2007 Innovation in Auditing and Assurance Education Award

The award for Innovation in Auditing and Assurance Education was presented to Eric Spires by William Dilla.

The Innovation in Auditing and Assurance Education Award recognizes Professor Eric Spires of The Ohio State University for his financial fraud detection case materials. These materials were developed for a graduate-level fraud detection course, and provide training in a rigorous, quantitative approach to this topic. They provide students with hands-on experience in statistical analytical procedures and data mining techniques. As such, they provide a valuable addition to the existing body of fraud examination case materials. The AAA Audit Section therefore recognizes Eric's effort in developing these materials with the Innovation in Auditing and Assurance Education Award.
