Specialty CourseFinance Manager & AI Track
Instructor: Mahmoud Chehade
The modern Finance Manager skill set: planning, budgeting, treasury, and management reporting, plus the AI tools now doing the heavy lifting in all four.
A modern auditing course in Riyadh for auditors who want to work faster with technology and AI without losing rigour. Riyadh auditors join a live online cohort or take one-to-one coaching, and audit firms and internal audit teams can bring it in-company. You apply modern tools to testing and analysis while keeping professional scepticism and audit quality at the centre.
These are coaching programs, so the duration above is a guide rather than a fixed timetable. The pace and the number of sessions are set around your current level and how quickly each topic lands, so you finish genuinely able to apply the material rather than simply on schedule.

Audit work in Riyadh now runs on far more data: full general ledgers, e-invoices issued under ZATCA rules, and IFRS financial statements with heavy disclosure. Sampling a handful of transactions by hand is no longer the best use of an auditor’s time. This course shows external and internal auditors how analytics and AI tooling change the way testing and analysis are done.
The point is not to hand judgment to software. The coaching keeps audit quality and professional scepticism at the centre, and treats tools as a way to cover more ground, find exceptions sooner and spend senior time where the risk actually is. Mahmoud spent 30 years leading finance across the UAE, Riyadh and the wider Gulf, so he knows the audit from the client’s side too.
Audit firms and internal audit functions in Riyadh can take the course in-company, delivered at their premises in Arabic or English, so a whole team adopts the same approach. Individuals join a live online cohort or book one-to-one coaching. It is an advanced course, pitched at people already doing audit work who want to deliver more value in less time.
Our office is in Beirut. Riyadh is served through live online cohorts and in-company training delivered at your premises. See all accounting training in Riyadh.
The modern auditing course costs Riyadh participants the fee listed on this page, covering the whole programme rather than a single session. The plan is shaped around your audit experience, so tell us your goal and we will confirm the fit and cost before you commit. Riyadh audit firms and internal audit teams training together get a tailored rate.
In Riyadh it is a multi-week programme, and the duration is a guide rather than a fixed timetable. Sessions and pace follow your current level and how quickly each tool and technique lands, so two Riyadh auditors can finish on different schedules. Tell us where you are starting and we will plan a realistic timeline.
Yes, the modern auditing course in Riyadh is an advanced programme and assumes working knowledge of audit or accounting. You do not need prior experience with AI or data tools. Being strong on audit method and newer to technology is exactly the starting point it is built for.
For someone in Riyadh it starts with your role, your experience and the kind of engagements you work on. We build around the gaps that matter, so techniques you already use move quickly and the ones holding you back get the time they need.
Both are available in Riyadh: live online cohorts you join from anywhere, and in-company training delivered in person at your firm’s premises in Riyadh. There is no Balance Brightness office in Riyadh, and every session is live and interactive, never pre-recorded.
