SUMMARY:THE 10TH NATIONAL LADY ACCOUNTANTS CONFERENCE
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(ESTABLISHED UNDER THE ACCOUNTANTS ACT\, LAWS OF KENYA) \nTHE 10th NATIONAL LADY ACCOUNTANTS CONFERENCE\nTheme: Empowering Ladies for Sustainable Leadership\, Innovation\, and Inclusive Growth in a Globally Competitive Landscape\n28th SEPTEMBER – 2nd OCTOBER 2026\nSAROVA WHITESANDS BEACH RESORT & SPA\, MOMBASA\nTIME: 09.00am-03.30pm \nOVERVIEW \nThe ICPAK National Lady Accountants Conference stands as a premier platform dedicated to celebrating\, empowering\, and advancing women in the accounting and other professions. It brings together female professionals across diverse sectors to reflect on their contribution to financial leadership\, governance\, and economic development\, while also creating space for dialogue on the challenges and opportunities that shape their personal and professional journeys. In a field that continues to evolve rapidly\, the conference recognizes the critical role women accountants play in driving integrity\, innovation\, and sustainable value creation within organizations and the broader economy. \nIn today’s rapidly evolving global economy\, empowering women to assume leadership roles is no longer a matter of equity alone but a strategic imperative for sustainable progress. Women leaders bring distinctive perspectives shaped by diverse life experiences\, fostering decision-making that prioritizes long-term resilience over short-term gains. Sustainable leadership\, when championed by ladies\, integrates environmental stewardship\, ethical governance\, and social responsibility into core business strategies. This approach helps organizations navigate volatility—whether from climate challenges or geopolitical shifts—while building stakeholder trust and ensuring enduring viability in competitive international markets. \nInnovation flourishes when barriers to women’s participation are dismantled. Ladies often excel at collaborative problem-solving and human-centered design\, injecting fresh ideas into technology\, healthcare\, finance\, and green industries. By investing in women and inclusive innovation ecosystems\, organizations unlock untapped talent pools that drive breakthroughs. In a globally competitive landscape\, companies and nations that harness female ingenuity report higher patent filings\, agile adaptation to market disruptions\, and the creation of solutions that address both local needs and universal challenges\, such as sustainable energy and digital inclusion. \nThere is a growing recognition of the critical role women accountants play in driving ethical leadership\, financial transparency\, and sustainable organizational growth. As organizations increasingly embrace digital transformation\, sustainability reporting and integrated thinking\, lady accountants are expected to take up more strategic roles beyond compliance and reporting. One of the key benefits of this conference is enhanced professional capability and leadership development among women in the accounting and other professions. \nThe 10th National Lady Accountants Conference therefore aims to demystify complex and emerging areas while empowering women to confidently navigate leadership roles and professional challenges. It will provide practical insights into how strategic decisions are influenced and how women can position themselves as key drivers of transformation within their organizations. Additionally\, participants are expected to be better equipped to lead with confidence\,  create strong and lasting personal brands\, overcome career plateaus\, embrace innovation and contribute meaningfully to sustainable financial and organizational success. \nThe following topics will be discussed during the conference: \n\nWomen in Leadership and Influence – Exploring pathways for women to attain leadership roles and shape strategic decisions in different professions.\nNavigating Career Plateaus – Practical Strategies for Career Elevation \nCountry Living – Embracing a Significant Shift in One’s Life \nChild Adoption and Family Building \nFinancial Independence and Wealth Creation for Women Professionals – Empowering ladies to build personal wealth\, invest strategically\, and achieve financial security.\nWork-Life Integration and Career Sustainability – Addressing the balance between professional growth\, personal responsibilities\, and long-term career resilience.\nRetirement Preparedness & Transition – Beyond Golf\, Grand children and \nPersonal Branding and Professional Visibility – Building strong professional identities to enhance influence\, recognition\, and career advancement.\nEffective Parenting in the Modern Age – tenets for proper upbringing of children \nDealing with\, overcoming and supporting those going through divorce and separation \nLeading Multigeneration Teams with different Dynamics \nThe Changing Nature and Future of Work in Accounting & Across Professions – Adapting to remote work\, hybrid models\, and evolving workplace expectations.\nDigital Transformation in Finance and Accounting – Leveraging emerging technologies such as AI\, data analytics\, and automation to enhance efficiency at the workplace.\nOutdoor Activity – Team Building for Confidence and Wellness.\nFree Counselling Services\nFriday Gala Dinner \n\nTARGET AUDIENCE \nThe Conference will be beneficial to all ladies both accountants and non- accountants\, women in leadership positions and those aspiring to join leadership positions. \nCONTINUOUS PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT UNITS (CPD UNITS): \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 20 Structured CPD Units upon successfully completion of the Conference. \nCONFERENCE CHARGES: \n\n\n\nDetails\nAmount\n\n\nAssociate Members\nKShs 64\,000 per Delegate\n\n\nFull Members\nKShs. 69\,000 per Delegate\n\n\nNon-Member\nKShs. 74\,000 per Delegate\n\n\nAccommodation**\nDelegates are advised to make own accommodation arrangements\n\n\n\nNote: Seminar charges cater for training fee\, training materials\, certificate and meals during the event. \nONLINE BOOKING \nRegistration: Delegates are reminded to note that online booking for webinar is mandatory on https://www.icpak.com/event-registration/Online Booking \nWe call on interested participants to note that booking for the event is available online at www.icpak.com  and will close two hours before the training session.

SUMMARY:Audit Staff Training-A Practical Approach (Mandatory Training
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nAudit Staff Training-A practical Approach (Mandatory Training)\nTheme: Future-Ready Auditors: Enhancing Quality\, Innovation and Trust.\nDate: 30th September -1st October 2026\nTime: 9.00-15.30\nVenue: virtual\n(This is one of the mandatory trainings for Practicing Certificate consideration) \nOverview \nThe audit profession is undergoing unprecedented transformation driven by technological advancements\, evolving stakeholder expectations\, increasing regulatory scrutiny\, and the growing complexity of business transactions. Auditors are expected not only to provide assurance on financial information but also to navigate emerging risks\, leverage technology effectively and uphold the highest standards of professional judgment and ethical conduct. \nGlobally\, audit regulators and standard setters continue to introduce reforms aimed at strengthening audit quality and restoring public confidence in the profession. Recent developments such as the International Standards on Quality Management (ISQM 1 and ISQM 2)\, revisions to risk assessment and auditing standards\, increased focus on sustainability reporting and assurance\, and the adoption of advanced data analytics tools are reshaping audit methodologies and engagement practices. \nIn Kenya\, auditors operate within an increasingly complex environment characterized by heightened regulatory expectations\, digital transformation\, evolving reporting requirements\, and growing concerns over fraud\, cybersecurity threats\, and financial reporting quality.
