SUMMARY:INPAS Practical Course on Reporting for Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs)
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nINPAS Practical Course on Reporting for Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs)\nTheme- Strengthening Financial Reporting for Transparency\, Accountability & Donor Confidence\n22nd – 23rd January 2026\nTime: 09.00am-03.30pm\nVenue – CPA Centre \nOverview \n Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs) occupy a unique space in society\, delivering social impact and advancing development goals across sectors. Their operations rely heavily on funding from donors\, grants\, and other resources that require careful stewardship. Accurate\, comprehensive\, and transparent financial reporting is central to sustaining stakeholder confidence\, demonstrating accountability\, and ensuring compliance with statutory and donor requirements. However\, NPOs often face challenges in financial reporting due to multiple funding sources\, restricted and unrestricted funds\, donor-specific requirements\, and sector-specific accounting standards. \nThe International Non-Profit Accounting Standard (INPAS) represents one of the most significant modern developments in global financial reporting for the not-for-profit sector. As NPOs continue to play critical roles in advancing social\, economic and human-development agendas\, the need for consistent\, comparable\, transparent and decision-useful reporting has become more urgent. INPAS is intended to provide a globally coherent framework that enables non-profits to communicate performance\, stewardship\, accountability and impact using standardized accounting and disclosure principles. Its introduction seeks to resolve long-standing inconsistencies\, especially where NPOs rely on improvised internal policies or apply for-profit standards that do not appropriately reflect mission-centric activities\, donor restrictions\, program delivery dynamics and resource deployment structures. \nINPAS is not only a harmonization exercise; it provides clarity in key reporting areas such as recognition of resource inflows\, the accounting treatment of donor-imposed conditions\, attribution of expenditure to program portfolios\, measurement of performance\, narrative reporting and fund accountability. Unlike general-purpose accounting standards that were not written for the non-profit domain\, INPAS responds directly to unique sector characteristics such as restricted funding\, grant commitments\, volunteer contributions\, social-value outcomes and multi-stakeholder assurance needs. Non-profit reporting is therefore expected to transition away from inconsistent classification practices\, unverifiable impact statements and fragmented accounting treatments that currently limit comparability and weaken sector confidence. \nGlobal conversations around impact measurement\, trust restoration\, funding transparency\, donor confidence and public accountability continue to intensify. Development partners\, auditors\, regulators\, philanthropies and funding institutions are increasingly demanding standard-consistent reporting that demonstrates responsible resource use\, clear alignment between programs and expenditure\, and enhanced traceability of outcomes. INPAS responds to this shift by aligning reporting with global accountability expectations\, improving comparability\, elevating the quality of disclosures and strengthening intelligence for resource allocation decisions. \nWith rising societal expectations\, governance reforms\, anti-corruption agendas and ESG-linked donor priorities\, non-profit reporting can no longer be confined to traditional financial statements. The sector’s trust proposition depends on visibility into how funds translate into services and how actions generate real change. INPAS will therefore influence how NPOs record\, classify\, measure\, present and narrate the way value is created and delivered. This transition\, from narrow financial reporting to integrated program-performance reporting\, is highly strategic: reporting becomes a driver of confidence\, not merely a compliance exercise. \nIt is in response to this evolving context\, and ahead of INPAS implementation\, that the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) is convening this training to equip preparers\, reviewers and professionals with practical skills\, contextual understanding and transition readiness\, so that by the time formal adoption arrives\, the sector will be informed\, empowered and aligned for confident implementation. \nThe course is designed to cover the following topics: \nThe course is designed to cover the following topics:\n1.

SUMMARY:Reporting on IPSAS Accrual-Practical Course
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nReporting on IPSAS Accrual Practical Course\nDate: 29th – 30th January 2026\nTime: 9.00-15.30\nVenue: ICPAK Auditorium\nTheme: Transitioning from Cash to Accrual Reporting under IPSAS \nOverview \nPublic sector entities globally are increasingly transitioning from cash-basis accounting to International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS) Accrual basis to improve transparency\, accountability\, and comparability of financial information. For instance the Kenyan cabinet in March 2024 approved the transition from cash basis of accounting to accrual basis of accounting with effect from 1st July 2024. The accrual basis of accounting\, as outlined by IPSAS\, provides a more accurate picture of a government’s financial position and performance by recognizing transactions when they occur\, rather than when cash is received or paid. \nThis move is necessitated by the short-coming of cash basis of accounting with its attendant weaknesses arising from the point of view o financial transparency\, integrity and accountability.  Governments that follow cash basis of accounting tend not to maintain comprehensive and up-to date records of the value of their assets and liabilities. \nThe enabling factors of accrual accounting in the public sector include and is not limited to: growing recognition of the limits of pure cash basis of accounting; the development of accrual based international standards for government fiscal and financial reporting including government Finance statistics manual (GFSM) and International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS); the professionalization of the government accounting cadre and resulting introduction of private sector techniques into the public sector and the advent of computerized financial management information system (FMISs) which greatly reduce the transaction costs of collecting and consolidating accrual-based information.
