Initiatives & Committees
Leading change
Compliance, Audit, Risk & Ethics
The Compliance, Audit, Risk and Ethics (CARE) Committee was formed in 2022 to systematically share risk and internal control data, information, knowledge and solutions across all UW-Eau Claire colleges and departments and achieve optimal and best practice driven results in support of the University’s mission. The mission of the committee is to collaborate to identify and manage the full range of risks that UW-Eau Claire faces, champion the resultant successful strategies and communicate them to the campus for broader application.
Control Self-Assessment
Control Self-Assessment (CSA) is a process through which internal control is tested and assessed with the goal of providing a reasonable guarantee that all operational objectives will be attained.
Process Improvement Advisory Team
The Process Improvement Advisory Team (PIAT) is comprised of a collaborative Work Group Team and an Advisory Team, both focused on process efficiencies and cost containment. We identify process improvement projects and implement continuous, incremental change. These changes can include savings of time and money across a variety of areas. We will address these changes to align with policy, compliance and general best practices.
