Stress Management and Resilience for Professionals
Date: 3rd March 2026
Time: 04.00pm-06.00pm
Venue: Virtual Delivery
Overview
Life doesn’t pause when you feel overwhelmed. Deadlines still loom, assignments, laundry etc still pile up, and people will still need you. And yet, some seem to cope better than others. Maybe you have noticed your co-worker stays calm even under intense pressure, your partner /significant others don’t panic the way you do when your kids act out. It’s easy to wonder what they know that you don’t or what’s wrong with you. The answer? Nothing. It’s likely that these people just have a higher tolerance for stress than you do.
Stress resilience refers to the ability to bounce back faster from stressful moments, and luckily, it’s a skill that can be built. Here’s everything you need to know about stress resilience is, how to develop the skill over time, and ways to channel stress in a healthy way. After all, stress is inevitable, but breakdown doesn’t have to be.
Workplace stress is a silent but costly issue affecting both employees and organizations, causing costs to soar in terms of absenteeism and lost productivity. It may seem more people than ever are feeling stressed, and that perception may reflect the reality that more people, in fact, are experiencing higher levels of distress.
What is Stress, and its impact on us?
Stress has been defined as the subjective state of sensing potentially adverse changes in the environment that signifies potential or actual threat that requires immediate changes in behavior as well as modification of future behaviors.
When you think about the impact of stress on our bodies, minds and our lives, lets consider that responses to stress are intended to be adaptive. For instance, faced with imminent threat to our physical safety, having higher heart rate allows delivery of more rich oxygen to our bodies and to our muscles more quickly.
What is stress resilience?
Stress resilience is one’s ability to recover from pressure, setbacks or emotional strain. Ironically, you mya not realize how strong yours is until you hit a speed bump. Think of it as an emotional immune system – just as your body knows how to fight off illnesses, you mind and nervous system are built to respond to stress. Resilience is what you to process that stress and keep moving forward.
No matter what happens to you, stress resilience allows you to stay grounded and find your footing again. And from breathwork to movement, there are many tools to help you build it.
It is against this background that ICPAK has organized this evening forum to enlighten professionals on stress triggers and build resilience.

Recognize stress triggers
Create “me’ time sessions frequently
Meditation
Adopt new routines.
Stay connected and make new friends.
See problems through a different lens.
Seeking help with problems.

Overview of INPAS Standards webinar
2026-03-05 16:00 - 18:00 | Virtual Delivery
THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
Overview of INPAS Standards webinar
Date: 5th March 2026
Time: 04.00pm-06.00pm
Venue: Virtual Delivery
Overview
The International Non-Profit Accounting Standard (INPAS) represents a landmark development in financial reporting for the non-profit sector. Launched in October 2025 as the first globally recognized accounting standard specifically designed for non-profit organizations (NPOs), INPAS provides a unified, accrual-based framework tailored to the unique characteristics of nonprofits. Unlike traditional standards such as IFRS or national GAAP, which primarily serve for-profit entities, INPAS addresses sector-specific challenges including diverse funding sources, donor restrictions, and grant reporting. It emerged from the International Financial Reporting for Non-Profit Organisations (IFR4NPO) project, led by CIPFA and Humentum, following extensive global consultations over six years involving stakeholders from more than 40 countries.
INPAS is built upon the foundation of the IFRS for SMEs Accounting Standard, adapting and extending it to better reflect non-profit realities. It applies to small, medium, and large NPOs that use accrual accounting, offering guidance for preparing whole-of-entity financial statements that meet the needs of a wide range of users, including donors, regulators, and beneficiaries. The standard emphasizes producing transparent, credible, and comparable financial reports while reducing inconsistencies that arise when NPOs apply multiple or mismatched frameworks across jurisdictions and funders.
A core objective of INPAS is to enhance transparency, accountability, and trust in non-profit finances worldwide. It tackles long-standing issues such as the recognition and measurement of grants and donations, the clear distinction and presentation of restricted versus unrestricted funds, and the integration of meaningful narrative reporting alongside financial data. By providing specific rules for these areas, INPAS helps ensure that financial statements deliver decision-useful information, enabling stakeholders to better understand an organization’s resource allocation, performance, and compliance with donor intentions.
The standard covers comprehensive recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure requirements customized to non-profit activities and funding models. It includes a Practice Guide for harmonized grant reporting, which aims to streamline compliance across different funders and significantly reduce the administrative burden on NPOs that previously faced duplicative or conflicting reporting demands. This harmonization is expected to improve efficiency, cut compliance costs, and foster greater consistency in how financial information is communicated globally.
INPAS promotes comparability across borders and organizations, allowing donors, governments, and the public to more reliably assess and compare non-profits regardless of location or size. ICPAK has endorsed the use of the standards and early uptake is anticipated to build credibility and support informed decision-making. The standard’s standalone nature means NPOs can apply it independently, though publicly accountable entities must make appropriate disclosures if choosing INPAS over full IFRS.
Overall, INPAS marks the non-profit sector’s alignment with the kind of standardized, high-quality financial reporting long available to for-profit entities. By establishing a single, sector-dedicated benchmark, it seeks to strengthen donor confidence, facilitate cross-border operations, and ultimately contribute to more effective and trustworthy non-profit work worldwide. As implementation progresses, ongoing guidance and resources from the International Non-Profit Reporting Foundation (INPRF) will support the transition for organizations adopting the standard. Join us for this webinar to get more insights on the standard.
Target Audience:
All professionals working in the NPO Sector, external auditors, consultants, academia and other interested professionals.

Members of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 2 Structured CPD Units upon successfully completion of the webinar.

Overview
This is a practical course intended to provide finance professionals, accountants, auditors, and business owners with hands-on skills that can enable them to competently navigate through Kenya’s evolving tax compliance environment. As the tax authorities increasingly emphasize accuracy, transparency, and timeliness of submission of returns, organizations and individuals have to fortify their understanding of statutory requirements, apart from the practical processes involved in completing various tax returns. This course has been designed to bridge the gap between theoretical tax knowledge and day-to-day realities associated with filing returns under multiple tax categories.
This will give participants the learning experience that is practical and interactive, similar to a real-life compliance procedure. Through demonstrations, system walkthroughs, and guided exercises, delegates will walk away with confidence in carrying out tasks of tax filing on platforms such as iTax, preparation of supporting documentation, and interpretation of key tax laws that inform filings. The course will also bring into focus common errors, audit triggers, and compliance risks that organizations should proactively look out for to avoid penalties, interest, and reputational exposure.
This course targets professional practitioners in finance, accounting, auditing, tax advisory, compliance, and business operations. It will also be of practical use to entrepreneurs and owners of SMEs who want to meet their tax obligations in an efficient and consistent manner. Delivered over two days, this course simplifies concepts into a structured approach that enables the participants to apply the learned concepts immediately within their work environments. The session also provides ample time for sharing knowledge, learning from each other, and seeking clarification on emerging issues in tax administration.
By the end of the programme, participants will have developed their competence in preparing and filing various tax returns, reconciling records, interpreting relevant legislation, and aligning their processes with best practice. The practical focus of the training will ensure that delegates leave with real skills that enhance not only their individual capability but also that of the organization in terms of tax compliance.

Webinar IFRS 15 - Revenue from contracts with customers
2026-03-24 16:00 - 18:00 | Virtual Delivery
THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
IFRS 15 – Revenue from contracts with customers
Date: 24th March 2026
Time: 4.00pm-6.00pm
Venue: Virtual
Overview
Before IFRS 15 came into effect, revenue recognition in Kenya was guided by a patchwork of older standards—mainly IAS 11 (Construction Contracts) and IAS 18 (Revenue)—each with differing principles and inconsistent application across industries. This created challenges in comparability and interpretation, especially for entities with complex or long-term contracts.
The introduction of IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers, effective January 2018, revolutionized revenue recognition by introducing a single, principles-based model applicable to all industries. IFRS 15 established a clear five-step framework for recognizing revenue, ensuring that financial statements reflect the amount and timing of revenue that truly represents the transfer of goods or services to customers.
For Kenyan businesses, correct application of IFRS 15 is critical in promoting trust, consistency, and transparency among investors, lenders, regulators, and clients. The standard continues to be the cornerstone for how companies—from construction and telecommunications to financial services and technology—measure and report revenue from customer contracts. As entities integrate digital business models, performance-based contracts, and subscription services, revisiting IFRS 15’s requirements remain crucial for accurate reporting and compliance.
ICPAK has organized this webinar to discuss the following key areas:

Introduction to IFRS 15
The 5-step revenue recognition model
Types of contracts and transaction prices

Complex Contract Scenarios & Multi-Element Arrangements: Recognition challenges in bundled goods, services, and performance obligations.

Types of warranties under IFRS 15
Presentation and disclosure requirements

Variable Consideration & Revenue Estimation Updates: Latest guidance on handling discounts, rebates, and contingent payments.

Target Audience
This workshop will be useful to all professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the profession.
CPD Units
Members of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 2 CPD Units upon successfully attending each of the sessions.

ISA for less complex entities
Date: 31 March 2026
Time: 04.00pm-06.00pm
Venue: Virtual Delivery
Overview
Large complex organizations typically require a more in-depth application of these full ISAs given their scope of business and applicability. However, many small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and less complex entities (LCEs) often face challenges in applying full ISAs in a way that suits their unique structures and needs.
The introduction of the International Standards on Auditing (ISA) for less complex entities (LCEs) is a response to the growing recognition that smaller and less complex organizations face unique challenges in complying with full ISAs. These standards are intended to reduce the burden of compliance while maintaining the integrity and quality of audits.
This course is designed to help auditors understand and apply ISA specifically tailored for Less Complex Entities (LCEs). It aims to bridge the gap between the International Standards on Audits (ISA) and the operational realities of SMEs.
The following topics will be covered:

Introduction to ISA for Less complex entities

Background
The rationale for ISA for Less complex entities
Public interest overriding consideration

Differences between ISA for Less complex entities and existing ISAs
Core concepts of ISA for Less Complex entities

Fundamental Concepts, General Principles and Overarching Requirements
Audit Evidence and Documentation
Engagement Quality Management
Acceptance or Continuance of an Audit Engagement and Initial Audit Engagements
Planning
Risk Identification and Assessment
Responding to Assessed Risks of Material Misstatement
Concluding
Forming an Opinion and Reporting
Audits of Group Financial Statements

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

Auditors working with small and medium-sized entities (SMEs) and less complex entities (LCEs).
Audit firms seeking to enhance their audit practices for smaller clients.

Professionals involved in the development, implementation, and application of auditing standards for SMEs.

Accounting and auditing students who aim to specialize in auditing LCEs
Supervisors in external audit, internal audit and compliance

ISA 315-Risk Of Material Misstatements webinar
2026-04-07 16:00 - 18:00 | Virtual Delivery
THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
ISA 315-Risk Of Material Misstatements webinar
Date: 7th April 2026
Time: 4:00-6:00PM
Venue: Virtual
Overview
Today the audit landscape is experiencing unprecedented changes characterized by complex business models, rapid digital transformation, heightened fraud risks and growing regulatory scrutiny. Despite these changes, it is imperative to underscore the fact that the ability of an auditor to effectively identify and assess risks of material misstatement is the foundation of audit quality. At the heart of this process lies ISA 315 (Revised), the standard that governs how auditors understand entities, their environments, and related risks.
This 2-hour practical webinar is designed to provide audit practitioners with a clear, applied, and contemporary understanding of ISA 315, with emphasis on its revised requirements, enhanced risk assessment procedures, and stronger linkage between risk identification and audit responses.
The session will examine how auditors are expected to:

Develop a deep understanding of the entity and its environment
Evaluate information systems and internal controls
Identify and assess inherent and control risks
Incorporate the impact of technology, automation, and digital systems
Strengthen professional skepticism and fraud risk assessment

Particular focus will be placed on practical application, including documentation expectations, common inspection findings, and how weak risk assessment directly undermines audit quality. The webinar will also highlight regulatory and practice challenges within the Kenyan context, helping practitioners align with both international standards and local oversight expectations.
By the end of the session, participants will have enhanced confidence in applying ISA 315 effectively, strengthening audit planning, improving audit responses, and delivering higher-quality, risk-focused assurance engagements.
Target Audience
This training is not limited to accountancy only, staff from other units are highly encouraged to attend.

Evening Networking Forum-Mental Health (virtual option)
2026-04-15 16:00 - 18:00 | Virtual Delivery
INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
Evening Networking Forum- Mental Health
Theme- Strengthening Wellbeing, Resilience, and Professional Performance Through Mental Health Awareness
Time: 04pm-06pm
Date: 15th April 2026
Venue- Zoom
Overview:
Mental health has emerged as a central pillar of professional effectiveness, resilience, and sustainable performance. For accountants, auditors, finance professionals, and business leaders, mental health awareness is critical in navigating high-pressure environments, tight deadlines, regulatory scrutiny, and stakeholder expectations. It encompasses the ability to recognize, understand, and manage one’s own mental and emotional wellbeing, while also fostering supportive relationships and healthy work environments.
A strong foundation in mental health awareness enhances self-care, stress management, emotional regulation, and resilience. Professionals equipped with these skills are better able to maintain focus, make sound decisions under pressure, manage work-related stress, and engage constructively with colleagues, clients, and stakeholders. Recognizing early warning signs, developing coping strategies, and accessing support are vital competencies that enable individuals and teams to thrive, even in high-stakes professional contexts.
Organizations and professional environments that prioritize mental health see tangible benefits in performance, collaboration, and innovation. Teams with mentally healthy work cultures demonstrate higher engagement, psychological safety, accountability, and adaptive capacity. Leaders who model and promote mental wellbeing create environments where individuals feel supported, empowered, and motivated to contribute meaningfully. As professional workplaces contend with long hours, complex client demands, and remote or hybrid work dynamics, mental health awareness has become essential for sustainable professional growth and organizational resilience.
This Evening Networking Forum offers participants an opportunity to deepen their understanding of mental health while engaging in a physical, interactive setting. Through guided discussions, scenario-based activities, and practical exercises, participants will explore strategies to manage stress, maintain resilience, and support colleagues’ mental wellbeing. The session blends learning with networking, allowing participants to practice insights in real interpersonal interactions in a supportive environment.
A practical component, The Mental Health Mirror, enables participants to reflect on personal stress triggers, coping mechanisms, and behavioral patterns that affect wellbeing. Peer-based exercises reinforce understanding, encourage empathy, and provide a safe space to practice stress management and self-care strategies while receiving constructive feedback.
In recognition of the importance of mental health in professional performance and leadership effectiveness, the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) has organized this Evening Networking Forum. The session is designed to inspire self-awareness, promote resilience, and empower participants to integrate mental health strategies into their professional and personal lives.
The forum is designed to cover the following areas:

Foundations of Mental Health for Professionals
Mental Health and Professional Effectiveness
The Mental Health Mirror: Guided Self-Reflection and Practical Application
Applying Mental Health Awareness in Real Workplace Scenarios
Networking with Mental Health Awareness

Target Audience:
This forum is designed for professionals from all industries and experience levels who are looking to improve their ability to manage stress and build resilience in their careers

IFRS 5-Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations webinar
2026-04-21 16:00 - 18:00 | Virtual Delivery
THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
IFRS 5-Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations
Date: 21st April 2026
Time: 4:00- 6:00PM
Venue: Virtual
Overview
Today’s business environment is increasingly dynamic, characterized by frequent restructurings, divestments, mergers, and strategic exits. These developments have significantly increased the occurrence of assets held for sale and discontinued operations, making their correct accounting more critical than ever. Accurate classification, measurement, and presentation under IFRS 5 are essential to safeguarding the credibility of financial statements and ensuring transparent communication to investors and other key stakeholders.
IFRS 5 provides the authoritative framework for the consistent and transparent accounting of such transactions. However, its practical application often presents complex judgment areas, particularly in fast-evolving business situations. This webinar is therefore designed to equip professional accountants with a clear, practical, and compliance-focused understanding of IFRS 5. The emphasis is on real-world implementation challenges encountered during asset disposals, business restructuring, and strategic repositioning.
The session will focus on how to:

Determine when an asset or disposal group qualifies as “held for sale”
Apply the appropriate measurement requirements at fair value less costs to sell
Identify and present discontinued operations accurately
Assess the impact on profit or loss, cash flows, and the statement of financial position
Navigate complex judgment areas, including abandoned sales, reclassification, and impairment interactions

The webinar will adopt a practical, application-driven approach, highlighting common misclassifications, disclosure gaps, and key audit and regulatory expectations. Participants will also gain insight into how IFRS 5 interfaces with other relevant standards, including IFRS 3, IAS 36, IFRS 16, and IFRS 10.
By the end of the session, participants will be better positioned to apply IFRS 5 with confidence and by so doing enhance the quality and transparency of financial reporting. This is envisaged to minimize compliance risk and communicate more effectively on discontinued operations and asset disposals.
Target Audience
This training is primarily meant for preparers of financial statements and assurance professionals although not limited to accountancy practitioners only, staff from other units are highly encouraged to attend.
Continuous Professional Development Units
Members of ICPAK and those from other reciprocating professional bodies will earn 2 CPD units upon successfully attending all conference sessions.

• Implications for performance reporting
Discounting Techniques and Financial Assumptions

Anti–Money Laundering: Requirements for Accounting Professionals Webinar

Anti–Money Laundering: Requirements for Accounting Professionals Webinar
DATE: 16th June 2026
TIME: 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM
Mode: Virtual
Overview
Anti-money laundering (AML) requirements for accounting professionals stem from global efforts to prevent the integration of illicit funds into the legitimate economy. The Financial Action Task Force (FATF), an international body, sets standards through its 40 Recommendations, designating accountants as “gatekeepers” vulnerable to exploitation when providing services such as managing client funds, forming companies, handling real estate transactions, or advising on tax matters. These recommendations emphasize a risk-based approach, requiring professionals to assess and mitigate money laundering and terrorist financing risks effectively.
Under FATF guidelines, accounting firms must implement customer due diligence (CDD) measures when engaging in specified activities on behalf of clients. This includes verifying client identity, understanding the nature of the business relationship, and identifying beneficial owners of legal entities. Enhanced due diligence is required for high-risk clients, such as politically exposed persons (PEPs) or those from jurisdictions with weak AML controls, while simplified measures may apply in low-risk scenarios.
Accounting professionals are obligated to conduct firm-wide risk assessments to identify vulnerabilities based on client types, services offered, and geographic factors. Policies, controls, and procedures must be documented and regularly updated, proportionate to the firm’s size and complexity. This includes appointing a compliance officer (often called a Money Laundering Reporting Officer in some jurisdictions) responsible for oversight and ensuring staff receive ongoing training to recognize suspicious activities.
A core requirement is the monitoring of client transactions and relationships for red flags, such as unusually large cash movements, complex structures without economic purpose, or links to high-risk countries. If suspicion arises, professionals must file a Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) to the relevant financial intelligence unit without tipping off the client, balancing this with professional ethics and confidentiality obligations.
Record-keeping is mandatory, with firms required to retain identification documents, transaction records, and risk assessment evidence for at least five years (or longer in some jurisdictions). This supports audits by supervisory bodies and enables traceability in investigations. Non-compliance can result in significant penalties, including fines, license revocation, or criminal prosecution.
Ultimately, AML compliance protects the integrity of the accounting profession, mitigates reputational and legal risks, and contributes to global financial security. Firms are encouraged to use technology for efficient screening and monitoring while staying abreast of regulatory updates through guidance from bodies like FATF, CCAB, or national supervisors. Join us for this webinar to get useful insights on the obligations placed on accounting professionals on matters AML

Overview
The auditing profession is experiencing significant transformation driven by evolving stakeholder expectations, regulatory scrutiny, technological advancements, and increasing complexity in business reporting. Investors, regulators, and the public continue to demand greater confidence in the quality of audits and the robustness of assurance processes.
In response to these developments, the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (IAASB) introduced a new suite of Quality Management Standards comprising ISQM 1, ISQM 2, and ISA 220 (Revised). These standards represent a fundamental shift from a compliance-based quality control approach to a proactive, risk-based quality management framework that emphasizes continuous monitoring, remediation, and accountability.
As firms across jurisdictions continue implementing and refining their quality management systems, practitioners face common challenges including governance and leadership responsibilities, resource constraints, technology integration, engagement quality reviews, and regulatory expectations. At the same time, differences in regulatory environments and market maturity offer valuable lessons that can be shared across countries and regions.
This webinar seeks to provide a global perspective on audit quality management by exploring practical experiences, implementation challenges, and emerging best practices from different jurisdictions.
Topical areas of discussion:

Enhance understanding of the global shift from quality control to quality management.
The Global Audit Quality Landscape
Understanding the New Quality Management Framework
Common challenges and lessons learned in establishing effective quality management systems.
Explore the role of technology, data analytics, and innovation in enhancing audit quality.
Provide insights into emerging regulatory expectations and future trends in audit quality management

As the IFRS 18 – Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements marks one of the most significant structural shifts in global financial reporting since the inception of IFRS. The Standard introduces a more consistent and decision-useful approach to how financial performance is presented, classified and communicated. By redefining subtotals, standardizing the classification of operating, investing and financing activities, and elevating the role of management-defined performance measures, IFRS 18 is expected to significantly enhance comparability across entities, industries and jurisdictions. This reform responds directly to long-standing user concerns regarding the lack of consistency in performance presentation under IAS 1, and the excessive use of non-GAAP metrics that previously contributed to opacity and inconsistency across reporting landscapes.
Beyond structural realignment, IFRS 18 emphasizes clearer disaggregation, improved linkage between notes and primary statements, enhanced transparency of performance metrics, and stronger alignment between management commentary and actual business performance portrayal. The new approach shifts reporting away from broad discretionary presentation towards more standardized, principle-aligned categorization that reflects how entities generate returns and deploy economic resources. As a result, subtotals such as operating profit are expected to become more reliable, analytical comparability will be reinforced, and perception gaps for investors, analysts, regulators and rating agencies will be narrowed.
The shift introduced by IFRS 18 is not just technical, it is strategic. Entities will need to reassess their reporting models, mapping of income and expenses, definitions of performance, investor communication frameworks and disclosure architecture. Internal reporting structures may require alignment with external presentation to ensure credibility and cross‑validation. System updates, chart‑of‑accounts restructuring, data model reviews and presentation consistency will be central implementation matters. Preparers, reviewers, auditors and governance boards will therefore require a transition mindset that goes beyond compliance interpretation and focuses on impact understanding, internal readiness and organizational adaptation.
With global adoption timelines accelerating and the first effective year commencing 2027, jurisdictions and reporting entities are encouraged to prepare early to minimize transition friction. Capacity building, awareness and forward alignment will be critical, particularly for practitioners who will be expected to interpret, evaluate, audit and advise on the new presentation model. It is in response to this transition landscape and in readiness for implementation clarity, ICPAK is convening this training to equip the profession with forward-looking insights, technical understanding and preparatory orientation to enable timely, confident and informed transition into IFRS 18 application.
Topics to be covered will include:

Understanding the IFRS 18 framework and replacement of IAS 1
Standardized operating, investing and financing categories
New subtotals, performance metrics and disaggregation expectations
Linking management performance measures and entity performance narratives
Transition planning, disclosure redesign and internal alignment considerations
Practical implications for preparers, reviewers, auditors and governance roles

IAS 10-Events After the Reporting Period webinar

IAS 10-Events After the Reporting Period
Date: 14th July 2026
Time: 4.00-6.00PM
Venue: Virtual
Overview
In today’s volatile business environment, events occurring after the reporting period can have a significant impact on financial reporting. This volatility is driven by economic shocks, regulatory changes, shifting tax regimes, climate-related risks and unexpected operational disruptions. IAS 10 provides the essential framework for identifying, assessing, adjusting for and disclosing such events to ensure quality financial reporting.
IAS 10 safeguards the integrity of financial reporting between the reporting date and the date of authorization for issue. However, many entities struggle to correctly distinguish between adjusting and non-adjusting events. This often leads to misstatements, delayed disclosures and ultimately qualified audit opinion. Common challenges arise in areas such as post-year-end litigation, tax assessments, restructurings, going concern uncertainties and major economic developments. This webinar is therefore designed to provide clear, practical and compliance-focused guidance on the application of IAS 10.
The session will focus on how to:

Distinguish between adjusting and non-adjusting events
Determine when post-reporting period information requires adjustment
Apply appropriate disclosure requirements for material non-adjusting events
Assess the impact on the going concern assumption
Navigate key judgment areas, including estimates, litigation and post-year-end transactions

The webinar will take a practical, implementation-driven approach. It will address common misclassifications, disclosure gaps, regulatory expectations and audit inspection findings. Participants will also briefly examine how IAS 10 interacts with IFRS 18, IAS 37, IAS 12, and IFRS 5.
By the end of the session, participants will be able to apply IAS 10 with confidence and sound professional judgment. This will strengthen the credibility of financial reporting, reduce post-reporting compliance risk, ensure users receive transparent, timely and decision-useful information.
Target Audience
This webinar is designed for professional accountants involved in financial reporting, audit, and assurance functions.

Culture of Care in the Corporate Workspace
Date: 21st July 2026
Time: 04.00 pm-06.00 pm
Delivery Mode: Zoom /Online
Overview
Mental health has emerged as one of the most critical workplace issues of our time, affecting employees across all professions, industries and organizational tiers. The relentless demands of modern corporate environments, amplified by economic pressures, rapid technological disruptions, personal challenges and evolving workplace expectations have contributed to rising levels of stress, anxiety, burnout, depression etc.
Simultaneously, substance abuse continues to pose deep, systemic challenges within organizations, silently eroding employee well-being, team dynamics, and overall institutional performance. The misuse of alcohol, prescriptions drugs and other substances manifest heavily on corporate balance sheets through chronic absenteeism, present physical but mentally disengaged (presenteeism). Comprises decision making, operational safety hazards, escalating healthcare costs.
Accountants, finance experts, business leaders, doctors just to name a few often operate in high-pressure ecosystems characterized by demanding workloads, uncompromising compliance deadlines and significant fiduciary responsibilities. These make them vulnerable to psychological risks. Yet despite growing awareness, mental health and substance abuse remain shrouded in stigma, frequently preventing individuals from seeking timely intervention. Today organizations are promoting psychological well-being not as a human resource preference but a strategic necessity.
It is against this background that this webinar has been designed to create a platform for open, stigma free dialogue to equip individuals and organizational leaders with the practical strategies required to identify risks early, foster a culture of care, building resilient, psychologically safes workplaces.
Key topics to be covered include:

Understanding mental health in the workplace
Substance Abuse and its workplace implications
Recognizing warning signs and executing early interventions
Building a mentally healthy and psychologically safe workplace
Promoting resilience and personal self-care
