Andy Dahl - 2015-2016 TCIIA Chapter President
  

Greetings Twin Cities IIA Chapter Members,
As we approach the end of our 2015-2016 chapter year, it's my pleasure to report an exceptional execution of our strategy and to reflect again on how many local internal audit officials benefit from the services provided by this organization. In addition to achieving and exceeding our goals under the Chapter Achievement Program (CAP) and retaining our Platinum status placing us in the top tier of IIA chapters in North America, I've been truly impressed by the level of effort put forth by this team of volunteers.
