Evaluates the economy, efficiency, and effectiveness of programs, functions, and activities of state government.
Performance auditors help improve government by developing recommendations to enhance accountability, transparency, and effectiveness in state government. Auditors work in teams and perform a variety of activities, including conducting research on other states and best practices, interviewing stakeholders and agency staff, analyzing datasets, reviewing documentation, formulating audit conclusions and writing reports.
Examples of audits include evaluating whether agencies are complying with laws and meeting their mission, whether programs are successful at meeting outcomes, and whether agency management provides sufficient oversight of programs.

I chose performance auditing because of the dynamic work environment. There is always something fresh to learn as our audit topics and teams change regularly. LLA’s culture provides a good work/life balance, great benefits, and a lot of professional development.
LLA requires applicants to have particular levels of education, experience, and certifications in order to qualify for a career in Performance Audit Services.
