Question types: Multiple choice, single best answer with four options (A–D). Text-only questions mixing direct knowledge of the Global Internal Audit Standards with short workplace situations. Each practice test here uses the same question formats, so you get used to how CIA Part 1 questions are asked before test day.

- Foundations of Internal Auditing (about 35% of the exam)
- Ethics and Professionalism (about 20% of the exam)
