SUMMARY:ICPAK 7TH RESEARCH CONFERENCE 2026 (virtual option)
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nICPAK 7TH RESEARCH CONFERENCE 2026\nTheme:  Advancing Sustainability and Innovation through Accountancy Research \nDate: 12th-14th August 2026\nTime: 09.00am-03.30pm\nVenue: Virtual Delivery \nINTRODUCTION \nThe 7th ICPAK Research Conference\, themed “Advancing Sustainability and Innovation Through Accountancy Research\,”\, seeks to bring together practitioners\, academics\, policymakers\, regulators\, researchers\, and industry stakeholders to explore how accountancy research can advance sustainability and innovation. \nGlobally\, integrating sustainability into business strategy and financial decisions has become essential to achieving long-term growth. The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals\, the Paris Agreement on Climate Change\, and Kenya’s development frameworks\, including Vision 2030 and the Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda\, emphasize the need to balance economic growth with ESG responsibility. \nDespite the existence of these frameworks\, empirical studies show that while there has been increased adoption of sustainability and ESG reporting\, their integration into financial management and reporting remains limited. Many institutions continue to approach sustainability and innovation as separate functions\, resulting in inconsistent application in business and public sector decision-making. \nAt the same time\, developments in artificial intelligence and financial technology are redefining how performance is measured and value is reported. However\, the accountancy profession faces the challenge of adapting to technological change while ensuring that ethical and sustainability-driven practices remain central to financial management. \nThe 7th Research Conference\, therefore\, seeks to address this gap by providing a platform for the sharing of research findings and emerging trends to strengthen sustainability and shape the future of the accountancy profession in Kenya and beyond. \n\nRATIONALE\n\nThe rationale for the conference is grounded in key global and national developments\, outlined as follows: \n\nInternational reporting standards such as IFRS S1 and S2 have highlighted the need for reliable and comparable disclosures. Accountancy research on these areas can strengthen sustainability and integrated reporting and improve investor and stakeholder confidence.\nEconomies are facing increasing risks from climate-related risks such as droughts and floods\, which pose a threat to economic growth and stability. Accountancy research can illuminate best practices and develop frameworks for climate financial management.\nEmerging technologies such as AI\, blockchain\, big data analytics\, and fintech are transforming financial management\, auditing\, and reporting. Although these tools enhance efficiency\, they also raise important ethical governance and data protection concerns that require more research and policy alignment.\nKenya’s transition to accrual-based public sector accounting and ongoing reforms present opportunities to improve accountability and fiscal sustainability. Accountancy research can assess the impact of these reforms\, identify implementation gaps\, and propose strategies to enhance public sector governance.\n\n\nSUB-THEMES OF THE 7TH RESEARCH CONFERENCE\n\nThe conference will focus on five key thematic areas: \n\nAccounting and Financial Reporting\nTaxation and Public Finance Management\nInnovation and Digital Transformation\nRisk Analysis and Financial Management\nAccountability and Auditing\n\n\nSUBMISSIONS OF ABSTRACTS AND PAPERS\n\nThe Institute invites submission of abstracts and papers from researchers in the following accountancy-related thematic areas; \n\n\n\nS/N\nThematic Area \nSub-Topics  \n \n\n\n\n\n1.    \nAccounting and Financial Reporting \n \n\n\nIntegrated and ESG reporting frameworks (IFRS S1 & S2)\nMeasurement and disclosure of environmental\, social\, and governance (ESG) performance\nAccounting for carbon credits\, natural capital\, and environmental assets\nEnhancing credibility and assurance in non-financial reporting\nThe evolving role of accountants in organizational transformation\n\n\n\n\n2.    \nTaxation and Public Finance Management \n \n\n\nGreen taxation\nIntegrating ESG principles into budgeting and fiscal policy\nPublic sector accountability for achieving development goals\nFinancing climate adaptation\nEconomic implications of carbon pricing and non-financial disclosures\n\n\n\n\n3.    \nInnovation and Digital Transformation\n\n\nDigital platforms for integrated and ESG reporting\nLeveraging AI\, big data\, and blockchain for transparency\nFintech innovations\nData analytics in tracking resource efficiency and performance metrics\nCybersecurity and ethics in digital reporting systems\n\n\n\n\n4.    \nRisk Analysis and Financial Management\n\n\nGreen bonds\, impact investing\, and responsible financing instruments\nClimate-related and ESG risk assessment and disclosure\nIntegrating non-financial factors into capital allocation and decision-making\nManaging risks in evolving business models\nLong-term value creation and performance measurement frameworks\n\n\n\n\n5.    \nAccountability and Auditing \n \n\n\nAuditing of ESG reports\nThe auditor’s role in promoting transparency and ethical conduct\nCombating greenwashing through reporting and verification\nGovernance mechanisms supporting responsible business practices\nEmerging audit methodologies for environmental and social disclosures\n\n \n\n\n\n\nIMPORTANT DATES\n\nResearchers interested in presenting papers should use the link provided and the attached Submission of Instructions Form on the dates specified below: \n\nExpression of interest: 27th February 2026\nDeadline for submission of abstracts: 15th May 2026\nNotification of acceptance of abstracts 6th June 2026\nDeadline for submission of full papers: 30th June 2026\nNotification of acceptance of paper: 14th July 2026\nPresentation of Papers at 7th Research Conference: 12th – 14th August 2026\n\n\nSUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS\n\n\nResearchers interested in presenting at the conference should submit an expression of interest on or before 20th March 2026 at xxxxxxxxxxxxxx\nSubmissions should be in English and should be sent electronically to research@icpak.com.

SUMMARY:Sustainability Assurance Workshop (virtual option)
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nSustainability Assurance Workshop\nTheme: The Future of Sustainability Assurance – Enhancing Transparency\, Accountability\, and Trust\nDate: 16th-17th July 2026\nTime: 9.00am-3.30pm\nVenue: On line \nOverview \nAs global expectations for transparency and accountability continue to rise\, organizations are increasingly required to demonstrate credible performance on environmental\, social and governance (ESG) matters. Sustainability assurance has therefore become essential in strengthening stakeholder confidence by enhancing the reliability and quality of sustainability-related disclosures. With the rapid adoption of sustainability reporting frameworks and the alignment of financial and non-financial information\, professionals must deepen their understanding of the evolving assurance landscape. \nThe shift toward standardized sustainability reporting\, especially with the introduction of IFRS S1 and S2 by the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB)\, alongside established frameworks such as GRI\, SASB and local regulatory requirements\, has created a need for consistent application and interpretation. These frameworks provide the structure for identifying material ESG issues\, defining reporting boundaries and ensuring comparability across organizations and industries. \nClimate-related disclosures have emerged as integral to sustainability reporting. Accordingly\, understanding Scope 1\, Scope 2\, and Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions become increasingly important as an entity measures and reports on its environmental impact. Accurate measurement and disclosure of emissions are increasingly linked to both financial reporting and enterprise risk management-factors that make this an area of significant focus during sustainability assurance engagements. \nHigh-quality ESG assurance requires quality internal controls\, reliable data systems\, and robust verification procedures. Practitioners should keep in mind the special challenges that arise when assessing ESG risks\, testing control environments\, and gathering evidence during limited or reasonable assurance engagements\, which are different from those encountered in traditional financial audits. The effective collection of data\, proper structuring of documentation\, and rigorous processes for verification are very important for credible sustainability reporting to the expectations of regulators and investors and wider stakeholders. \nThe workshop will highlight key aspects of Sustainability Assurance relating to the following: \nOverview of Sustainability Assurance \n\nThe purpose and importance of sustainability assurance.\nThe role of accountants and auditors in verifying ESG information.\nHow sustainability assurance enhances stakeholder confidence and transparency.\nKey drivers pushing organizations toward independent ESG assurance\n\n Regulatory and Reporting Frameworks \n\nGlobal frameworks: GRI\, SASB\, ISSB\, IFRS S1 & S2.\nLocal sustainability reporting requirements and regulations.\nAlignment between global standards and local regulatory expectations.\nEmerging disclosure requirements for climate\, social\, and governance metrics.\n\nGreenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions and Climate Reporting \n\nUnderstanding Scope 1\, 2\, and 3 emissions.\nRelevance of GHG reporting to financial and sustainability disclosures.\nGHG accounting methodologies and boundary setting (operational vs. organizational).\nTransition risks\, climate scenarios\, and their impact on disclosures.\n\nSustainability Assurance Engagements \n\nUnpacking International Standard on Sustainability Assurance (ISSA) 5000\nTypes of assurance: limited vs. reasonable.\nKey procedures and differences from traditional financial audits.\nIndependence\, ethical requirements\, and assurance provider qualifications.\nCommon challenges encountered during sustainability assurance engagements.\n\nData Collection\, Verification\, and Reporting \n\nBest practices for ESG data collection and quality control.\nVerification techniques and third-party assurance.\nData governance\, documentation\, and internal record-keeping standards.\nUse of technology and digital tools for ESG data management and reporting.\n\nESG Risk Management and Internal Controls \n\nIntegrating ESG risks into enterprise risk management.\nEnsuring accuracy and reliability of sustainability reporting.\nDesigning internal controls to support ESG data integrity and assurance readiness.\nMonitoring\, evaluation\, and continuous improvement of ESG risk processes.\n\nTarget Audience: \nThe workshop will be beneficial to all accounting and finance professionals\, auditors\, financial analysts\, and corporate management\, particularly those involved in financial reporting\, sustainability reporting\, and regulatory compliance within organizations. \nContinuous Professional Development Units (CPD Units): \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 10 CPD Units upon successfully attending the session. \nCost: \nCharges for the training will be Kes 10\,000/= which will cover workshop fees\, materials\, and e-certificates of attendance. \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.   This is available either online at www.icpak.com/events  or on the ICPAK Live – A smart phone-based application that is available from google store. \nNB: This is a hybrid event for physical option click here  \nNational Industrial Training Authority (NITA) Reimbursement: \nThe Institute is registered as a trainer with National Industrial Training Authority.

SUMMARY:INSURANCE AND BANKING SECTOR CONFERENCE (virtual option)
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nINSURANCE & BANKING SECTOR CONFERENCE\nTheme: Driving Financial Resilience\, Market Adaptation and Reporting Excellence in Kenya’s Financial Services Sector\nDate: 15th -17 July 2026\nTime: 09.00am-03.30pm\nVenue: Virtual Delivery \nOVERVIEW \nThe banking and insurance sectors remain key pillars of Kenya’s economic growth and financial stability. However\, the operating environment continues to evolve rapidly due to changing regulatory requirements\, economic uncertainties\, technological disruption\, increasing customer expectations\, and emerging risks. Financial institutions are therefore required to strengthen their financial reporting frameworks\, enhance risk management practices\, maintain adequate capital levels\, and leverage innovation to remain competitive and resilient. \nThe implementation of major reporting standards such as IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts and IFRS 9 Financial Instruments continues to reshape financial reporting across the sector. While significant progress has been made\, institutions continue to face challenges relating to data quality\, systems integration\, actuarial modelling\, expected credit loss calculations\, and evolving regulatory expectations. At the same time\, boards and management are under increasing pressure to improve governance structures\, strengthen internal controls\, and provide transparent and decision-useful information to stakeholders. \nTechnological innovation is also transforming the financial services landscape. The growth of digital banking\, mobile financial services\, fintech and Insurtech solutions\, artificial intelligence\, and advanced data analytics is creating new opportunities for operational efficiency\, customer engagement\, and financial inclusion. However\, these developments also introduce emerging risks relating to cybersecurity\, data governance\, operational resilience\, and regulatory compliance. \nFurther\, the sector continues to play a critical role in advancing financial inclusion and supporting economic development. Despite the significant progress achieved in expanding access to financial services\, institutions must continue developing innovative products and delivery channels that meet the needs of underserved populations while maintaining sound risk management practices. \nAgainst this backdrop\, the Institute has organized the Insurance & Banking Sector Conference 2026 to provide a platform for regulators\, practitioners\, accountants\, auditors\, actuaries\, risk professionals\, policy makers\, and industry leaders to discuss emerging developments\, share practical experiences\, and explore strategies for enhancing financial reporting\, institutional resilience\, governance\, innovation\, and sustainable growth within the financial services sector. \n The conference will explore the following thematic areas: \n\nEconomic Outlook\, Regulatory Developments and Sector Resilience\n\n\nEmerging economic and regulatory developments affecting banks and insurers\nPrudential supervision and compliance expectations\nBuilding resilience in an increasingly uncertain environment\n\n\n IFRS 17: Implementation Progress and Emerging Challenges\n\n\nLessons learned from implementation\nContractual Service Margin (CSM)\, actuarial and systems considerations\nFinancial reporting implications and regulatory expectations\n\n\n IFRS 9 and Credit Risk Management\n\n\nExpected Credit Loss (ECL) modelling and impairment challenges\nCredit risk management in a changing economic environment\nEmerging implementation and regulatory developments\n\n\nCapital Adequacy\, Solvency and Reinsurance Strategies\n\n\nCapital adequacy and solvency requirements\nStress testing and capital optimization\nStrategic use of reinsurance for risk mitigation and financial resilience\n\n\nAdvancements in Actuarial Valuation and Risk Modelling\n\n\nEmerging actuarial techniques and innovations\nPredictive modelling and insurance risk assessment\nPractical insights from industry\n\n\nDigital Transformation\, Fintech and Artificial Intelligence\n\n\nAI applications in banking and insurance\nFintech and Insurtech innovations\nData analytics and automation in financial reporting and decision-making\n\n\nCybersecurity\, Data Governance and Operational Resilience\n\n\nEmerging cyber risks and threat management\nData governance and protection requirements\nStrengthening operational resilience and business continuity\n\n\nAnti-Money Laundering Considerations for Banking & Insurance Sectors\n\n\nAnti-Money Laundering and Automatic Exchange of Financial Information updates\nAML Regulatory framework updates\nKenya’s Grey-Listing -Causes and your role in supporting getting Kenya out of Grey Listing\nAML Compliance Challenges-Politically Exposed Persons\, Beneficial Ownership\, Due Diligence\nForeign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) obligations\nCommon Reporting Standards (CRS) Obligation\n\n 9.

SUMMARY:Audit Documentation- ISA 230 Practical Course (virtual option)
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nAudit Documentation- ISA 230 Practical Course\nDate: 18th–19th June 2026\nTime: 9.00-15.30\nDelivery Mode: Virtual\nTheme: Purpose and Principles of Audit Documentation \nOverview \nAudit 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. \nHowever\, 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. \nThis 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. \nThe following topics will be covered: \n1. Foundations and Core Documentation Requirements\n\nIntroduction to ISA 230: Purpose\, scope\, and key requirements\nPrinciples of effective documentation\nWhat constitutes sufficient and appropriate audit documentation\nStructure and components of a complete audit file\nDocumenting planning and risk assessment\nPractical Exercise: Preparing planning working papers\n\n2. Practical Tools\, Case Studies\, and Review Techniques\n\nDocumenting audit procedures\, evidence\, and conclusions\nRecording professional judgment and significant matters\nCommon deficiencies identified by regulators and how to avoid them\nUse of audit software/tools and standard templates\nPractical Exercise: End-to-end documentation of a sample audit area\nReview and wrap-up: How to build a strong documentation culture\n\nTARGET AUDIENCE: \nThis course will be useful to professionals in the Audit and accounting sector with bias on assurance professionals and specifically:  \n\nSupervisors in external audit\, internal audit and compliance\nAudit associates and seniors\n\n\nMid-level managers looking to enhance their auditing skills\n\n\nIndividuals responsible for overseeing audits or teams involved in auditing\nTax Practitioners and Tax Experts\nFinancial Controllers and Credit Managers\n\n\nAccounting and finance professionals involved in assurance\nRisk and compliance officers\n\nYour Financial Investment  \nCharges for the training will be Kes 10\,000/= which will cover workshop fees\, materials\, and e-certificates of attendance. \nCPD Unit  \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 10 Structured CPD Units upon successfully attending all 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.   This is available either online at www.icpak.com/events  or on the ICPAK Live – A smart phone-based application that is available from google store. \n NITA Reimbursement: \nThe Institute is registered as a trainer with National Industrial Training Authority.

SUMMARY:Budget Review and Analysis Seminar (virtual option)
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nBudget Review & Analysis Seminar (virtual option)\nDate: 12th June 2026\nTime: 09.00-11.30am\nVenue: Zoom \nOverview \nThe national budget serves as a strategic blueprint outlining the Government’s revenue projections and expenditure plans for the fiscal year\, and remains a critical instrument for economic management\, resource allocation\, and policy prioritization. The FY2025/26 Budget has been formulated against a backdrop of persistent domestic and global economic challenges\, including inflationary pressures\, elevated debt-servicing costs\, and constrained fiscal space\, alongside emerging macroeconomic opportunities. \nThe 2026/27 budget is structured around key economic and social sectors that drive national development\, with allocations reflecting government priorities under the Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA). \nThe National Treasury has proposed Kshs 4.78 trillion budget for FY 2026/27\, equivalent to 23% of GDP. This comprises recurrent expenditure of Kshs. 3\,538.7 billion\, development expenditure of Kshs. 749.0 billion and transfers to county governments of 495.7 Billion. \nAccording to the Budget Policy Statement 2026\, the fiscal deficit including grants is expected to reach Kshs 1\,115.8 billion (5.3% of GDP) in FY 2026/27\, from the projected deficit of KSh 1\,140.7 billion (6.0% of GDP) in FY 2025/26. This will be financed through net external borrowing amounting to KSh 225.5 billion (1.1% of GDP) and net domestic financing of KSh 890.4 billion (4.2% of GDP). \nThe proposed expenditure is distributed across three broad segments of government spending\, with the national government sector (Executive\, Parliament and Judiciary) receiving Kshs 2.817 trillion. Education remains the largest sectoral allocation\, increasing from Kshs. 754.9 billion in 2025/26 to Kshs.  780 billion in 2026/27\, representing a moderate 4%. Infrastructure development\, particularly through the Ministry of Roads and Transport\, follows closely with an allocation of KSh 312 billion. This highlights sustained investment in connectivity and logistics as key enablers of economic growth. \nThe health sector also records a significant expansion\, with the State Department for Medical Services increasing from KSh 105.95 billion in 2025/26 to KSh 132.97 billion in 2026/27\, representing a 25.5% increase. This growth is largely driven by expanded investments in national referral services\, health products and technologies\, and social protection in health. \nRecent economic data indicates that Kenya’s economy expanded by 4.9% year-on-year in Q3 2025\, driven largely by resilience in the agriculture and construction sectors. This growth has been achieved despite significant public debt repayment obligations and ongoing fiscal consolidation efforts. \nNotwithstanding the growth momentum\, the economy continues to face structural challenges\, including underperforming revenue collection\, high public debt levels\, and persistent cost-of-living pressures. Revenue targets have\, in recent years\, fallen short of projections\, while interest payments continue to consume an increasing share of tax revenues—highlighting ongoing public finance management constraints. \nIt is against this evolving economic landscape that ICPAK convenes the Budget Review & Analysis Seminar – Current State of Affairs\, aimed at providing a timely and in-depth analysis of the country’s fiscal position\, budget implementation realities\, and the implications of recent policy and legislative changes on taxation\, public financial management\, and overall economic performance. \nThe seminar will address the following key thematic areas: \n\nMacroeconomic Performance & Outlook: Economic growth\, inflation trends\, employment\, and sectoral performance.\nRevenue Mobilization & Tax Policy Changes: Recent developments in tax policy\, administration\, and compliance strategies.\nFiscal Framework\, Budget highlights and Public Expenditure Priorities: Analysis of budgetary allocations to key sectors\, including education\, health\, infrastructure\, counties\, and social protection.\nPublic Debt Dynamics & Fiscal Sustainability: Trends in debt servicing\, debt-to-GDP ratio\, and emerging fiscal risks.\nBudget Implementation Challenges: Revenue underperformance\, execution bottlenecks\, pending bills\, accountability and governance issues.\nImplications for Professionals & Businesses: Strategic insights for accountants\, tax practitioners\, CFOs\, and financial managers.\nFuture Budget & Policy Outlook: Emerging trends and possible scenarios for FY2026/27 and beyond.\n\nTarget Audience \nAudit and tax practitioners\, Personnel handling tax issues in organizations\, Representatives from KRA\, Taxpayers’ association(s)\, Accountants\, Finance Professionals\, Auditors\, Chief Finance officers\, Academia. \nContinuous Professional Development Units (CPD Units): \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 5 CPD Units upon successfully attending the session. \nCost: \n\n\n\nCategory\nPhysical\nVirtual\n\n\nAssociates\n Kes.5\,500.00 – per delegate\nKes. 5\,000.00 – per delegate\n\n\nMembers\n  Kes.5\,500.00 – per delegate\n Kes. 5\,000.00 – per delegate\n\n\nNon-members\n  Kes.5\,500.00 per delegate\n Kes.5\,000.00 – per delegate\n\n\n\nOnline Booking: \nWe call on Seminar participants to note that booking 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.   This is available either online at www.icpak.com/events  or on the ICPAK Live – A smart phone-based application that is available from google store. \nNational Industrial Training Authority (NITA) Reimbursement: \nThe Institute is registered as a trainer with the National Industrial Training Authority.

SUMMARY:Technical competency development forum for associate members only 2026
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nTechnical competency development forum for associate members Only 2026\nTheme: Strengthening Technical Excellence and Professional Competence in a Digitally Evolving Accounting Landscape\nDate: 25th – 26th February 2026\nTime: 9.00am – 4.00pm\nVenue: Virtual \nOverview \nThe accountancy profession remains central to economic growth\, organizational efficiency\, and financial accountability. Accountants uphold transparency\, regulatory compliance\, and ethical conduct\, thereby protecting the public interest and reinforcing trust in financial systems. As business environments become more complex and technology rapidly evolves\, the profession has expanded beyond traditional bookkeeping into areas such as auditing\, taxation\, financial management\, advisory services\, and data analytics firmly positioning accountants as strategic partners in driving organizational success. \nToday\, the profession is undergoing significant transformation due to shifting accounting standards\, regulatory reforms\, and the global push for enhanced sustainability reporting. New standards such as IFRS 17\, IFRS 18\, and Sustainability Reporting S1 & S2 guidelines require professionals to maintain strong technical competence and adaptability within principles-based frameworks. Ethical standards remain at the core of practice\, with IFAC emphasizing integrity\, independence\, and objectivity as non-negotiable values. At the same time\, accountants must navigate an increasingly digital environment where cybersecurity awareness\, data privacy obligations\, and AML/CFT compliance form a critical part of their responsibilities. \nDigital transformation has fundamentally reshaped how accountants work. Tools powered by artificial intelligence\, machine learning\, data analytics\, blockchain\, and cloud-based platforms have automated routine processes and elevated the accountant’s role from transaction recorder to strategic advisor. Modern professionals must be proficient in technologies such as Power BI\, RPA\, and cloud-based ERPs to generate insights\, strengthen internal controls\, enhance forecasting\, and support risk management. These digital capabilities allow accountants to provide deeper business intelligence and contribute to forward-looking decision-making. \nBeyond technical expertise\, the future of the profession also relies heavily on strong communication and interpersonal skills. The ability to present complex financial information clearly\, influence stakeholders\, lead teams\, and support organizational change initiatives is increasingly essential. Accountants who combine technical excellence with leadership\, emotional intelligence\, and strategic thinking stand out in today’s competitive landscape. This evolving environment calls for continuous learning\, ensuring that new entrants and associate members remain adaptable\, informed\, and equipped with future-ready skills that enhance the value and credibility of the finance function. \nKey Topics for Discussion \n\nOverview of the Recent Development in Accounting Standards Affecting the Accounting Profession\nDigital Tools for Accountants – (Data Analytics\, Block Chain\, Cloud Based Audit Tools\, Machine Learning\, Power BI)\nCybersecurity Awareness for Accountant Professionals – (Data protection\, cyber threats and fraud prevention)\nAML & CFT (Anti-Money Laundering and Combating the Financing Of Terrorism)\nProfessional Conduct and Regulatory Compliance\n\n\nICPAK Code of ethics for accountants\nHandling ethical dilemmas and maintaining professional integrity\n\n\nThe Power of Public Speaking\nSoft skills – communication\, professional presence\, adaptability\, problem-solving\nTransitioning from Associate to full member: Key steps to assist in the process\nOverview of ICPAK Membership requirements and how to fulfil good standing status\n\nTarget Audience \nThe program is open to ICPAK Associate Members only. \nContinuous Professional Development Units (CPDs): \nUpon successful attendance of all sessions\, associate members will earn 10 Structured CPD Hours. \nFinancial Commitment: \nThe mentorship program is free for ICPAK Associate Members. \nOnline Booking: \nRegistration: Delegates are reminded to note that online booking for the webinar is mandatory on https://www.icpak.com/event-registration/Online Booking We call on workshop participants to note that booking is available only online at www.icpak.com and will close one day before the training session.

SUMMARY:The 34th Economic Symposium (virtual option)
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nTHE 34th ECONOMIC SYMPOSIUM\nTheme: Productivity to Prosperity: Re-shaping Key Sectors for a Future-Ready Economy \nDate: 18th – 20th February 2026\nVenue: Virtual Delivery \nOVERVIEW \nThe Kenyan economy is currently navigating a difficult period\, with signs of strain evident across multiple sectors. Labour market performance remains subdued\, characterised by slow growth in formal employment and a persistent decline in real wages. A significant proportion of newly created jobs continue to emerge within the informal sector—typically low-paying\, unstable\, and with limited social protection—thereby undermining broader economic welfare. \nAt the macro-fiscal level\, tax revenue has consistently fallen short of expectations\, with the World Bank reporting an average tax revenue slippage of 6.1% over the past three years. At the same time\, public debt has risen sharply to approximately 71.9% of GDP\, with the widening fiscal deficit increasingly financed through domestic borrowing. These dynamics collectively place the country at a high risk of debt distress. This indicates that without decisive and sustained fiscal reforms including implementation of the adopted national tax policy\, Kenya is likely to face prolonged budgetary pressures and constrained economic resilience. \nDespite these challenges\, Kenya’s medium-term outlook offers cautious optimism. Projections for 2026 indicate an expected GDP growth rate of 5.3%\, supported by improved performance in agriculture and industry as well as the continued implementation of targeted government interventions. While these forecasts point to some recovery\, it is widely acknowledged that growth prospects beyond 2025 remain tempered by persistent structural weaknesses and ongoing fiscal vulnerabilities. Moreover\, the sustainability of the projected growth trajectory depends heavily on a stable and supportive global economic environment. \nDomestically\, unlocking higher and more inclusive growth will require enhanced policy measures aimed at strengthening governance\, curbing endemic corruption\, addressing the implications of Kenya’s FATF grey listing\, and deepening participation in regional and international trade. Only through such comprehensive reforms can the country translate modest recovery signals into lasting economic resilience. \nSustained economic transformation requires more than short-term growth spurts—it demands deliberate\, long-range strategic interventions that enhance productivity across key sectors. As economies navigate complex global challenges—ranging from shifting. \ngeopolitical dynamics\, technological disruptions\, climate change\, to demographic transitions—productivity has emerged as the defining lever for resilience and competitiveness. \nKenya’s development aspirations\, as outlined in the Vision 2030\, the Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA)\, and other national frameworks\, place strong emphasis on sectoral revitalization\, industrial upgrading\, digitalization\, and skills development. However\, persistent productivity gaps continue to constrain the pace of growth\, limit value addition\, depress job creation\, and slow structural transformation. \nThe 2026 Economic Symposium offers a unique platform for the public and private sectors\, academia\, development partners\, and industry experts to reflect on the country’s productivity landscape\, diagnose sector-specific bottlenecks\, and co-create pathways for transforming productivity gains into broad-based prosperity. The theme “From Productivity to Prosperity: Re-shaping Key Sectors for a Future-Ready Economy” signals a shift from incremental reforms to bold\, systemic changes that prepare the economy for the future of work\, future markets\, and future technologies. \nAs Kenya positions itself within a rapidly evolving global economy\, boosting productivity across key sectors is no longer optional—it is imperative. The 2026 Economic Symposium provides the platform to reimagine strategies\, harness new opportunities\, and champion sectoral reforms that move the country from productivity to prosperity. Through collaborative action and forward-looking dialogue\, stakeholders can accelerate the transformation toward a resilient\, inclusive\, and future-ready economy. \nThe symposium therefore seeks to deepen understanding\, strengthen collaboration\, and ignite national commitment toward accelerating productivity improvements within critical sectors of the economy. It aims to build consensus on strategic actions necessary to elevate Kenya’s competitiveness\, foster inclusive growth\, and create a sustainable economic base capable of withstanding global volatility. \nThe symposium will be structured around high-impact sectoral and cross-cutting areas such as: \n\n Macroeconomic Trends\, Fiscal Pressures & Labour Market Dynamics\n\n\nUnderstanding Kenya’s subdued labour market: low formal job growth\, real wage erosion\, and informality\nDrivers of revenue underperformance and tax slippage\nPublic debt distress risks and implications for economic stability\n\n\nStrengthening Fiscal Governance & Implementing the National Tax Policy\n\n\nAddressing structural weaknesses in domestic revenue mobilisation\nEnhancing tax administration efficiency and compliance\nFiscal consolidation measures and expenditure rationalisation strategies\n\n\nGovernance\, Anti-Corruption & Compliance Reform Imperatives\n\n\nTackling endemic corruption as a productivity drain\nImplications of Kenya’s FATF grey listing and required national reforms\nGovernance and institutional strengthening as preconditions for sustainable growth\n\n\n Revitalising High-Potential Sectors: Agriculture\, Industry & Services\n\n\nAddressing structural bottlenecks in agriculture and enhancing value-chain competitiveness\nIndustrial upgrading\, MSME strengthening\, and expanding manufacturing output\nProductivity opportunities within tourism\, digital services\, finance\, and logistics\n\n\nDigitalization\, Technology & Innovation as Productivity Accelerators\n\n\nLeveraging AI\, automation\, and digital platforms to improve firm-level and sector-wide productivity\nBuilding robust digital infrastructure and cybersecurity capacity\nSupporting innovation ecosystems and technology adoption among MSMEs\n\n\nHuman Capital Development & Preparing for the Future of Work\n\n\nSkills gaps and workforce readiness amidst technological disruption\nAligning education and training systems with industry needs\nLabour market reforms to boost productivity and enhance job quality\n\n\nBuilding Inclusive and Sustainable Economic Systems\n\n\nTransitioning from low-quality informal employment to higher-value job creation\nGreen growth\, climate-smart interventions\, and resilience-building strategies\nEnhancing social protection and inclusive development mechanisms\n\n\nEnhancing Regional & Global Trade Competitiveness\n\n\nStrengthening participation in regional value chains\nTrade facilitation\, export competitiveness\, and market diversification\nPositioning Kenya within the global economy amidst geopolitical shifts\n\n\nCo-Creating a National Productivity Agenda for 2030 and Beyond\n\n\nAligning Vision 2030\, BETA\, and sectoral strategies for transformative productivity\nPublic–private collaboration in investment\, innovation\, and sector reform\nDesigning long-range productivity frameworks for resilience and prosperity\n\nTARGET AUDIENCE \nThis economic symposium is not limited to the accountancy profession only\, staff from other units are highly encouraged to attend. \n  \nCONTINUOUS PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT UNITS \nMembers of ICPAK and those from other reciprocating professional bodies will earn 20 CPD units upon successfully attending all conference sessions. \nFINANCIAL COMMITMENT: \n\n\n\nCategory\nCharges Physical \nVirtual \n\n\nAssociate Members\nKes 40\,000 per Delegate\nKes. 25\,000\n\n\nFull Members\nKes. 45\,000 per Delegate\nKes. 25\,000\n\n\nNon-Member\nKes. 50\,000 per Delegate\nKes. 25\,000\n\n\n\nONLINE BOOKING: \nWe call on seminar participants to note that booking is available only online at www.icpak.com/events. \nDelegates are reminded to note that online booking for training sessions is MANDATORY.   This is available either online at www.icpak.com/events  or on the ICPAK Live – A smart phone-based application that is available from google store. \nNATIONAL INDUSTRIAL TRAINING AUTHORITY (NITA) REIMBURSEMENT: \nThe Institute is registered as a trainer with National Industrial Training Authority.

SUMMARY:Reporting on IPSAS Accrual-Practical Course (virtual option)
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: Virtual Delivery\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.

SUMMARY:INPAS Practical Course on Reporting for Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs) virtual option
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 – Virtual Delivery \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.
