The Role of the Internal Control Officer

The Internal Control Program provides for a formal process of evaluating the effectiveness of our major functional areas and systems as well as their control mechanisms. Where gaps or non-effective controls exist, they are identified and addressed within a reasonable time frame. The Internal Control Officer (ICO) at Purchase College is responsible for the administration of our Internal Control Program.

The role of the ICO consists of the following:

  • Coordinating internal control activities with management and staff
  • Ensuring compliance with the NY State Internal Control Act
  • Providing education and training on Internal Controls to all staff
  • Evaluating the adequacy of internal controls over key areas of operation through risk assessments and internal control reviews
  • Managing the Purchase College Fraud Hotline (914-251-6060 or compliance.reportfraud@purchase.edu)

We are all responsible for creating and maintaining a strong, effective control environment and a culture of risk awareness. This includes asking questions if you’re not sure what to do and raising concerns if you see something you don’t think is right.
