I'd say Assurance is about analysing a company's processes to understand it and Audit is the particular branch of monitoring a company's financial statements to make sure they're true and fair (which we do by a series of audit tests, requesting client documents, asking the client questions)

Hi Diya, assurance is essentially giving the client confidence that their financial statements are a true and fair representation of their current position. This in turn gives confidence to the client and the general public.

Hi Diya! I am doing the Digital Degree apprenticeship within Assurance. It is one of the options on the EY careers page but is only offered in certain offices. The apprenticeship starts in September each year and i think the applications are open now. https://www.ey.com/en_uk/careers/students/programmes/schools/digital-tech
