INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
ISQM 1 and 2 Webinar 2026
Date: 21st October 2026
Time: 04.00pm-06.00pm
Delivery Mode: Virtual
Overview
The International Standard on Quality Management 1 (ISQM 1) enhances quality management systems for firms performing audits or reviews of financial statements, other assurance or related services engagements. It promotes a proactive and effective approach to quality management, encouraging firms to design a system tailored to their specific circumstances. ISQM 1 replaces ISQC 1, which focuses on quality control for firms performing audits and reviews of financial statements and related services engagements. The objective is to ensure that the firm and its personnel fulfill their responsibilities and engagements in accordance with professional standards and legal requirements. Quality management is core to audit, and a detailed understanding of the importance of both audit quality and quality management underlines the performance of an audit. Quality is a key part of ensuring that audits are fit for purpose and retain the public trust.
The International Standard on Quality Management 2 (ISQM 2) outlines the scope of engagements subject to an engagement quality (EQ) review, the appointment and eligibility of the EQ reviewer, and their responsibilities. The objective is to objectively evaluate significant judgments made by the engagement team and their conclusions. ISQM 2 applies to all engagements required to perform an EQ review in accordance with ISQM 1, effective for audits and reviews of financial statements and assurance and related services engagements.
