SUMMARY:Ethics for professional accountants Webinar (Mandatory Training) cohort 3
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nEthics for professional accountants Webinar – cohort 3\nDate: 3rd December  2025\nTime: 04.00pm-06.00pm\nDelivery Mode: Virtual \n(This is one of the mandatory trainings for practicing certificate consideration) \nOverview \nEthics continues to be a foundational pillar of the accounting profession\, especially as practitioners face increasing client pressures\, tightening regulatory expectations and rapid technological changes that introduce new forms of ethical risk. Recent updates to the IESBA Code\, ongoing enforcement actions globally and the growing ethical considerations in areas such as sustainability reporting and technology use demonstrate why continuous ethics renewal is essential. For practitioners in Kenya\, compliance with the International Code of Ethics including the International Independence Standards is not only a professional obligation but also a regulatory requirement embedded in the Accountants Act and ICPAK’s Quality Assurance Review framework. \nThis webinar will provide a practical and experience-driven understanding of the Code\, enabling practitioners to interpret and apply its requirements in real-world scenarios. Participants will explore the fundamental principles of integrity\, objectivity\, professional competence and due care\, confidentiality and professional behaviour\, and consider how these principles translate into daily decision-making within firms. A central focus will be the conceptual framework approach\, which guides practitioners in identifying threats to compliance\, evaluating their significance and implementing appropriate safeguards. The session will emphasize the most common threats such as self-interest\, self-review\, advocacy\, familiarity and intimidation and will demonstrate how proper documentation supports ethical judgments in practice. \nIndependence in assurance engagements will be another major theme\, especially given its prominence in Quality Assurance Review findings. The discussions will address fee dependency\, long association\, relationships involving network firms and distinctions between independence requirements for audit and other assurance engagements. To anchor these principles\, the webinar will incorporate realistic ethical dilemmas drawn from the experiences of small and medium practices\, touching on issues such as client pressure\, conflicts of interest\, fee negotiations\, scope creep and ethical leadership challenges within firms. \nEmerging issues will also form part of the discourse\, particularly the ethical implications of technology and artificial intelligence\, where concerns about confidentiality\, data protection\, objectivity and professional behaviour continue to grow. Participants will reflect on the ethical dimensions of sustainability reporting and assurance under IFRS S1\, IFRS S2 and ISSA 5000\, as well as anti-money laundering obligations and cybersecurity considerations tied to digital records. The session will conclude with practical guidance on building and sustaining an ethical culture in firms\, including tone at the top\, staff sensitization\, internal escalation mechanisms and the integration of ethical expectations into firm methodologies and policies. \nBy the end of the webinar\, practitioners are expected to be better equipped to apply the IESBA Code confidently\, recognize and respond to high-risk ethical situations and document their rationale in line with regulatory expectations. The aim is to support practitioners in reducing exposure to ethical and independence breaches while fostering a culture of integrity\, accountability and sound professional judgment across the profession. \nTopics to be covered will include:\n• Overview of the IESBA Code\n• The Conceptual Framework\n• Independence in Assurance Engagements\n• Managing Ethical Dilemmas in Practice\n• Emerging Ethics Issues\n• Strengthening the Ethical Culture of Firms \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.

SUMMARY:INPAS Practical Course on Reporting for Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs)
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nINPAS Practical Course on Reporting for Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs)\nTheme- Strengthening Financial Reporting for Transparency\, Accountability & Donor Confidence\n22nd – 23rd January 2026\nTime: 09.00am-03.30pm\nVenue – CPA Centre \nOverview \n Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs) occupy a unique space in society\, delivering social impact and advancing development goals across sectors. Their operations rely heavily on funding from donors\, grants\, and other resources that require careful stewardship. Accurate\, comprehensive\, and transparent financial reporting is central to sustaining stakeholder confidence\, demonstrating accountability\, and ensuring compliance with statutory and donor requirements. However\, NPOs often face challenges in financial reporting due to multiple funding sources\, restricted and unrestricted funds\, donor-specific requirements\, and sector-specific accounting standards. \nThe International Non-Profit Accounting Standard (INPAS) represents one of the most significant modern developments in global financial reporting for the not-for-profit sector. As NPOs continue to play critical roles in advancing social\, economic and human-development agendas\, the need for consistent\, comparable\, transparent and decision-useful reporting has become more urgent. INPAS is intended to provide a globally coherent framework that enables non-profits to communicate performance\, stewardship\, accountability and impact using standardized accounting and disclosure principles. Its introduction seeks to resolve long-standing inconsistencies\, especially where NPOs rely on improvised internal policies or apply for-profit standards that do not appropriately reflect mission-centric activities\, donor restrictions\, program delivery dynamics and resource deployment structures. \nINPAS is not only a harmonization exercise; it provides clarity in key reporting areas such as recognition of resource inflows\, the accounting treatment of donor-imposed conditions\, attribution of expenditure to program portfolios\, measurement of performance\, narrative reporting and fund accountability. Unlike general-purpose accounting standards that were not written for the non-profit domain\, INPAS responds directly to unique sector characteristics such as restricted funding\, grant commitments\, volunteer contributions\, social-value outcomes and multi-stakeholder assurance needs. Non-profit reporting is therefore expected to transition away from inconsistent classification practices\, unverifiable impact statements and fragmented accounting treatments that currently limit comparability and weaken sector confidence. \nGlobal conversations around impact measurement\, trust restoration\, funding transparency\, donor confidence and public accountability continue to intensify. Development partners\, auditors\, regulators\, philanthropies and funding institutions are increasingly demanding standard-consistent reporting that demonstrates responsible resource use\, clear alignment between programs and expenditure\, and enhanced traceability of outcomes. INPAS responds to this shift by aligning reporting with global accountability expectations\, improving comparability\, elevating the quality of disclosures and strengthening intelligence for resource allocation decisions. \nWith rising societal expectations\, governance reforms\, anti-corruption agendas and ESG-linked donor priorities\, non-profit reporting can no longer be confined to traditional financial statements. The sector’s trust proposition depends on visibility into how funds translate into services and how actions generate real change. INPAS will therefore influence how NPOs record\, classify\, measure\, present and narrate the way value is created and delivered. This transition\, from narrow financial reporting to integrated program-performance reporting\, is highly strategic: reporting becomes a driver of confidence\, not merely a compliance exercise. \nIt is in response to this evolving context\, and ahead of INPAS implementation\, that the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) is convening this training to equip preparers\, reviewers and professionals with practical skills\, contextual understanding and transition readiness\, so that by the time formal adoption arrives\, the sector will be informed\, empowered and aligned for confident implementation. \nThe course is designed to cover the following topics: \nThe course is designed to cover the following topics:\n1.

SUMMARY:Personal Branding and Leadership Webinar
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nPersonal Branding and Leadership Webinar\nDate: 27th January 2026\nTime: 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM\nDelivery Mode: Virtual \nOverview \nPersonal branding is the intentional process of shaping how others perceive you\, both professionally and personally. It goes beyond a polished resume or social media profile; it encompasses your values\, expertise\, communication style\, and the consistent narrative you project in every interaction. In today’s interconnected world\, where reputations can be built or dismantled rapidly online\, a strong personal brand acts as a compass\, guiding decisions and attracting opportunities aligned with your authentic self. For leaders\, personal branding is not about self-promotion alone but about establishing trust and credibility that inspires others to follow. \nEffective leadership and personal branding are deeply intertwined. A leader’s brand reflects their vision\, integrity\, and ability to deliver results\, serving as a signal to teams\, stakeholders\, and peers. When leaders articulate a clear personal brand—such as being innovative\, empathetic\, or decisive—they create a framework that others can understand and rally behind. This clarity reduces ambiguity in decision-making and fosters alignment within organizations. Without a deliberate brand\, leaders risk being defined by others’ assumptions\, which may not accurately represent their strengths or intentions. \nAuthenticity is the cornerstone of sustainable personal branding in leadership. Audiences quickly detect inauthenticity\, leading to eroded trust. Great leaders build their brands around genuine strengths and values rather than fabricating an idealized image. For instance\, vulnerability in admitting mistakes or sharing personal growth stories can humanize a leader\, making them more relatable and approachable. This authentic approach not only strengthens the leader’s brand but also models behaviour that encourages openness and resilience in their teams. \nConsistency amplifies the impact of a personal brand. Leaders must ensure their actions\, words\, and online presence align across contexts—whether in boardrooms\, public speeches\, or casual conversations. Inconsistencies\, such as preaching collaboration while hoarding information\, undermine credibility faster than any external criticism. Over time\, consistent reinforcement of core messages—through storytelling\, visual identity\, and repeated behaviours—solidifies the brand in others’ minds\, turning perception into a reliable asset. \nPersonal branding also empowers leaders to navigate challenges and transitions. In times of crisis\, a well-established brand built on transparency and competence provides a buffer of goodwill. Similarly\, when pursuing new roles or expanding influence\, a strong brand precedes the leader\, opening doors through referrals and recognition. Leaders who invest in their brand proactively position themselves as thought leaders\, attracting talent\, partnerships\, and opportunities that align with their goals. \nUltimately\, personal branding in leadership is a strategic tool for amplifying impact. It transforms individual reputation into a force that elevates teams\, organizations\, and industries. By thoughtfully crafting and maintaining their brand\, leaders not only advance their own careers but also inspire others to develop their unique voices. In an era where influence often stems from perception as much as performance\, mastering personal branding remains a critical leadership competency. Join us for this webinar to get more insights on how to build your strong personal brand in a leadership space. \n Target Audience: \nAll professionals from different spheres \nCPD 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. Please note that this is applicable for Kenyan citizens only and subject to NITA regulations. Remember that to qualify you should apply to NITA for approval prior to the date of the conference.

SUMMARY:Reporting on IPSAS Accrual-Practical Course
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nReporting on IPSAS Accrual Practical Course\nDate: 29th – 30th January 2026\nTime: 9.00-15.30\nVenue: ICPAK Auditorium\nTheme: Transitioning from Cash to Accrual Reporting under IPSAS \nOverview \nPublic sector entities globally are increasingly transitioning from cash-basis accounting to International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS) Accrual basis to improve transparency\, accountability\, and comparability of financial information. For instance the Kenyan cabinet in March 2024 approved the transition from cash basis of accounting to accrual basis of accounting with effect from 1st July 2024. The accrual basis of accounting\, as outlined by IPSAS\, provides a more accurate picture of a government’s financial position and performance by recognizing transactions when they occur\, rather than when cash is received or paid. \nThis move is necessitated by the short-coming of cash basis of accounting with its attendant weaknesses arising from the point of view o financial transparency\, integrity and accountability.  Governments that follow cash basis of accounting tend not to maintain comprehensive and up-to date records of the value of their assets and liabilities. \nThe enabling factors of accrual accounting in the public sector include and is not limited to: growing recognition of the limits of pure cash basis of accounting; the development of accrual based international standards for government fiscal and financial reporting including government Finance statistics manual (GFSM) and International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS); the professionalization of the government accounting cadre and resulting introduction of private sector techniques into the public sector and the advent of computerized financial management information system (FMISs) which greatly reduce the transaction costs of collecting and consolidating accrual-based information. While many organizations have adopted IPSAS in principle\, practical challenges remain in compiling\, analyzing\, and reporting accrual-based financial statements. \nThese organizations\, often require hands on training to ensure they can correctly apply IPSAS requirements\, prepare compliant financial statements\, and understand the implications of accrual adjustments and disclosures. This two day practical course is designed to address these gaps by equipping participants with the knowledge and tools needed for accurate IPSAS-compliant reporting. \nThe following topics will be covered: \nFoundations and Practical Application of IPSAS Accrual\n\nOverview of IPSAS and the conceptual framework\nKey differences between cash basis and accrual basis reporting\nRecognition and measurement principles\nPractical sessions on:\n\n\nProperty\, plant\, and equipment (IPSAS 17)\nIntangible assets (IPSAS 31)\n\n\nRevenue from exchange and non-exchange transactions (IPSAS 9 & 23)\n\n\nEmployee benefits (IPSAS 39)\n\nPreparing IPSAS Compliant Financial Statements\n\nAccrual adjustments and closing processes\nPreparing primary financial statements:\n\n\nStatement of Financial Performance\nStatement of Financial Position\n\n\nCash Flow Statement (IPSAS 2)\n\n\nStatement of Changes in Net Assets/Equity\nNotes and disclosures requirements\nConsolidated financial statements (IPSAS 35–38)\n\n\nPractical exercise: Full preparation of an IPSAS-compliant set of financial statements.\nCommon challenges\, best practices\, and implementation strategies\n\nTARGET AUDIENCE: \nThis webinar will be useful to professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the profession but more specifically: \n\nPublic sector accountants and finance officers.\nGovernment auditors.\n\n\nPublic finance management professionals.\n\n\nInternal auditors and financial controllers.\nManagers and decision-makers in public institutions who are responsible for financial oversight.\n\nYOUR FINANCIAL COMMITMENT \nCharges for the training will be Kes 18\,500/= which will cover workshop fees\, materials\, and e-certificates of attendance. \nCPD UNITS \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 10 CPD Units upon successfully attending the sessions. \nONLINE BOOKING: \nWe call on Seminar participants to note that booking for is available only online at www.icpak.com/events and will close two hours before the training session.  Delegates are reminded to note that online booking for training sessions is mandatory.

SUMMARY:ISA 200- Quality Management for an Audit of Financial Statements webinar
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nISA 200- Quality Management for an Audit of Financial Statements\nDate: 3rd February 2026\nTime: 4:00- 6:00PM\nMode of Delivery: Virtual \nOverview \nEnsuring high-quality audit engagements is at the core of underpinning public confidence in financial reporting and maintaining the integrity of the capital markets. ISA 200 presents the basic principles and related responsibilities underlying the auditor’s role when conducting an audit of financial statements in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. As the business world becomes more dynamic\, regulated\, and increasingly scrutinized by various stakeholders\, audit quality is of growing interest to practitioners\, audit firms\, and oversight bodies alike. The objective of this webinar is to enhance participants’ understanding of ISA 200 and how it can be practically applied to enhance quality management processes\, which are integral to an effective audit. \nThe session will discuss how ISA 200 establishes the overall objectives of the independent auditor and sets out the essential requirements that underpin the performance of a high-quality audit. Attention will be drawn to the auditor’s responsibilities relating to professional skepticism\, ethical compliance\, risk assessment\, and the application of sound professional judgement. Finally\, the discussion will explore how ISA 200 interfaces with broader quality management standards\, including the role of firm-level systems designed to support consistent performance of quality audits. There will also be practical insights to show how auditors can strengthen documentation\, manage engagement risk\, and ensure compliance in an increasingly complex financial reporting environment. \nBy convening practitioners\, audit managers\, and finance professionals\, the webinar seeks to further equip participants with state-of-the-art perspectives on the maintenance of audit quality and enhancing the reliability of financial statements. The session will also be a platform for sharing emerging challenges encountered in practice and discussing best practices that encourage rigorous\, efficient\, and compliant audit engagements. This webinar has been specifically designed to reinforce the critical role that ISA 200 plays in maintaining public trust and supporting the credibility of the profession. \nTopics to Be Discussed  \n\nOverview and Objectives of ISA 200\nResponsibilities of the Auditor under ISA 200\nProfessional Judgement and Professional Skepticism\nEthical Requirements and Independence Considerations\nUnderstanding Audit Risk and Materiality\nLinkage Between ISA 200 and Firm-Level Quality Management Standards\nDocumentation Requirements and Common Gaps in Practice\nEnhancing Audit Quality in Complex and Evolving Reporting Environments\nPractical Challenges and Best Practices for Implementation\n\nTarget Audience \nPrivate and Public Audit Practitioners  \nContinuous Professional Development Units (CPD UNITS): \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 2 Structured CPD Units upon successful completion of the virtual webinar. \nFinancial Commitment \nThe symposium charges are Kshs 1\,000 Charges will cater for online video access fees\, learning materials\, and e-certificates of attendance. \nOnline Booking \nRegistration: Delegates are reminded to note that online booking for the workshop is mandatory on https://www.icpak.com/event-registration/Online Booking \nWe call on interested participants to note that booking for the event is available online at www.icpak.com  and will close two hours before the training session. \nNational Industrial Training Authority (NITA) Reimbursement \nThe Institute is registered as a trainer with National Industrial Training Authority.

DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nIFRS for SMEs (Third Edition)\nDate: 5th February 2025\nTime: 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM\nMode of Delivery: Virtual \nOverview \nThe IFRS for SMEs Accounting Standard (Third Edition) was released by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) in 2024 and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027 with early application permitted. This revision represents the most substantial overhaul of the Standard since its inception\, incorporating updated principles from full IFRS and addressing the evolving reporting needs of small and medium-sized entities. Because SMEs form a significant share of Kenya’s economic fabric\, supporting more than 40 percent of the country’s GDP and employing the majority of the workforce\, it is essential that professional accountants fully understand the implications of these changes for financial reporting\, audit\, and advisory work. \nThe webinar seeks to enhance members’ technical capacity by providing an in-depth exploration of the key changes in the Third Edition. Participants will be introduced to updates related to revenue recognition\, financial instruments\, the expected credit loss model\, and refinements in measurement\, presentation\, and disclosure requirements. The session will also explain why the IASB undertook the revision\, how the new edition aligns with full IFRS standards\, and what this means for both preparers and auditors serving SME clients. Special attention will be given to Kenya’s unique environment\, including the practical challenges SMPs and SMEs are likely to face as the new Standard comes into effect. \nThrough this event\, ICPAK aims to help members understand not only what has changed\, but why it matters. The webinar will unpack transition requirements and highlight the implications for compliance\, audit work\, documentation\, and quality control. Members will also have the opportunity to engage experts through a dedicated question-and-answer session\, enabling them to clarify technical issues and discuss practical implementation concerns. \nBy the end of the webinar\, participants are expected to have strengthened their understanding of the Standard’s conceptual foundations and improved their ability to apply the updated requirements in real-world reporting scenarios. The session will contribute to more consistent\, transparent\, and decision-useful SME financial statements\, thereby promoting public confidence in the profession. It will also support practitioners in navigating audit implications\, advising SME clients on transition\, and identifying opportunities to enhance compliance and reporting quality. \nOverall\, this webinar will reinforce ICPAK’s commitment to strengthening professional competence and contributing to the successful national adoption and implementation of the IFRS for SMEs (Third Edition)\, ensuring that Kenyan accountants remain aligned with global reporting developments and best practice. \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.

SUMMARY:International Standard on Assurance Engagements- ISAE 3000 (Revised) webinar
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nInternational Standard on Assurance Engagements- ISAE 3000 (Revised)\nDATE: 10th February 2026\nTIME: 4:00pm–6:00pm\nMode Of Delivery: Virtual \nOverview \nAs the demand for assurance in areas such as sustainability reporting\, internal control evaluations\, compliance reviews\, information systems\, and risk management continues to grow\, ISAE 3000 (Revised) has become an increasingly critical standard in both practice and industry. It provides the foundational principles and procedures for assurance engagements that do not involve audits or reviews of historical financial information\, making it essential for practitioners seeking to meet evolving stakeholder expectations in an environment of heightened transparency and accountability. \nThe webinar is intended to help members deepen their understanding of the Standard’s core requirements\, including ethical considerations\, quality management\, risk assessment\, evidence gathering\, documentation\, and assurance reporting. As Kenya and the broader global profession move toward expanded assurance especially in sustainability (including IFRS S1 and S2 assurance)\, ESG disclosures\, donor-funded projects\, regulatory compliance engagements\, and assurance over internal processes\, ISAE 3000 (Revised) is increasingly becoming the benchmark for credibility in non-financial assurance work. \nThrough this session\, ICPAK will provide participants with a practitioner-focused exploration of the Standard. The webinar will explain the distinctions between limited and reasonable assurance\, clarify the practical implications of the revised quality management requirements\, and demonstrate how ISAE 3000 (Revised) interacts with subject-matter specific standards such as ISSA 5000 (Greenhouse Gas Statements)\, ISAE 3420 (Assurance on Pro Forma Information)\, and the emerging sustainability assurance frameworks. Case examples will illustrate how the Standard applies in real practice scenarios\, including engagements common in Kenya such as fund accountability statements\, performance audits\, procurement compliance\, and sustainability reporting assurance. \nParticipants will gain a clear understanding of how to plan\, perform\, and report on an ISAE 3000 (Revised) engagement while maintaining professional skepticism\, complying with ethical requirements\, and ensuring robust documentation. The session will also highlight common pitfalls encountered by practitioners\, including issues related to obtaining suitable criteria\, identifying risks of misstatement in non-financial information\, agreeing the scope of work\, and managing client expectations regarding the level of assurance provided. \nOverall\, this webinar aligns with ICPAK’s commitment to advancing professional excellence and supporting its members as the scope of the assurance profession expands. By strengthening understanding of ISAE 3000 (Revised)\, the Institute will contribute to improved quality\, consistency\, and credibility in Kenya’s non-financial assurance landscape\, positioning members to seize emerging opportunities in sustainability\, governance\, compliance\, and risk assurance. \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.
