The UAE-IAA also announced that the deadline for receiving applications for the CRMA was extended until the end of March due to the high demand.
According to UAE-IAA, the country has also ranked fourth worldwide, preceded only by the US, Canada and China, in the number of internal auditors who hold CRMA certifications.
"The UAE is considered one of the world's fastest-growing countries in the field of internal audit. The ranking of UAE as one of the top countries in the CRMA is a benchmark, which will motivate us to work harder towards consolidating our position and taking this profession to higher levels," UAE-IAA president Abdulqader Obaid Ali said.
