About us

JC Audit Training Limited was founded by John Chesshire in 2014, with a mission to deliver excellent, value-for-money training and consulting at fair and affordable prices.

John has been a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Internal Auditors since 2006 and holds QIAL, CIA and CISA qualifications.

He also works closely with the Institute of Risk Management (IRM), the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (CIPFA), the Institute of Public Administration (IPA) and is a visiting lecturer at Birmingham City University (BCU).

Why choose JC Audit Training Limited?

John has over 20 years’ practical expertise, doing the very things he delivers training on. He understands what works well, what doesn’t, what the key challenges are, and how to overcome them in practical, efficient and effective ways.

He draws upon his extensive, current experience in diverse, senior and strategic internal audit and governance roles to bring training sessions to life. This includes varied roles such as Head of Business Improvement and Governance, Head of Internal Audit, Chief Assurance Officer, and independent Audit Committee Chair.

John draws upon this extensive work background, together with practical examples, exercises, case studies and realistic scenarios – all of which make training courses immediately relevant to delegates.

One of John’s greatest strengths is that he is NOT a consultant or trainer who delivers only the ‘theory’.

John also provides related advisory and consulting services in internal audit, risk management, governance, control and counter fraud engagements, as well as offering coaching, mentoring and support to individuals and teams. John has written articles for the magazine Internal Auditing, for ACCA, and has authored and edited a number of textbooks and technical guidance pieces for the Chartered Institute of Internal Auditors.
