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. \nBeyond 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. \nThe 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. \nWith 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. \nTopics to be covered will include: \n\nUnderstanding the IFRS 18 framework and replacement of IAS 1\nStandardized operating\, investing and financing categories\nNew subtotals\, performance metrics and disaggregation expectations\nLinking management performance measures and entity performance narratives\nTransition planning\, disclosure redesign and internal alignment considerations\nPractical implications for preparers\, reviewers\, auditors and governance roles\n\n Target 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.

The Finance Bill\, 2026 was presented as part of the ordinary fiscal and budgetary cycle and proposed amendments to various tax laws\, including income tax\, value added tax\, excise duty\, tax procedures\, miscellaneous fees and levies\, stamp duty and the road maintenance levy framework. Following public participation\, parliamentary scrutiny and approval\, the Bill became the Finance Act\, 2026\, providing the legal framework for implementing revenue measures intended to strengthen collection\, improve compliance\, close loopholes and support Kenya’s 2026/27 budget priorities. \nAlthough the Finance Act primarily focuses on revenue measures\, its significance lies in how the resources mobilized are translated into public value. For citizens\, businesses and policy practitioners\, the critical question is whether budget allocations are implemented efficiently\, transparently and equitably to improve public services\, strengthen livelihoods and support inclusive economic growth. \nThe ICPAK Townhall Deliberation will therefore bring together members of the public\, institutional stakeholders and policy practitioners to review the Finance Act\, 2026\, examine the link between revenue mobilization and budget implementation\, and discuss how fiscal decisions can translate into measurable service delivery outcomes. \n\n Purpose of the Town Hall\n\nThe purpose of the town hall is to provide an open\, informed and participatory platform for stakeholders to deliberate on the Finance Act\, 2026 and the implementation of the national budget. The session will connect policy design with practical service delivery concerns by examining how fiscal measures affect citizens\, businesses\, institutions and public programmes. \n\n Objectives\n\n\nTo provide stakeholders with a clear overview of the Finance Act\, 2026 and its implications for budget implementation.\nTo discuss the relationship between domestic revenue mobilisation\, public expenditure and service delivery outcomes.\nTo identify priority implementation issues affecting citizens\, businesses and policy practitioners.\nTo promote dialogue on accountability\, transparency and public participation in the budget cycle.\nTo generate practical recommendations for strengthening the link between budget allocations\, implementation and service delivery.\n\n\n Key Discussion Areas\n\n\nFinance Bill to Finance Act: Overview of the legislative process\, public participation\, parliamentary approval and Presidential assent.\nRevenue mobilization and tax administration: Key amendments introduced by the Finance Act\, including compliance measures\, digital tax administration\, broadening of the tax base and implications for taxpayers.\nBudget priorities and allocations: Review of how the 2026/27 budget aligns with national development priorities\, fiscal discipline and inclusive growth objectives.\nFrom allocation to implementation: Examination of how approved budgets are translated into programmes\, projects and services at national and local levels.\nService delivery outcomes: Discussion on whether budget implementation is improving access\, quality\, efficiency and equity in public services.\nAccountability and transparency: Mechanisms for monitoring expenditure\, tracking performance and strengthening citizen oversight.\nStakeholder concerns and recommendations: Reflections from policy practitioners\, civil society\, businesses and the public on practical reforms needed to improve fiscal governance.\n\n\n Target Participants\n\nThe town hall will target members of the public\, policy practitioners\, public finance management experts\, civil society organizations\, professional associations\, private sector representatives\, academia\, media\, youth and community representatives\, and officials involved in planning\, budgeting\, revenue administration\, implementation and oversight. \n\n Proposed Format\n\n\nOpening remarks and framing of the town hall theme.\nExpert presentation on the Finance Act\, 2026 and key budget implementation issues.\nPanel discussion with policy practitioners\, public finance experts and stakeholder representatives.\nModerated plenary session for questions\, comments and proposals from participants.\nSynthesis of key messages\, recommendations and agreed follow-up actions.\n\n\n Expected Outcomes\n\n\nImproved stakeholder understanding of the Finance Act\, 2026 and its implications for the 2026/27 budget.\nClearer appreciation of the connection between revenue measures\, budget execution and service delivery.\nDocumented stakeholder views on priority fiscal\, implementation and service delivery concerns.\nPractical recommendations to strengthen transparency\, accountability and responsiveness in budget implementation.\nEnhanced public participation and dialogue between citizens\, policy practitioners and institutions responsible for fiscal governance.\n\n\n Conclusion\n\nThe transition from budget formulation to service delivery requires more than legal and fiscal approval. It depends on effective implementation\, accountable institutions\, informed citizens and continuous stakeholder engagement. The proposed town hall will provide a timely platform to review the Finance Act\, 2026\, assess budget implementation priorities and generate practical proposals for ensuring that public resources deliver tangible and measurable benefits to citizens.

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. \nIAS 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. \nThe session will focus on how to: \n\nDistinguish between adjusting and non-adjusting events\nDetermine when post-reporting period information requires adjustment\nApply appropriate disclosure requirements for material non-adjusting events\nAssess the impact on the going concern assumption\nNavigate key judgment areas\, including estimates\, litigation and post-year-end transactions\n\nThe 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. \nBy 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. \nTarget Audience \nThis webinar is designed for professional accountants involved in financial reporting\, audit\, and assurance functions. \nContinuous Professional Development Units \nMembers of ICPAK and those from other reciprocating professional bodies will earn 2 CPD units upon successfully attending all conference sessions. \nFINANCIAL COMMITMENT: \n\n\n\nCategory\nVirtual \n \n\n\nAssociate Members\nKes. 1\,000\n \n\n\nFull Members\nKes. 1\,000\n \n\n\nNon-Member\nKes. 1\,000\n \n\n\n\nNote: This is virtual training and therefore training materials\, meals and other related provisions are not required. \nOnline Booking: \nWe call on seminar participants to note that booking is available only online at www.icpak.com/events.

Unlike IQ\, which measures cognitive ability\, EI combines thinking and feeling to support self-awareness\, emotional regulation\, and authentic decision-making. It enables individuals to manage their reactions\, meet emotional needs\, and navigate situations with clarity and intention. Because EI predicts effectiveness and can be developed over time\, it offers a unique pathway to personal fulfillment and professional success. \nIn modern workplaces\, EI is increasingly recognized as a strategic competency that enhances communication\, strengthens trust\, and enables professionals to respond ethically under pressure. For accountants\, auditors\, finance practitioners\, and business leaders\, EI plays a pivotal role in managing stakeholder expectations\, upholding integrity\, and maintaining composure in high-stakes environments. By identifying emotional triggers and managing emotional hijacking\, professionals cultivate the resilience and sound judgment required in complex and demanding roles. \nA strong grounding in Emotional Intelligence supports self-awareness\, emotional regulation\, empathy\, and social competence skills that enable individuals to manage conflict effectively\, give constructive feedback\, and lead with authenticity. In fields where technical expertise is expected\, EI becomes a key differentiator that enhances ethical behavior\, client care\, decision-making\, and leadership effectiveness. Professionals with high EI are better equipped to adapt to change\, handle stress\, and respond calmly in workplaces characterized by tight deadlines and regulatory scrutiny. \nBeyond the individual level\, EI has become central to building healthy organizational cultures. Teams with strong emotional intelligence demonstrate greater collaboration\, accountability\, innovation\, and psychological safety. Leaders who apply EI foster inclusive environments where people feel respected\, motivated\, and empowered to perform at their best. As organizations confront growing complexity\, diversity\, and evolving work dynamics\, EI has emerged as a critical driver of trust\, agility\, and long-term performance. \nIt is in recognition of this growing importance that ICPAK has organized the Evening Networking Forum. The session provides professionals with an opportunity to deepen their understanding of Emotional Intelligence through guided discussions\, real-life scenarios\, and practical exercises. Participants will explore their emotional strengths\, practice empathy-centered communication\, and learn how EI influences leadership\, teamwork\, and conflict management. By blending learning with live networking\, the forum equips attendees to apply EI concepts immediately while strengthening their professional connections and personal growth journeys. \nThe forum is designed to cover the following topics: \nIntroduction to Emotional Intelligence \n\nDefinition\, principles\, and components of Emotional Intelligence\nUnderstanding emotions and responses\nWhy EI matters in modern professional practice\nDifference between EQ and IQ\n\n\nHow emotional intelligence differs from other intelligences\n\n\npractical: Analyze personal emotional triggers\n\nAssessing and Developing Emotional Intelligence \n\nConducting an emotional intelligence test\nBuilding self-awareness and self-motivation\nPracticing self-regulation techniques\nUsing journaling for self-reflection\nCreate an EI development plan\n\nThe EI Mirror: Guided Self-Reflection and Practical Application \n\nStructured emotional self-assessment aligned to workplace dynamics\nIdentifying emotional triggers\, communication styles\, and behavioural blind spots\nPeer-based reflection exercise focusing on empathy and active listening\nGroup debrief synthesizing personal insights and improvement strategies\n\nSocial Competencies and Empathy \n\nDeveloping empathy in workplace interactions\nEnhancing relationship management skills\nBuilding social skills for collaboration\nUsing active listening techniques\n\nEmotional Intelligence and Professional Effectiveness \n\nRole of EI in leadership\, ethical decision-making\, and interpersonal influence\nEnhancing teamwork\, client engagement\, and stakeholder communication\nManaging stress\, feedback\, and conflict in high-pressure environments\n\nApplying Emotional Intelligence at Work \n\nPracticing assertive communication\nApplying work etiquette and professionalism\n\n TARGET AUDIENCE: \nThis workshop will be useful to all Professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the Profession\, Team leaders\, managers\, and supervisors\, Public sector\, private sector\, and NGO professionals\, Entrepreneurs and business owners \nCONTINUOUS PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT UNITS (CPD UNITS):\nMembers of ICPAK and those from reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 2 Structured CPD Units upon successful completion of the workshop. \nFINANCIAL COMMITMENT:\nThe workshop charges are Kshs. 2\,000.

As organizations continue to enhance their sustainability reporting in response to global reporting requirements\, there is a growing need for assurance practitioners and reporting professionals to understand the principles\, requirements\, and application of sustainability assurance engagements. \nTo address this need\, the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (IAASB) issued the International Standard on Sustainability Assurance (ISSA) 5000\, General Requirements for Sustainability Assurance Engagements\, which establishes a comprehensive global baseline for sustainability assurance. ISSA 5000 responds to the rapidly evolving sustainability reporting landscape\, including the adoption of the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) standards\, regional sustainability disclosure requirements\, and stakeholder expectations for credible and decision-useful sustainability information. \nAs sustainability assurance becomes increasingly relevant to organizations across sectors\, practitioners must understand how ISSA 5000 addresses unique sustainability assurance considerations\, including materiality assessments\, value chain information\, estimation uncertainty\, forward-looking information\, and the use of experts. \nThis webinar will provide participants with insights into the application of ISSA 5000 and its implications for assurance practitioners\, preparers\, regulators\, and other stakeholders involved in sustainability reporting and assurance. \nTopical areas; \n\nUnderstanding Sustainability Assurance Engagements\nPlanning and Performing Sustainability Assurance Engagements\nEvidence Gathering and Documentation\nMateriality\, Value Chain Information\, and Use of Experts\nInternal Controls and Assurance Readiness\nReporting and Communication under ISSA 5000\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.

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.

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.

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.

While these pressures can drive innovation and productivity\, they can also lead to prolonged stress\, burnout\, reduced performance\, and diminished well-being when not managed effectively. In this context\, stress management and resilience have become essential competencies for sustainable professional performance. \nStress is a natural response to workplace demands. However\, when it remains unmanaged\, it can affect physical health\, emotional well-being\, decision-making\, productivity\, and professional relationships. For accountants\, auditors\, finance professionals\, and business leaders who often work in high-pressure settings\, the ability to manage stress while maintaining sound professional judgment is critical. \nResilience enables professionals to adapt positively to challenges\, recover from setbacks\, and remain focused during periods of uncertainty and change. It goes beyond coping with pressure; it is the capacity to learn\, grow\, and thrive despite adversity. Resilient professionals demonstrate emotional intelligence\, adaptability\, optimism\, and effective problem-solving skills\, which strengthen leadership\, teamwork\, communication\, and overall organizational performance. \nCreating mentally healthy workplaces requires shared commitment from both individuals and organizations. Leaders play a key role in fostering supportive environments that promote open communication\, psychological safety\, work-life balance\, and proactive stress management. Organizations that invest in employee well-being and resilience benefit from stronger engagement\, reduced absenteeism\, improved collaboration\, and higher levels of innovation and performance. \nThis webinar will equip participants with practical knowledge and evidence-based strategies for managing workplace stress and building resilience in demanding professional environments. Through expert presentations\, practical exercises\, and interactive discussions\, participants will learn how to recognize stress indicators\, strengthen emotional resilience\, improve coping mechanisms\, and maintain performance while safeguarding their mental well-being. \nRecognizing that resilient professionals are better positioned to deliver high-quality services\, exercise sound judgment\, and lead effectively through change\, the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) has organized this webinar to support members in strengthening stress management\, resilience\, and personal well-being. The programme is designed to help professionals sustain long-term performance while contributing to healthier\, more productive\, and more resilient workplaces. \n Topics To Be Covered \n\n Understanding Workplace Stress\n\n\nCommon sources of stress in professional environments\nEffects of prolonged stress\, pressure\, and burnout\nEarly warning signs and indicators of stress\n\n\n Building Personal Resilience\n\n\nKey characteristics of resilient professionals\nDeveloping adaptability\, emotional resilience\, and optimism\nMaintaining focus and performance under pressure\n\n\n Practical Strategies for Managing Stress\n\n\nEffective time\, priority\, and workload management\nPractical coping techniques\, mindfulness\, and recovery practices\nMaintaining healthy boundaries and work-life balance\n\n\n Creating a Healthy Professional Lifestyle\n\n\nPromoting personal well-being and sustainable professional habits\nBuilding supportive workplace relationships and communication practices\nDeveloping a personal resilience action plan\, followed by Q&A\n\nTarget Audience: \nThis webinar will be useful to all professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the profession\, Internal and External Auditors\, Consultants and Advisors \nContinuous Professional Development Units (CPDs):\nMembers of ICPAK and those from reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 2 Structured CPD Units upon successful completion of the workshop. \nFinancial Commitment:\nThe workshop charges are Kshs. 1\,000.

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. \nINPAS 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. \nA 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. \nThe 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. \nINPAS 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. \nOverall\, 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. \n Target 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.

It promotes a proactive and effective approach to quality management\, encouraging firms to design a system tailored to their specific circumstances. ISQM 1 replaces ISQC 1\, which focuses on quality control for firms performing audits and reviews of financial statements and related services engagements. The objective is to ensure that the firm and its personnel fulfill their responsibilities and engagements in accordance with professional standards and legal requirements. Quality management is core to audit\, and a detailed understanding of the importance of both audit quality and quality management underlines the performance of an audit. Quality is a key part of ensuring that audits are fit for purpose and retain the public trust. \nThe International Standard on Quality Management 2 (ISQM 2) outlines the scope of engagements subject to an engagement quality (EQ) review\, the appointment and eligibility of the EQ reviewer\, and their responsibilities. The objective is to objectively evaluate significant judgments made by the engagement team and their conclusions. ISQM 2 applies to all engagements required to perform an EQ review in accordance with ISQM 1\, effective for audits and reviews of financial statements and assurance and related services engagements. \nTarget Audience: \nThis webinar will be useful to all professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the profession\, Internal and External Auditors\, Consultants and Advisors \nContinuous Professional Development Units (CPDs):\nMembers of ICPAK and those from reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 2 Structured CPD Units upon successful completion of the workshop. \nFinancial Commitment:\nThe workshop charges are Kes. 1\,000.

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. \nThe 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. \nThis 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. \nKey Topics to Be Covered: \n\nIntroduction to ISA for Less Complex Entities\n\n\nBackground\nThe rationale for ISA for Less complex entities\nPublic interest overriding consideration\n\n\nDifferences between ISA for Less Complex Entities and existing ISAs\nCore concepts of ISA for Less Complex Entities\n\n\nFundamental Concepts\, General Principles and Overarching Requirements\nAudit Evidence and Documentation\nEngagement Quality Management\nAcceptance or Continuance of an Audit Engagement and Initial Audit Engagements\nPlanning\nRisk Identification and Assessment\nResponding to Assessed Risks of Material Misstatement\nConcluding\nForming an Opinion and Reporting\nAudits of Group Financial Statements\n\n Target Audience : \nThis course will be useful to professionals in the Audit and accounting sector with bias on assurance professionals and specifically: \n\nAuditors working with small and medium-sized entities (SMEs) and less complex entities (LCEs).\nAudit firms seeking to enhance their audit practices for smaller clients.\n\n\nProfessionals involved in the development\, implementation\, and application of auditing standards for SMEs.\n\n\nAccounting and auditing students who aim to specialize in auditing LCEs\nSupervisors in external audit\, internal audit and compliance\nMid-level managers looking to enhance their auditing skills\n\n\nIndividuals responsible for overseeing audits or teams involved in auditing\n\nYour Financial Commitment  \nCharges for the training will be Kes 1\,000/= which will cover workshop fees\, materials\, and e-certificates of attendance. \nCPD Units  \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 2 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.

These audits evaluate the effectiveness of an organization’s policies\, procedures\, and controls designed to detect\, prevent\, and report money laundering and terrorist financing activities. Auditors assess whether the institution maintains a robust risk-based approach\, adhering to standards set by bodies such as the Financial Action Task Force (FATF)\, local regulators\, and international guidelines. The primary goal is to identify weaknesses that could expose the organization to financial crime risks\, reputational damage\, or regulatory penalties. Successful audits require a combination of technical expertise\, independence\, and a thorough understanding of evolving threats in the global financial ecosystem. \nThe planning phase sets the foundation for a successful AML/CFT audit. Auditors begin by defining the scope\, objectives\, and timeline\, considering factors like the institution’s size\, customer base\, product offerings\, and geographic operations. A comprehensive risk assessment is conducted to prioritize high-risk areas\, such as correspondent banking\, trade finance\, or dealings with high-risk jurisdictions. Documentation review includes examining the AML/CFT policy framework\, customer due diligence (CDD) procedures\, and transaction monitoring systems. Engagement with key stakeholders\, including compliance officers and senior management\, helps align expectations and gather preliminary insights. Proper planning ensures resources are allocated efficiently and that the audit remains focused on material risks. \nRisk assessment forms the core of the audit methodology. Auditors evaluate the institution’s enterprise-wide risk assessment to determine if it accurately identifies\, measures\, and mitigates AML/CFT exposures. This involves analysing customer risk profiles\, enhanced due diligence (EDD) for politically exposed persons (PEPs)\, and sanctions screening processes. Data analytics tools are often employed to review transaction patterns\, flag suspicious activities\, and test the effectiveness of automated monitoring systems. Qualitative factors\, such as staff training programs and the “tone from the top” in fostering a culture of compliance\, are also scrutinized. Any gaps in risk identification can indicate systemic vulnerabilities that require immediate attention. \nFieldwork and testing procedures involve detailed examination of controls and operations. Auditors perform walkthroughs of key processes\, sample testing of customer files for proper KYC (Know Your Customer) documentation\, and validation of suspicious activity report (SAR) filings. Independent testing of transaction monitoring rules helps verify detection accuracy and false positive rates. Interviews with frontline staff and compliance teams reveal practical implementation challenges. Technology audits may include assessing the reliability of core banking systems and data integrity. These hands-on activities ensure that theoretical policies translate into effective day-to-day practices. \nEvaluation of findings focuses on the adequacy and effectiveness of the AML/CFT program. Auditors rate controls as effective\, partially effective\, or ineffective based on evidence gathered. Common deficiencies include inadequate customer identification\, weak ongoing monitoring\, or insufficient independent testing of the compliance function. Root cause analysis is performed to understand underlying issues\, such as resource constraints or outdated technology. The audit team also benchmarks the institution against industry best practices and regulatory expectations\, providing a holistic view of compliance maturity. This step is crucial for prioritizing remediation efforts. \nThe reporting and follow-up stage closes the audit cycle with actionable recommendations. A clear\, well-structured report is delivered to management and the board\, highlighting strengths\, weaknesses\, and prioritized remedial actions with timelines. Follow-up mechanisms ensure that agreed-upon corrective measures are implemented and tested in subsequent reviews. Continuous monitoring and periodic re-audits help adapt to emerging risks\, such as those posed by new technologies like cryptocurrencies or virtual assets. Ultimately\, a well-conducted AML/CFT audit strengthens the organization’s defenses\, promotes regulatory adherence\, and contributes to the broader fight against financial crime. \nTarget Audience: \nThe webinar will be useful to accountants\, auditors\, academia\, and other designated professionals interested AML and CFT audit \n Continuous Professional Development Units (CPDs):\nMembers of ICPAK and those from reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 2 Structured CPD Units upon successful completion of the workshop. \nFinancial Commitment:\nThe workshop charges are Kshs. 1\,000.

In an increasingly complex business environment characterized by evolving regulatory requirements\, technological advancements\, heightened stakeholder expectations\, and emerging risks\, audit firms and engagement teams are under greater pressure to consistently deliver high-quality audit engagements. \nRecognizing the need to strengthen audit quality\, the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (IAASB) introduced a new suite of quality management standards\, including International Standard on Auditing (ISA) 220\, Quality Management for an Audit of Financial Statements. The revised standard shifts the focus from traditional quality control procedures to a proactive and risk-based approach to quality management at the engagement level. \nISA 220 places greater responsibility on the engagement partner for managing and achieving quality throughout the audit engagement. The standard emphasizes leadership\, professional skepticism\, appropriate direction and supervision of engagement teams\, effective use of resources\, and ongoing evaluation of whether quality objectives are being achieved. It also aligns with International Standard on Quality Management ISQM 1 and ISQM 2\, creating a comprehensive framework for managing audit quality at both the firm and engagement levels. \nAs firms continue to implement quality management systems\, it is essential for engagement partners\, managers\, auditors\, and quality reviewers to understand their responsibilities under ISA 220 and how these requirements translate into practical actions throughout the audit lifecycle. Effective application of the standard contributes to improved audit execution\, stronger documentation\, enhanced professional judgment\, and greater confidence in audit opinions. \nThis webinar will provide participants with practical insights into the requirements of ISA 220 (Revised)\, the role of the engagement partner in achieving audit quality\, and best practices for embedding quality management into audit engagements across different jurisdictions and practice environments. \n\nUnderstanding the New Quality Management Framework\nCommon challenges and lessons learned in establishing effective quality management systems.\nInteraction between ISA 220 (Revised)\, ISQM 1\, and ISQM 2\nLeadership responsibilities for managing and achieving quality on audits\nFirms system of quality management and role of engagement teams\nRelevant ethical requirements\, including those related to independence\nRole and responsibilities of the engagement partner\nConsultation & documentation requirements\n\nTarget Audience: \nThis webinar will be useful to all professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the profession\, Internal and External Auditors\, Consultants and Advisors \nContinuous Professional Development Units (CPDs):\nMembers of ICPAK and those from reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 2 Structured CPD Units upon successful completion of the workshop. \nFinancial Commitment:\nThe workshop charges are Kshs. 1\,000.

By recognizing assets\, liabilities\, revenues\, and expenses when they occur\, it provides a fuller and more accurate view of an entity’s financial position and performance. \nMoving to IPSAS Accrual is more than an accounting change; it reshapes how public sector organizations plan\, manage\, and report finances. It supports better cost analysis\, asset and liability management\, long-term planning\, and evidence-based policy and budgeting. \nDespite progress\, many entities still face challenges in recognition\, measurement\, asset management\, employee benefits\, revenue recognition\, disclosures\, and IPSAS-compliant reporting. Addressing these requires continuous professional development and strong knowledge of accrual principles and IPSAS updates. \nThe changing public financial management environment calls for greater consistency\, comparability\, and accountability in reporting. Effective IPSAS Accrual application improves stewardship\, audit outcomes\, compliance\, and public trust by ensuring financial information reflects the substance of transactions. \nThis webinar will offer practical insights into IPSAS Accrual principles\, including recognition\, measurement\, presentation\, and disclosure requirements. Through examples\, discussions\, and case scenarios\, participants will explore common challenges and practical ways to improve public sector reporting. \nICPAK has organized this webinar to equip members with practical knowledge and current developments in IPSAS Accrual\, strengthening technical competence and supporting consistent application for transparency\, accountability\, and effective stewardship of public resources. \nKey topics to be covered \n\n Introduction to IPSAS Accrual\n\n\nPrinciples of accrual accounting\nBenefits of IPSAS Accrual\nCurrent implementation developments\n\n\n Key Recognition and Measurement Requirements\n\n\nRecognition of assets and liabilities\nRevenue and expense recognition\nPractical examples\n\n\n Preparing IPSAS-Compliant Financial Statements\n\n\nPresentation and disclosure requirements\nCommon implementation challenges\nGood reporting practices\n\n\n Practical Implementation Insights\n\n\nLessons learned from IPSAS implementation\nEmerging developments\nInteractive discussion and participant questions\n\nTarget Audience: \nThis webinar will be useful to all professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the profession\, Internal and External Auditors\, Consultants and Advisors \nContinuous Professional Development Units (CPDs):\nMembers of ICPAK and those from reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 2 Structured CPD Units upon successful completion of the workshop. \nFinancial Commitment:\nThe workshop charges are Kshs. 1\,000.
