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. While many organizations have adopted IPSAS in principle\, practical challenges remain in compiling\, analyzing\, and reporting accrual-based financial statements. \nThese organizations\, often require hands on training to ensure they can correctly apply IPSAS requirements\, prepare compliant financial statements\, and understand the implications of accrual adjustments and disclosures. This two day practical course is designed to address these gaps by equipping participants with the knowledge and tools needed for accurate IPSAS-compliant reporting. \nThe following topics will be covered: \nFoundations and Practical Application of IPSAS Accrual\n\nOverview of IPSAS and the conceptual framework\nKey differences between cash basis and accrual basis reporting\nRecognition and measurement principles\nPractical sessions on:\n\n\nProperty\, plant\, and equipment (IPSAS 17)\nIntangible assets (IPSAS 31)\n\n\nRevenue from exchange and non-exchange transactions (IPSAS 9 & 23)\n\n\nEmployee benefits (IPSAS 39)\n\nPreparing IPSAS Compliant Financial Statements\n\nAccrual adjustments and closing processes\nPreparing primary financial statements:\n\n\nStatement of Financial Performance\nStatement of Financial Position\n\n\nCash Flow Statement (IPSAS 2)\n\n\nStatement of Changes in Net Assets/Equity\nNotes and disclosures requirements\nConsolidated financial statements (IPSAS 35–38)\n\n\nPractical exercise: Full preparation of an IPSAS-compliant set of financial statements.\nCommon challenges\, best practices\, and implementation strategies\n\nTARGET AUDIENCE: \nThis webinar will be useful to professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the profession but more specifically: \n\nPublic sector accountants and finance officers.\nGovernment auditors.\n\n\nPublic finance management professionals.\n\n\nInternal auditors and financial controllers.\nManagers and decision-makers in public institutions who are responsible for financial oversight.\n\nYOUR FINANCIAL COMMITMENT \nCharges for the training will be Kes 18\,500/= which will cover workshop fees\, materials\, and e-certificates of attendance. \nCPD UNITS \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 10 CPD Units upon successfully attending the sessions. \nONLINE BOOKING: \nWe call on Seminar participants to note that booking for is available only online at www.icpak.com/events and will close two hours before the training session.  Delegates are reminded to note that online booking for training sessions is mandatory.
