ABOUT ICPAK – THE HOST
The Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) is a regulatory body mandated to regulate and coordinate the activities of qualified and registered Certified Public Accountants (CPAs) in Kenya – including promoting research into the subject of accountancy and finance and related matters, publication of books, periodicals, journals and articles in connection therewith; promoting the international recognition of the Institute, advising the Examination Board on matters relating to examinations standards and policies, advising the Minister for Finance on matters relating to financial accountability in all sectors of the economy and setting and enforcing standards of professional practice such as accounting, auditing and ethical standards. The Institute is established by an Act of parliament – The Accountants Act and has been in existence since 1978. Over its long history it has registered over 40,000 members. Its members work in diverse sectors of the economy as accountants, financial experts, auditors, financial consultants among other careers within the larger definition of accountancy. Over 1200 of our members have emigrated and are working beyond the borders of Kenya. Members of the Institute are present in 44 different countries around the globe.
ANNUAL SEMINARS – A BRIEF HISTORY
Each year for the last 42 years, ICPAK has maintained a rich tradition of congregating once a year to reflect on the profession and emerging issues affecting the nation. The last seminar followed the same pattern as it sought to reinforce the role of professional accountants in sustainability reporting and climate change. Both editions of the 42nd Annual Seminar attracted an average of 3,900 participants on both physical and virtual attendance, largely drawn from Kenya but with representation from Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi, Mozambique and South Africa. The current event is targeted to attract a wider representation of East Africa and the continent at large.
Due to limited seats the Institute has held two Annual Seminars since 2021 to enable participation by most members. This year, the Institute shall also hold two Annual Seminars dubbed Edition 1 and Edition 2 to accommodate all the professionals. The first edition shall be held from 18th -22nd May 2026 while the second one for this year shall be held on 20th – 20th November 2026.
This year’s events mark 42 years since the time when the Institute held its first Annual Seminar in 1984. This demonstrates resilience, unity and focus of the Accountancy profession. Throughout these decades, the Annual Seminar has acted as a beacon of hope for the profession.
The Institute shall hold the Seminar in two physical venues i.e Sarova White sands and Pride Inn Paradise Hotel in Mombasa, Kenya with an option of live streaming and allocation of speakers and panelists across both venues. The delegates’ allocation to both venues shall be done based on date of payment, with the first venue being allocated the early paying delegates. The seminar shall also be streamed on the virtual platform where some delegates and speakers shall be participating.
TARGET AUDIENCE:
This workshop will be useful to all professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the profession

RISK CHAMPIONS WORKSHOP 2026
2026-05-27 09:00 - 2026-05-29 15:30 | EKA HOTEL, ELDORET, 00200, Kenya
INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
RISK CHAMPIONS WORKSHOP
Theme: Empowering Risk Champions to strengthen organization resilience and governance
27th – 29th May 2026
Eka Hotel, Eldoret
Overview
In today’s dynamic and uncertain business environment, organizations are exposed to a wide range of risks that can affect strategy execution, operational performance, and long-term sustainability. Effective risk management is therefore essential, and Risk Champions play a vital role in embedding a proactive risk culture across the organization. By linking day-to-day operational realities with strategic oversight, Risk Champions strengthen governance, promote accountability, and enhance organizational resilience.
Developing Risk Champions goes beyond basic awareness of risk concepts. It involves equipping individuals with practical skills to identify emerging risks, assess their potential impact, prioritize responses, and implement appropriate mitigation measures. Acting as the first line of defense, Risk Champions monitor risk exposures, coordinate risk information across departments, and ensure alignment with organizational objectives and regulatory requirements. This proactive approach supports informed decision-making, improves transparency, and reinforces stakeholder confidence.
Modern risk environments are increasingly complex and interconnected, organizations must therefore adopt integrated frameworks and technology-enabled solutions, including Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) platforms, to enhance real-time risk tracking, scenario analysis, and enterprise-wide visibility, thereby positioning risk management as a strategic decision-support function.
The Risk Champions Workshop provides a comprehensive overview of the ERM process and its key components, including risk appetite, governance structures, and roles and responsibilities. It is in response to this evolving landscape that the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) has organized this workshop to equip participants with practical skills, insights, and tools to function as proactive Risk Champions who can influence governance, decision-making, and enterprise risk management at all levels.

THE ANNUAL NPO CONFERENCE (with PBORA)
2026-06-15 09:00 - 2026-06-19 15:30 | Pride Inn Paradise Hotel, Mombasa
INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
THE ANNUAL NPO CONFERENCE (with PBORA)
Theme: Strengthening Accountability, Transparency and Sustainability in the Non-Profit Sector
Date: 15th – 19th June 2026
Venue: Pride Inn Paradise Beach Hotel, Mombasa
Time: 09.30am-03.30pm
OVERVIEW:
The non-profit sector in Kenya remains central to social delivery and development finance, but it is operating in a period of rapidly rising stakeholder expectations and regulatory tightening. Regulators and donors now demand stronger evidence of stewardship, clearer links between funding and outcomes, and financial reports that are comparable, decision-useful and auditable. At the same time, many NPOs face persistent operational weaknesses: fragmented accounting practices, weak internal controls, inconsistent recognition of grants and restricted funds, poor donor reporting harmonization, and low readiness for external assurance. These gaps undermine donor confidence, hamper interoperability with government financing and create reputational risk for the sector.
The introduction of the International Non-Profit Accounting Standard (INPAS) marks a pivotal moment for NPO financial reporting. INPAS is designed specifically to address NPO reporting needs including improving transparency, comparability and credibility of NPO financial statements, and providing sector-tailored guidance where existing for-profit standards are inadequate. INPAS is a standalone, topic-based standard that builds on the IFRS for SMEs, full IFRS and IPSAS where appropriate, while adding NPO-specific solutions (for example on fund accounting, revenue from grants/donations, narrative reporting and transition requirements). Its objectives include improving decision-usefulness and accountability of NPO reports.
Practical implementation of INPAS raises immediate technical and governance issues that must be handled at institutional and sectoral levels. Transition disclosures, reconciliations to prior frameworks and narrative reporting are required by INPAS and will impose new preparation, control and disclosure workstreams for many NPOs. INPAS also recognizes cost/benefit trade-offs and permits limited undue-cost exemptions where justified, but any adoption still requires robust planning, updated accounting policies, staff retraining and stronger audit readiness.
For these reasons the Annual NPO Conference (with PBORA) will position INPAS not as a remote technical standard but as a practical, implementable roadmap for accountability: one that requires coordinated action from boards, finance teams, auditors, regulators and donors. The conference will therefore combine high-level policy dialogue with hands-on technical clinics, worked examples and implementation toolkits so participants leave with clear next steps from revising accounting policies and preparing transition reconciliations to strengthening internal controls and improving donor reporting harmonization. This integrated approach will accelerate adoption, reduce dual-reporting burdens and strengthen public confidence in the sector.
Topics to be covered will include:

Audit Documentation- ISA 230 Practical Course 2026

Audit Documentation- ISA 230 Practical Course
Date: 18th–19th June 2026
Time: 9.00-15.30
Venue: ICPAK Auditorium
Theme: Purpose and Principles of Audit Documentation
Overview
Audit documentation is a foundational element of high-quality audits. International Standard on Auditing (ISA) 230, Audit Documentation, sets out the auditor’s responsibility to prepare audit documentation that provides a sufficient and appropriate record of the basis for the auditor’s report and evidence that the audit was conducted in accordance with ISAs and applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
However, many audit practitioners particularly early-career auditors and professionals transitioning into audit roles face challenges in applying ISA 230 practically. Common issues include inadequate working papers, unclear linkages between audit procedures and conclusions, insufficient evidence, poor referencing, and inconsistent use of audit software. As regulatory scrutiny increases globally, audit firms and institutions must invest in strengthening audit documentation skills to ensure audit quality, compliance, and defensibility.
This two-day practical course is designed to bridge the gap between theory and practice by equipping participants with hands-on experience in preparing high-quality audit documentation aligned with ISA 230.
The following topics will be covered:
1. Foundations and Core Documentation Requirements

Introduction to ISA 230: Purpose, scope, and key requirements
Principles of effective documentation
What constitutes sufficient and appropriate audit documentation
Structure and components of a complete audit file
Documenting planning and risk assessment
Practical Exercise: Preparing planning working papers

2. Practical Tools, Case Studies, and Review Techniques

Documenting audit procedures, evidence, and conclusions
Recording professional judgment and significant matters
Common deficiencies identified by regulators and how to avoid them
Use of audit software/tools and standard templates
Practical Exercise: End-to-end documentation of a sample audit area
Review and wrap-up: How to build a strong documentation culture

TARGET AUDIENCE:
This course will be useful to professionals in the Audit and accounting sector with bias on assurance professionals and specifically:

Supervisors in external audit, internal audit and compliance
Audit associates and seniors

Mid-level managers looking to enhance their auditing skills

Individuals responsible for overseeing audits or teams involved in auditing
Tax Practitioners and Tax Experts
Financial Controllers and Credit Managers

Accounting and finance professionals involved in assurance
Risk and compliance officers

THE 7TH ANNUAL BOARD TRAINING
2026-07-06 09:00 - 2026-07-10 15:30 | Enashipai Resort & Spa, Naivasha, 00100, Kenya
INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
THE 7TH ANNUAL BOARD TRAINING
Theme: Effective Modern-Day Governance for Solid Foundations
DATE: 6TH JULY– 10TH JULY 2026
TIME: 09.00AM-03.30PM
ENASHIPAI RESORT, NAIVASHA
OVERVIEW
Boards are the central force behind organizational stability and strategic success, charged with guiding vision, safeguarding integrity and ensuring long-term growth. In today’s rapidly changing environment, where technology, regulation, and stakeholder expectations converge, boards must operate with insight, resilience, and foresight. Their ability to anticipate challenges, make informed decisions and cultivate trust directly influences organizational performance and credibility, positioning the board as a decisive force for enduring excellence.
Effectiveness in modern governance requires boards to balance strategic thinking with operational intelligence. Understanding the financial and operational health of an organization, integrating long-term risk considerations and ensuring accountability allows boards to navigate complexity with clarity. Inclusive dialogue, ethical leadership and constructive debate strengthen cohesion, enabling boards to make decisions that reflect both organizational priorities and stakeholder expectations while fostering a culture of integrity and transparency.
Boards are also architects of future resilience. By embracing diversity of thought, preparing for leadership continuity, and adopting emerging technologies responsibly, boards can guide organizations through uncertainty while maintaining adaptability and innovation. Their oversight ensures that strategic objectives, sustainability considerations, and societal responsibilities are integrated into the organization’s operations, fostering an environment where growth, accountability, and long-term value coexist.
High-performing boards understand that governance extends beyond oversight; it is a catalyst for shaping organizational trajectory. By combining foresight, risk intelligence, ethical stewardship, and adaptive leadership, boards provide stability and vision in times of disruption. In an era defined by digital transformation, evolving regulations, and heightened expectations, boards that embrace these principles position their organizations to thrive, remain resilient, and achieve sustainable success. It is in this consideration that ICPAK has planned a 5-day board training with specific emphasis on the following areas:

Board Roles and Fiduciary Duties in a Digital World – Modern responsibilities and legal obligations of directors.
Emerging Legal and Regulatory Trends for Boards – Staying ahead of compliance, liability, and sector-specific updates.
Ethical Leadership and Accountability at the Board Level – Strengthening transparency and integrity in decision-making.
Board Dynamics and Collaborative Decision-Making – Enhancing teamwork, conflict resolution, and effective meetings.
Advanced Financial Literacy for Strategic Oversight – Understanding statements, ratios, and budgeting for informed governance.
Strategic Planning and Organizational Guidance – Shaping, monitoring, and evaluating long-term organizational strategies.
Building a Risk-Intelligent Board – Identifying, assessing, and mitigating financial, operational, and cyber risks.
Performance Monitoring and Accountability Metrics – Tools to measure board and management effectiveness.
Embedding ESG into Board Oversight – Integrating sustainability and social responsibility into strategy and operations.
AI, Technology, and Digital Governance – Leveraging tech responsibly while managing emerging risks.
Succession Planning and Leadership Continuity – Preparing for seamless transitions at board and executive levels.
Diversity, Inclusion, and High-Impact Boards – Strengthening decision-making through varied perspectives and skills.

RETIREMENT BENEFITS INDUSTRY CONFERENE (physical option)

INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA

RETIREMENT BENEFITS INDUSTRY CONFERENE
Date: 22nd – 24th July 2026
Time: 9:00am – 4:00pm
Venue: ICPAK Auditorium CPA Centre
OVERVIEW
The retirement benefits industry in Kenya is operating within an increasingly complex and demanding environment. Structural demographic changes, including increasing longevity and a growing retired population, are exerting pressure on scheme funding and benefit sustainability. At the same time, market volatility, inflation uncertainty and evolving investment landscapes are challenging traditional asset allocation strategies. Trustees and scheme management are required to balance long-term liabilities with short-term liquidity needs while maintaining prudence, transparency and regulatory compliance.
In parallel, the regulatory and professional expectations placed on pension schemes continue to expand. Actuarial valuations are subject to heightened scrutiny, funding shortfalls demand credible recovery plans, and financial reporting must faithfully reflect scheme solvency, investment performance and member entitlements. Emerging risks, particularly climate change, ESG stewardship obligations, cyber threats and data integrity issues are no longer peripheral considerations but central components of fiduciary duty.
Against this backdrop, ICPAK has developed this inaugural three-day training designed to move beyond theory and address the most difficult, practical challenges facing retirement benefit schemes. The programme is structured to equip trustees, finance teams and service providers with actionable tools to strengthen governance, improve funding decisions, align investments with liabilities, and respond effectively to emerging risks that threaten long-term member outcomes.
Additionally, the following topics will be discussed during the sessions:

Evening Networking Forum- Emotional Intelligence
2026-07-29 16:00 - 18:00 | ICPAK Auditorium, CPA Centre, Nairobi
INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
Evening Networking Forum- Emotional Intelligence
Theme- Strengthening Emotional Intelligence for Impactful Leadership and Professional Excellence
Date: 29th July 2026
Time: 04.00pm-06.00pm
Venue- CPA Centre
Overview
Emotional Intelligence (EI) has become an essential capability in today’s professional world, influencing how individuals understand their emotions, build meaningful relationships, and make grounded decisions. Unlike IQ, which measures cognitive ability, EI combines thinking and feeling to support self-awareness, emotional regulation, and authentic decision-making. It enables individuals to manage their reactions, meet emotional needs, and navigate situations with clarity and intention. Because EI predicts effectiveness and can be developed over time, it offers a unique pathway to personal fulfillment and professional success.
In modern workplaces, EI is increasingly recognized as a strategic competency that enhances communication, strengthens trust, and enables professionals to respond ethically under pressure. For accountants, auditors, finance practitioners, and business leaders, EI plays a pivotal role in managing stakeholder expectations, upholding integrity, and maintaining composure in high-stakes environments. By identifying emotional triggers and managing emotional hijacking, professionals cultivate the resilience and sound judgment required in complex and demanding roles.
A strong grounding in Emotional Intelligence supports self-awareness, emotional regulation, empathy, and social competence skills that enable individuals to manage conflict effectively, give constructive feedback, and lead with authenticity. In fields where technical expertise is expected, EI becomes a key differentiator that enhances ethical behavior, client care, decision-making, and leadership effectiveness. Professionals with high EI are better equipped to adapt to change, handle stress, and respond calmly in workplaces characterized by tight deadlines and regulatory scrutiny.
Beyond the individual level, EI has become central to building healthy organizational cultures. Teams with strong emotional intelligence demonstrate greater collaboration, accountability, innovation, and psychological safety. Leaders who apply EI foster inclusive environments where people feel respected, motivated, and empowered to perform at their best. As organizations confront growing complexity, diversity, and evolving work dynamics, EI has emerged as a critical driver of trust, agility, and long-term performance.
It is in recognition of this growing importance that ICPAK has organized the Evening Networking Forum. The session provides professionals with an opportunity to deepen their understanding of Emotional Intelligence through guided discussions, real-life scenarios, and practical exercises. Participants will explore their emotional strengths, practice empathy-centered communication, and learn how EI influences leadership, teamwork, and conflict management. By blending learning with live networking, the forum equips attendees to apply EI concepts immediately while strengthening their professional connections and personal growth journeys.
The forum is designed to cover the following topics:
Introduction to Emotional Intelligence

Definition, principles, and components of Emotional Intelligence
Understanding emotions and responses
Why EI matters in modern professional practice
Difference between EQ and IQ

How emotional intelligence differs from other intelligences

practical: Analyze personal emotional triggers

Assessing and Developing Emotional Intelligence

INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA

ANNUAL PRACTITIONERS’ CONVENTION
Theme: Enhancing quality and efficiency in audit, tax and advisory engagements
Date: 12th – 14th August 2026
Time: 9:00 am – 3:30 pm
Venue: Sarova Woodlands, Nakuru
(This is one of the mandatory trainings for Practicing Certificate consideration)
OVERVIEW
The accountancy profession has undergone significant developments and experienced a lot of evolution over the past few years. In recent years, the global accounting profession has undergone significant transformation due to rapid technological advancements, evolving regulatory frameworks, increasing stakeholder expectations, and the growing emphasis on sustainability and ethics. The audit environment has particularly experienced tremendous developments arising from the effect of new emerging and stringent regulations and standards among other social and economic developments. This has also happened to the other areas of the profession which has necessitated the change of approach and tact in delivering professional accountancy engagements, to align with rapid developments in technology, geopolitical risks and stringent regulations.
In this dynamic environment, audit practitioners, tax professionals, management consultants, and accounting practitioners must remain agile and well-informed to maintain professional competence and deliver value to clients and stakeholders. This makes it imperative for practitioners to continually update their knowledge and skills in key emerging areas such as sustainability reporting and assurance, artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain technology, and Anti-Money Laundering Policies.
In Kenya, we have witnessed growing pressure on the audit profession to meet the heightened expectations of regulators, boards, and the investing public following reported major frauds affecting the public such as KUSCCO and OAG reports on county expenditure. Practitioners consequently must shift towards risk-based auditing and value-driven assurance, demanding rigorous application of the International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Furthermore, practitioners are today expected to strengthen their forensic capabilities, leveraging data analytics and applying enhanced professional skepticism to detect anomalies and respond to fraud risks early. Practitioners are also faced with challenges revolving around compliance with regulations such as KRA, SASRA, RBA and AML.
As practitioners face expanding roles and increased public scrutiny, soft skills such as communication, leadership, ethical decision-making, and client management are no longer optional; they are critical enablers of success. This forum is therefore designed not only to advance technical mastery but also to empower audit professionals to lead with confidence, integrity, and agility in today’s complex assurance landscape.
It is against this background that the Institute has organized a three-day forum to discuss these critical developments which affect the practitioners in the different categories of practice, and the accountancy profession at large and seek to address the rising concerns of work quality while ensuring that efficiency in undertaking engagements is maintained. The Annual Practitioners Convention aims to provide a platform for knowledge sharing, professional development, and networking among Practitioners. The convention will focus on equipping practitioners with the latest insights and practical tools to enhance their service delivery in an increasingly complex business environment. The following topics will guide the discussions in the Convention:
TOPICS

Global trends in utilization of technology within the accountancy practice
Future Fit Accountants: Roles for the next decade
State of the accountancy profession in Africa- Trends for accountants in practice within various jurisdictions
Shifting landscape for practicing accountants: Utilization of technology for competitive advantage– AI, Blockchain, Audit Software
Overview of the Unique Document Identification Number (UDIN)- Milestones and Opportunities
Anti-Money Laundering and the Expanding Role of Auditors:

AML Compliance by practitioners.

ANNUAL PRACTITIONERS CONVENTION-Mandatory Training (virtual option)
2026-08-12 09:00 - 2026-08-14 15:30 | Virtual Delivery
INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
ANNUAL PRACTITIONERS’ CONVENTION
Theme: Enhancing quality and efficiency in audit, tax and advisory engagements
Date: 12th – 14th August 2026
Time: 9:00 am – 3:30 pm
Venue: Virtual Delivery
(This is one of the mandatory trainings for Practicing Certificate consideration)
OVERVIEW
The accountancy profession has undergone significant developments and experienced a lot of evolution over the past few years. In recent years, the global accounting profession has undergone significant transformation due to rapid technological advancements, evolving regulatory frameworks, increasing stakeholder expectations, and the growing emphasis on sustainability and ethics. The audit environment has particularly experienced tremendous developments arising from the effect of new emerging and stringent regulations and standards among other social and economic developments. This has also happened to the other areas of the profession which has necessitated the change of approach and tact in delivering professional accountancy engagements, to align with rapid developments in technology, geopolitical risks and stringent regulations.
In this dynamic environment, audit practitioners, tax professionals, management consultants, and accounting practitioners must remain agile and well-informed to maintain professional competence and deliver value to clients and stakeholders. This makes it imperative for practitioners to continually update their knowledge and skills in key emerging areas such as sustainability reporting and assurance, artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain technology, and Anti-Money Laundering Policies.
In Kenya, we have witnessed growing pressure on the audit profession to meet the heightened expectations of regulators, boards, and the investing public following reported major frauds affecting the public such as KUSCCO and OAG reports on county expenditure. Practitioners consequently must shift towards risk-based auditing and value-driven assurance, demanding rigorous application of the International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Furthermore, practitioners are today expected to strengthen their forensic capabilities, leveraging data analytics and applying enhanced professional skepticism to detect anomalies and respond to fraud risks early. Practitioners are also faced with challenges revolving around compliance with regulations such as KRA, SASRA, RBA and AML.
As practitioners face expanding roles and increased public scrutiny, soft skills such as communication, leadership, ethical decision-making, and client management are no longer optional; they are critical enablers of success. This forum is therefore designed not only to advance technical mastery but also to empower audit professionals to lead with confidence, integrity, and agility in today’s complex assurance landscape.
It is against this background that the Institute has organized a three-day forum to discuss these critical developments which affect the practitioners in the different categories of practice, and the accountancy profession at large and seek to address the rising concerns of work quality while ensuring that efficiency in undertaking engagements is maintained. The Annual Practitioners Convention aims to provide a platform for knowledge sharing, professional development, and networking among Practitioners. The convention will focus on equipping practitioners with the latest insights and practical tools to enhance their service delivery in an increasingly complex business environment. The following topics will guide the discussions in the Convention:
TOPICS

Global trends in utilization of technology within the accountancy practice
Future Fit Accountants: Roles for the next decade
State of the accountancy profession in Africa- Trends for accountants in practice within various jurisdictions
