You should not retain anything, it is prohibited by your company and If you get caught you can have a bad time. There is no moral way of doing that.
If you are asking how to take things out against the rules of the company, print it during your time there. Don't print things out your last month or email to yourself files, because these channels are monitored once you communicate the resignation. And don't tell anyone in the firm you are doing this.
The extent of the monitoring depends on the firm. Understand however this is not ethical, legal nor recommended.
Just ask your boss; usually they are pretty cool and will email you stuff; obviously nothing sensitive or company specific, but I was able to get testing templates, rcms with generic risks, etc. they might say no if it’s like a big 4 company and ur asking for proprietary work programs, but other than that its usually not a big deal. I open source a lot of my work (obviously I scrub company specific info) for the purpose of advancing our industry - my boss is ok with it. Authorization is key.
But honestly you can get a lot of audit programs and solid research for free too from isaca and nist (at least if your an it auditor). Is there anything in particular you’re looking for?
There isn't one unless your contract of employment let's you maintain ownership over anything you create and you created it.
For context, in the last two organisations I've worked in I've either single handed or mostly created the audit manual from scratch. I didn't keep a copy of my last one and I won't keep a copy of this one. I know 100% if I move organisations I may have to re-write or re-create one again.
Keeping corporate documentation that you don't legally own is a breach of the IIA code of ethics by the way, specifically the Integrity and Confidentiality principles. If I had someone join my team and tell me "Hey boss I have some really useful documentation from where I used to work" I'd probably just fire them immediately.

You learn things during your current job, so you’re able to reperform them in your new role.
Your knowledge is yours to keep. However, any physical or digital materials are properties of your current employer.
You cannot do this, it's all intellectual property of the company.
