SUMMARY:Effective Whistleblowing policies and practices webinar
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nEffective Whistleblowing policies and practices webinar\nDate:  1st September 2026\nTime: 04.00pm-06.00pm\nVenue: Virtual Delivery \nOverview \nOrganizations today operate in an environment where accountability\, transparency\, and ethical leadership are increasingly demanded by regulators\, investors\, employees\, and the public. As fraud\, corruption\, harassment\, and other forms of misconduct continue to threaten institutional credibility and sustainability\, whistleblowing has emerged as a critical governance tool for early detection and timely intervention. However\, the effectiveness of whistleblowing largely depends on whether organizations have well-designed frameworks that encourage reporting and ensure that concerns are handled professionally and fairly. \nA strong whistleblowing policy provides a structured foundation for reporting unethical practices and misconduct while defining clear responsibilities for management\, audit committees\, compliance officers and internal audit functions. It establishes the scope of reportable issues\, sets out reporting procedures and creates accountability mechanisms that ensure disclosures are treated seriously. Without such a policy\, organizations risk inconsistent handling of cases\, loss of trust\, and increased exposure to reputational and financial damage. \nFor whistleblowing systems to work\, organizations must provide secure reporting channels and guarantee confidentiality to protect whistleblowers from exposure. Equally important is the establishment of safeguards against retaliation\, as fear of victimization remains one of the biggest barriers to reporting. By reinforcing protection measures and ensuring impartial investigations and proper case handling procedures\, institutions strengthen internal control systems and create confidence that wrongdoing will be addressed without bias or intimidation. \nDelegates will gain a comprehensive understanding of employer responsibilities\, the protections available to whistleblowers\, and the essential steps required to strengthen whistleblowing and speak-up policies. Participants will be equipped with practical insights on designing secure reporting frameworks\, ensuring confidentiality safeguards\, managing retaliation risks\, and enhancing investigation and case-handling procedures to build a credible and effective whistleblowing system. \n\nIntroduction to whistleblowing and the Legal Framework\nEstablishing Secure Reporting Channels and Confidentiality – Anonymous reporting mechanisms\, Confidentiality safeguards and data protection\, Third-party reporting systems and independence\nWhistleblower Protection and Managing Retaliation – \nInvestigations and Case Handling Procedures\nFostering a Supportive Culture –Building openness and transparency\, Characteristics of a supportive environment for whistleblowers\, Effective communication strategies\, Internal and external support resources\nBuilding a Speak-Up Culture and Ethical Leadership\n\nTarget Audience: \nThis workshop will be useful to all Professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the Profession\, Data and Business Analysts\, Governance\, Risk\, and Compliance (GRC) Officer\, Auditors\, Advisors\, Investors and Financial Analysts \n Continuous Professional Development Units (CPD UNITS): \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 2 Structured CPD Units upon successfully completion of the webinar. \nFinancial Commitment \nThe webinar charges are Kshs. 1\,000.

SUMMARY:IFRS 16-Leases Webinar
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nIFRS 16-Leases Webinar\nDate: 8th September 2026\nTime: 04.00pm-06.00pm\nVenue: Virtual Delivery \nOverview \nThe adoption of IFRS 16: Leases is one of the most significant changes in financial reporting in recent years. This has fundamentally transformed the accounting treatment of lease transactions. The standard adopted a unified lessee accounting model\, requiring lessees to recognize leases in the statement of financial position by establishing a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability. \nDespite IFRS 16 having been effective for several years\, financial statement reviews continue to reveal inconsistencies in lease identification\, measurement\, reassessment\, and disclosure practices. Additionally\, evolving business models\, economic uncertainties\, and complex contractual arrangements continue to create new challenges for preparers and auditors of financial statements. \nProfessional accountants in practice play a critical role in supporting organizations to achieve compliance with IFRS 16 through the preparation\, review\, audit\, and interpretation of financial statements. As businesses continue to adopt increasingly complex leasing arrangements\, there is a growing need for accountants to strengthen their understanding of the practical application of IFRS 16 and emerging implementation issues. \nThe webinar seeks to bridge knowledge gaps and equip professional accountants with practical skills necessary to apply IFRS 16 effectively while enhancing compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). \nBy the end of the webinar\, participants will be able to: \n\nApply the key recognition and measurement principles of IFRS 16.\nIdentify contracts that contain leases.\nCalculate and account for lease liabilities and right-of-use assets.\nAccount for lease modifications and reassessments.\nEvaluate disclosure requirements under IFRS 16.\nIdentify and address common compliance challenges in lease accounting.\nImprove the quality and consistency of financial reporting relating to leases.\n\nTarget Audience \nThis training is primarily intended for preparers of financial statements and assurance professionals\, though not limited to accountancy practitioners; staff from other units are highly encouraged to attend.  \nContinuous Professional Development Units (CPD UNITS): \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 2 Structured CPD Units upon successfully completion of the webinar. \nFinancial Commitment \nThe webinar charges are Kshs. 1\,000. Charges will cater for online video access fees\, learning materials\, and e-certificates of attendance. \nOnline Booking \nRegistration: Delegates are reminded to note that online booking for the workshop 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. \nNational Industrial Training Authority (NITA) Reimbursement \nThe Institute is registered as a trainer with National Industrial Training Authority.

SUMMARY:Enhancement of compliance from reviews webinar
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nEnhancement of Compliance from Reviews webinar\nDate: 22nd September 2026\nTime: 04.00pm-06.00pm\nVenue: Virtual Delivery \nOverview \nThe Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) conducts practice reviews and quality assurance assessments to promote adherence to professional standards\, ethical requirements\, and regulatory obligations among accounting professionals and firms. These reviews provide valuable feedback on the effectiveness of quality management systems\, audit methodologies\, documentation practices\, independence requirements\, and compliance with applicable professional standards. The findings and recommendations arising from such reviews offer an opportunity for firms and practitioners to identify weaknesses and implement measures that strengthen compliance and improve the quality of professional services. \nThe purpose of this initiative is to enhance compliance through the effective implementation of recommendations arising from ICPAK reviews. By addressing identified gaps and strengthening internal controls\, firms can improve adherence to professional and ethical standards\, reduce the risk of regulatory breaches\, and enhance the quality and reliability of their services. The initiative seeks to foster a culture of continuous improvement and accountability within professional practice. \nTo achieve this objective\, firms will review and analyze findings from ICPAK review reports\, develop corrective action plans\, and implement measures to address identified deficiencies. This will include reviewing and updating policies and procedures\, strengthening quality management systems\, improving documentation and record-keeping practices\, and providing targeted training to staff on professional and regulatory requirements. Periodic internal reviews and monitoring activities will also be undertaken to assess progress and ensure sustained compliance. \nThe expected outcome of this initiative is improved compliance with ICPAK requirements\, professional standards\, and ethical obligations. Enhanced compliance will contribute to higher-quality audit\, assurance\, and accounting services\, strengthen stakeholder confidence\, and reduce the recurrence of findings in future reviews. In addition\, stronger governance\, risk management\, and internal control processes will support the long-term sustainability and reputation of firms and practitioners. \nThe reviews serve as an important mechanism for promoting professional excellence and regulatory compliance within the accounting profession. By proactively addressing review findings and implementing recommended improvements\, firms and practitioners can strengthen their compliance frameworks\, improve service quality\, and uphold the highest standards of professionalism and ethical conduct. \nTraining areas \n\nOverview of ICPAK Practice Reviews and areas of improvement\nISQM 1 and ISQM 2 Compliance\nEthics and Independence Requirements\nApplication of International Standards on Auditing (ISAs)\nMonitoring and Internal Compliance Reviews\nAnti-Money Laundering (AML) and Counter-Terrorism Financing Compliance\nImplementation of Review Recommendations\nTechnology and Quality Management\n\nTarget Audience \nThis webinar will be useful to all professional Accountants.  \n Continuous Professional Development Units (CPD UNITS): \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 2 Structured CPD Units upon successfully completion of the webinar. \nFinancial Commitment \nThe webinar charges are Kshs. 1\,000.
