SUMMARY:THE INTERNAL AUDIT\, RISK\, AND FORENSIC CONFERENCE 2026
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nTHE INTERNAL AUDIT\, RISK\, AND FORENSIC CONFERENCE 2025\nTheme: From Controls to Intelligence: Redefining Integrity through Risk and Forensic Insight\nDate: 30th November – 4th December 2026\nVenue: Sarova Whitesands Beach Resort & Spa\, Mombasa\nTime: 09.00am–03.30pm \nOVERVIEW \nOrganizations today operate in environments defined by speed\, complexity\, and interconnected systems. Decisions are increasingly driven by digital platforms\, automated processes\, and real-time data flows. While governance frameworks and internal controls remain essential\, recent experiences across sectors have demonstrated that traditional control-based assurance models\, on their own\, are no longer sufficient to detect emerging risks or prevent organizational failure. \nModern risk exposure has evolved into sophisticated threats including cyber-enabled fraud\, insider manipulation\, data integrity risks\, money laundering schemes\, weak governance oversight\, and ethical blind spots embedded within organizational culture. These risks often materialize subtly\, amplified by technology\, fragmented accountability\, and delayed responses. Assurance functions must therefore move beyond static checklists and adopt intelligence-driven approaches that anticipate\, detect\, and respond to risk in real time. \nInternal audit functions are increasingly expected to act as strategic partners to Boards and senior management\, providing forward-looking assurance and insight rather than retrospective reviews. This evolution requires stronger integration of risk intelligence\, data analytics\, forensic methodologies\, and governance oversight. Forensic accounting\, once viewed primarily as a reactive investigative tool\, is now a critical component of proactive risk management\, supporting early detection of irregularities and strengthening accountability mechanisms. \nAt the same time\, organizations face heightened regulatory scrutiny\, growing public expectations for transparency\, and increasing pressure to demonstrate ethical leadership. Whistleblowing systems\, audit trails\, anti-money laundering controls\, and ethical culture are no longer optional safeguards but essential pillars of institutional credibility. Professionals charged with safeguarding these systems must therefore possess not only technical competence\, but also judgment\, resilience\, and the ability to navigate complex risk landscapes. \nAgainst this backdrop\, the Internal Audit\, Risk\, and Forensic Conference provides a strategic forum for practitioners\, regulators\, and organizational leaders to examine how assurance functions can evolve from control-focused compliance roles into intelligence-led enablers of integrity and trust. Through expert insights\, practical case studies\, and cross-sector dialogue\, the conference will explore how risk intelligence and forensic insight can be leveraged to strengthen accountability\, protect value\, and enhance organizational resilience in an increasingly uncertain environment. \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES \nThis program is divided into the following modules covering various aspects. \n\n\n\nDAY\nMODULE \nTOPICS\n\n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nDAY 1\nInternal Audit in a Rapidly Evolving Environment \n \n\n\nIndependence\, objectivity\, and stakeholder expectations\nStrategic alignment with organizational goals\nCollaboration with external audit and assurance providers\n\n\n\n\nAudit Technology and Intelligent Risk Detection \n \n\n\nContinuous auditing and monitoring tools\nAutomation\, AI\, and data analytics in audit practice\nCybersecurity and digital forensics\n\n\n\n\nAudit Trails and Transaction Monitoring for Accountability \n \n\n\nDesigning robust audit trails\nTransaction reconstruction and data integrity\nDetecting anomalies through monitoring systems\n\n\n\n\n  \nDAY 2\nRisk-Based Auditing and Internal Control Frameworks \n \n\n\nCOSO and ISO 31000 in practice\nLinking risk assessment to audit planning\nEvaluating control effectiveness\n\n\n\n\nGovernance Structures and Oversight of Risk \n \n\n\nBoard and audit committee responsibilities\nRisk ownership and accountability\nIntegrating governance with enterprise risk management\n\n\n\n\nForensic Accounting and Financial Statement Fraud \n \n\n\nPrinciples and techniques of forensic investigations\nFraud indicators and red flags\nLessons from forensic case studies\n\n\n\n\n  \nDAY 3\nAnti-Money Laundering and Financial Crime Risks \n \n\n\nAML frameworks and regulatory expectations\nTechnology-enabled financial crime detection\nCrypto-assets\, fintech risks\, and cross-border trends\n\n\n\n\nCorporate Scandals and Assurance Failures \n \n\n\nHow controls and governance systems break down\nLessons from global and regional cases\nStrengthening accountability and reform measures\n\n\n\n\nWhistleblowing Frameworks and Ethical Accountability \n \n\n\nDesigning effective reporting mechanisms\nProtecting whistleblowers and managing retaliation risks\nEthical responsibilities of leadership and professionals\n\n\n\n\n  \n  \nDAY 4\nEthical Culture\, Behaviour\, and Fraud Risk \n \n\n\nCulture as a driver of ethical or unethical conduct\nLinking ethics to risk management\nBuilding sustainable ethical environments\n\n\n\n\nProfessional Resilience and Well-being in Assurance Roles \n \n\n\nManaging stress in high-pressure audit and risk functions\nEmotional resilience and mental well-being\nDecision-making under uncertainty and sustaining professional judgment\n\n\n\n\n\n CONTINUOUS PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT UNITS \nMembers of ICPAK and other reciprocating professional bodies will earn 20 Structured CPD points upon successfully attending the Internal Audit\, Risk\, and Forensic Conference. \nTARGET AUDIENCE  \nThe Conference is open to all Accountant Professionals\, Audit Practitioners\, Senior Management\, Risk Professionals\, CEOs\, and Boards. \nCONFERENCE CHARGES: \n\n\n\nDetails\nAmount\n\n\nAssociate Members\nKShs 54\,000 per Delegate\n\n\nFull Members\nKShs. 59\,000 per Delegate\n\n\nNon-Member\nKShs. 64\,000 per Delegate\n\n\nAccommodation**\nDelegates are advised to make own accommodation arrangements\n\n\n\nNATIONAL INDUSTRIAL TRAINING AUTHORITY (NITA) REIMBURSEMENT \nThe Institute is registered as a trainer with the National Industrial Training Authority.

SUMMARY:THE 32ND EXECUTIVE SEMINAR
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nTHE 32nd  EXECUTIVE SEMINAR\nDate: 7th -11th December 2026 \nVenue: Pullman Dubai Creek City Centre\nTheme: Leadership Excellence through Vision and Influence  \nTime: 09.00am-03.30pm \nOVERVIEW \nEffective executive leadership is the cornerstone of organizational success\, serving as the guiding force that aligns resources\, inspires people\, and navigates challenges toward sustainable growth. Leaders at the executive level set the tone for organizational culture\, drive strategic initiatives\, and bear ultimate responsibility for performance outcomes. Their ability to balance short-term operational demands with long-term vision distinguishes thriving organizations from those that stagnate. In today’s volatile business environment\, marked by rapid technological change and global competition\, executives must embody resilience\, foresight\, and emotional intelligence to foster adaptability and maintain competitive advantage. \nA hallmark of effective leadership is the articulation and relentless pursuit of a compelling vision. Executives must craft a clear strategic direction that resonates across all levels of the organization\, translating abstract goals into actionable plans. This involves conducting thorough market analyses\, anticipating industry shifts\, and rallying teams around shared objectives. By communicating this vision consistently\, leaders create a sense of purpose that motivates employees\, reduces ambiguity\, and ensures that every department contributes coherently to overarching success. Without this strategic clarity\, organizations risk fragmented efforts and missed opportunities. \nStrong communication skills are indispensable for executive leaders. They must excel at both conveying information transparently and actively listening to feedback from stakeholders\, including employees\, customers\, and board members. Transparent communication builds trust\, mitigates rumours during crises\, and encourages open dialogue that surfaces innovative ideas. Effective leaders tailor their messages to different audiences while maintaining authenticity\, using tools like town halls\, digital platforms\, and one-on-one interactions. This two-way flow of information not only aligns the workforce but also empowers individuals to take ownership of their roles. \nBuilding and empowering high-performing teams lies at the heart of executive leadership. Successful leaders invest in talent acquisition\, development\, and retention\, recognizing that people are the primary drivers of innovation and execution. They delegate authority thoughtfully\, cultivate an inclusive environment where diverse perspectives flourish\, and provide the resources and autonomy needed for teams to excel. By mentoring emerging leaders and promoting a culture of accountability paired with support\, executives multiply their impact and create organizational depth that withstands leadership transitions. \nDecisiveness combined with a willingness to embrace innovation defines leaders who propel organizations forward. Executives face constant pressure to make high-stakes choices amid uncertainty\, weighing risks against potential rewards. Effective ones rely on data-driven insights while trusting their intuition honed through experience. They champion experimentation\, tolerate calculated failures as learning opportunities\, and foster agility so the organization can pivot swiftly in response to disruptions. This proactive stance ensures continuous improvement and positions the company as an industry leader rather than a follower. \nUltimately\, effective executive leadership is anchored in integrity\, ethical conduct\, and a commitment to long-term value creation. Leaders who prioritize stakeholder well-being\, corporate social responsibility\, and sustainable practices earn lasting loyalty and enhance their organization’s reputation. They measure success not solely by financial metrics but by the positive impact on employees\, communities\, and the broader ecosystem. Through principled decision-making and personal accountability\, these executives inspire confidence\, weather adversity\, and leave a legacy of enduring organizational success. \nIn light of this\, ICPAK will hold a one-week Executive Seminar in Dubai\, themed Leadership Excellence through Vision and Influence\, with an aim of bringing together senior corporate and public sector executives and upcoming leaders for a forthright discussion on matters touching on effective executive leadership.

SUMMARY:Leadership by Design- Practical Tips for New Managers and Supervisors
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nLeadership by Design- Practical Tips for New Managers and Supervisors\nDate: 8th December  2026\nTime: 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM\nDelivery Mode: Virtual \nOverview \nLeadership by design is the deliberate practice of shaping your leadership approach with intention rather than allowing it to emerge reactively from daily pressures. For new managers\, this means treating leadership as a craft you actively engineer—defining your values\, systems\, and behaviours upfront. Leaders start by conducting a personal audit: reflect on your strengths\, past experiences\, and the kind of leader you want to become. This foundational clarity prevents you from defaulting to old habits or mimicking ineffective bosses\, creating a consistent leadership identity from day one. \nOne practical tip is to design clear structures for goal setting and accountability. New managers often struggle with ambiguity\, so implement weekly one-on-ones and quarterly engagements tailored to your team. Use simple templates to align individual tasks with broader team objectives and make progress visible through shared dashboards or boards. By designing these rhythms early\, you foster predictability and momentum. This system not only drives results but also signals to your team that leadership is thoughtful and organized\, building trust faster than sporadic check-ins ever could. \nEffective leadership by design prioritizes empowering others over micromanaging. Delegate meaningful responsibilities by mapping team members’ strengths and growth areas\, then create “ownership charters” that outline decision rights and success metrics for each role. Schedule regular calibration meetings to review what’s working without hovering. This approach frees you to focus on strategic work while developing your people. New managers who design delegation frameworks report higher team engagement and fewer bottlenecks\, turning potential chaos into scalable performance. \nCommunication is another area ripe for intentional design. Establish a feedback culture through structured engagements while granting room for feedback on self. Design your availability—such as office hours or response-time SLAs—to model balance and accessibility. New managers should also practice radical candour in private while celebrating wins publicly. These designed touchpoints reduce misunderstandings and create psychological safety\, essential for high-performing teams. \nFinally\, build adaptability into your leadership system through continuous learning loops. Set aside time each month for personal reflection\, peer mentoring\, or skill-building courses amongst other avenues. Treat failures as design experiments: analyse what broke\, iterate on your approach\, and document lessons. For new managers\, this meta-habit prevents stagnation and demonstrates humility. Leadership by design is never static—it evolves with evidence\, ensuring you grow alongside your team while delivering sustainable results. \nTARGET AUDIENCE \nThis webinar will be useful for new managers and supervisors from all professions who aim to enhance their individual and team leadership skills.  \n CPD Units: \nMembers who attend the webinar in full will earn 2 Structured CPD Units. \nFinancial Commitment:\nThe Webinar charges are Kshs. 1\,000. Charges will cater for online video access fees\, learning materials\, and e-certificates of attendance. \nNational Industrial Training Authority (NITA) Reimbursement \nThe Institute is registered as a trainer with National Industrial Training Authority (formerly Department of Industrial Training -DIT). The Institute’s registration number is DIT/TRN/47. Participants who are registered levy contributors should apply to NITA for reimbursement of their fees.

SUMMARY:Branch Annual Tax Workshop-Mandatory Training (Nyanza Branch)
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountant Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nBranch Annual Tax Workshop  (Nyanza Branch) Mandatory Training\nTheme: Navigating Tax Compliance in a Changing Regulatory Landscape\nDate: 10th – 11th December 2026\nTime: 09.00am -3.30pm\nVenue: Kisumu\, To be Confirmed\n(This is one of the mandatory training courses for Practicing Certificate consideration) \nOverview \nThe modern tax landscape in Kenya and globally presents multifaceted challenges. Finance professionals must navigate corporate income tax\, VAT\, excise duties\, PAYE\, transfer pricing\, digital taxation\, and emerging compliance requirements. Non-compliance exposes organizations to financial penalties\, reputational risks\, and operational disruption. Accountants\, tax practitioners\, auditors\, and finance managers therefore play a critical role in safeguarding compliance\, advising on strategic tax planning\, and supporting overall organizational decision-making. \nDirect taxes sting the pockets of workers\, entrepreneurs and investors\, and simultaneously reducing their disposable income. The combined effect is to squeeze household budgets\, diminishing livelihoods\, lifestyle choices and business activity. In a context where governments have to cope with less revenue\, increasing expenditure and resulting fiscal constraints\, raising revenue remains the most important function of taxes. This serves as the primary means for financing public goods such as maintenance of law and order and public infrastructure. \nToday’s tax environment is increasingly complex\, with rapid legislative changes\, heightened regulatory scrutiny\, digitalization of tax administration\, and international tax reforms challenging professionals to ensure compliance while optimizing tax positions. \nThe Branch Annual Tax Workshop has been designed to equip participants with practical knowledge\, technical skills\, and actionable insights for effective tax management. Through a combination of technical instruction\, interactive exercises\, real-world scenarios\, and practical case studies\, participants will explore key aspects of domestic taxation\, corporate and personal tax obligations\, indirect taxes\, tax audits\, dispute resolution\, and ethical tax practice. The workshop also introduces participants to digital tax tools\, emerging trends\, and strategic considerations in integrating tax functions with organizational objectives. \nBy the end of this two-day program\, participants will be prepared to manage complex tax issues\, ensure compliance with Kenyan tax laws\, implement practical strategies\, and contribute to organizational efficiency\, transparency\, and value creation. \nTopics to be covered include:  \n\nEthical standards and professionalism in tax practice -Code of conduct requirements\nTax Dispute resolution\nChanges in tax requirements – Overview of the Tax Laws and recent amendments\nOverview of Cross-border trade and international compliance and requirements\nVAT Act and compliance with recent changes\ne-TIMS real-time reporting (RTR) and compliance obligations and Technological advancements on tax compliance\n\nTarget Audience \nThis training is one of the mandatory training courses for Practicing Certificate consideration. It is also open to all Tax Professionals\, Audit Practitioners\, Senior Management of Organizations\, CEOs and Boards and government officials/experts who deal with international tax or transfer pricing in Africa and wish to gain a deeper technical understanding of relevant tax matters. \nAll members who would wish to practice in the future are also encouraged to enroll on the course as it provides practical skills required for effective performance of their roles in taxation and tax advisory services. \nContinuous Professional Development Units (CPD UNITS):\nMembers of ICPAK and those from reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 14 Structured CPD Units upon successfully completion of the seminar. \nFinancial Commitment:\nThe workshop charges are Kes. 10\,000.
