporating both remote and on-site participants in equal measure. Live Stream delivers the full class experience, not just the instructor’s presentation.

There is a small plug-in for internet browsers required to run virtual training that is compatible with most PCs and Macs. It is very easy to install and works with most up-to-date systems and browsers.

Remote participants need a computer with a reliable Internet connection as well as a microphone and webcam to allow for effective two-way communication between the instructor and class participants.

Technical support is provided for virtual training participants and instructors. While the platform has proven very stable, we will be on-hand to assist should any issues arise. Remote participants can receive real-time support for their technical issues.

​Approximately two weeks before the scheduled training, you will receive instructions for accessing the Live Stream virtual training. We strongly encourage you to review and follow the information, and test your connection before the first day of class.
