Educate. Enlighten. Empower.
The New York State Internal Control Association (NYSICA) is an organization created to provide resources related to internal control in government. The Board of Directors consists of 10 members elected by the membership.
NYSICA’s membership is comprised of Internal Control Officers, auditors, and other practitioners who also strive to maintain and improve accountability in government. Its members are generally NYS agencies, authorities, and commissions, as well as a growing web community comprised of over 400 participants from international, federal, state, and local governments.
We provide discounted and free training and staff development opportunities to our members in three areas: professional development, refresher training, and beginner orientation for ICOs. We also provide resources and information regarding the New York State Governmental Accountability, Audit and Internal Control Act and the Standards for Internal Control in NYS Government.
