About the Author

Michael Knapp has taught undergraduate and graduate auditing courses for more than thirty years. He has developed numerous online CPE courses that focus on a wide range of auditing topics, including the COSO internal control framework, the most common types of accounting frauds, and the impact cognitive biases have on the quality of professional audit services. Professor Knapp has also testified in several major litigation cases involving accounting and auditing issues. For three years, he served as a consultant with the FBI on a major white collar criminal case. Recently, he accepted an invitation from the FBI to speak at a national conference attended by more than 500 FBI agents and other federal law enforcement officers. His honors at the University of Oklahoma include, among many others, the Harold E. Hackler Outstanding MBA Professor (determined by a vote of OU's MBA students), the Outstanding Oklahoma Accounting Educator (awarded by the Oklahoma Society of CPAs), the Delta Sigma Pi Professor of the Year (awarded by the OU undergraduate business students' honor society), the David Ross Boyd Professorship (a university-wide designation for teaching excellence awarded to one professor annually), and the McLaughlin Chair in Business Ethics.
