SUMMARY:THE 7TH ANNUAL BOARD TRAINING
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nTHE 7TH ANNUAL BOARD TRAINING\nTheme: Effective Modern-Day Governance for Solid Foundations\nDATE: 6TH JULY– 10TH JULY 2026\nTIME: 09.00AM-03.30PM\nENASHIPAI RESORT\, NAIVASHA \nOVERVIEW \nBoards are the central force behind organizational stability and strategic success\, charged with guiding vision\, safeguarding integrity and ensuring long-term growth. In today’s rapidly changing environment\, where technology\, regulation\, and stakeholder expectations converge\, boards must operate with insight\, resilience\, and foresight. Their ability to anticipate challenges\, make informed decisions and cultivate trust directly influences organizational performance and credibility\, positioning the board as a decisive force for enduring excellence. \nEffectiveness in modern governance requires boards to balance strategic thinking with operational intelligence. Understanding the financial and operational health of an organization\, integrating long-term risk considerations and ensuring accountability allows boards to navigate complexity with clarity. Inclusive dialogue\, ethical leadership and constructive debate strengthen cohesion\, enabling boards to make decisions that reflect both organizational priorities and stakeholder expectations while fostering a culture of integrity and transparency. \nBoards are also architects of future resilience. By embracing diversity of thought\, preparing for leadership continuity\, and adopting emerging technologies responsibly\, boards can guide organizations through uncertainty while maintaining adaptability and innovation. Their oversight ensures that strategic objectives\, sustainability considerations\, and societal responsibilities are integrated into the organization’s operations\, fostering an environment where growth\, accountability\, and long-term value coexist. \nHigh-performing boards understand that governance extends beyond oversight; it is a catalyst for shaping organizational trajectory. By combining foresight\, risk intelligence\, ethical stewardship\, and adaptive leadership\, boards provide stability and vision in times of disruption. In an era defined by digital transformation\, evolving regulations\, and heightened expectations\, boards that embrace these principles position their organizations to thrive\, remain resilient\, and achieve sustainable success. It is in this consideration that ICPAK has planned a 5-day board training with specific emphasis on the following areas: \n\nBoard Roles and Fiduciary Duties in a Digital World – Modern responsibilities and legal obligations of directors.\nEmerging Legal and Regulatory Trends for Boards – Staying ahead of compliance\, liability\, and sector-specific updates.\nEthical Leadership and Accountability at the Board Level – Strengthening transparency and integrity in decision-making.\nBoard Dynamics and Collaborative Decision-Making – Enhancing teamwork\, conflict resolution\, and effective meetings.\nAdvanced Financial Literacy for Strategic Oversight – Understanding statements\, ratios\, and budgeting for informed governance.\nStrategic Planning and Organizational Guidance – Shaping\, monitoring\, and evaluating long-term organizational strategies.\nBuilding a Risk-Intelligent Board – Identifying\, assessing\, and mitigating financial\, operational\, and cyber risks.\nPerformance Monitoring and Accountability Metrics – Tools to measure board and management effectiveness.\nEmbedding ESG into Board Oversight – Integrating sustainability and social responsibility into strategy and operations.\nAI\, Technology\, and Digital Governance – Leveraging tech responsibly while managing emerging risks.\nSuccession Planning and Leadership Continuity – Preparing for seamless transitions at board and executive levels.\nDiversity\, Inclusion\, and High-Impact Boards – Strengthening decision-making through varied perspectives and skills.\nBook Review: Boards That Lead: When to Take Charge\, When to Partner\, and When to Stay Out of the Way by Ram Charan\, Dennis Carey\, and Michael Useem – Practical insights on balancing oversight\, strategy\, and collaboration.\n\n TARGET AUDIENCE \nThe training will be beneficial to Board Members\, Board Chairpersons\, Board Committee Members and Committee Chairpersons\, Board Secretaries\, CEOs\, Senior Management\, Aspiring Board Members\, Business Owners\, and Entrepreneurs\, \n CONTINUOUS PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT UNITS (CPD UNITS): \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 20 Structured CPD Units upon successfully completion of the training. \nFINANCIAL COMMITMENT \nThe Board training charges are Kshs. 90\,000.

SUMMARY:IFRS 18-Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements webinar
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nIFRS 18- Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements\nDate: 7th July 2025\nTime: 4:00pm – 6:00pm\nMode of Delivery: Virtual \nOverview \nAs the IFRS 18 – Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements marks one of the most significant structural shifts in global financial reporting since the inception of IFRS. The Standard introduces a more consistent and decision-useful approach to how financial performance is presented\, classified and communicated. By redefining subtotals\, standardizing the classification of operating\, investing and financing activities\, and elevating the role of management-defined performance measures\, IFRS 18 is expected to significantly enhance comparability across entities\, industries and jurisdictions. This reform responds directly to long-standing user concerns regarding the lack of consistency in performance presentation under IAS 1\, and the excessive use of non-GAAP metrics that previously contributed to opacity and inconsistency across reporting landscapes. \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.

SUMMARY:THE IFRS MASTER CLASS 2026 (Mandatory Training)
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nTHE IFRS MASTER CLASS 2026 (Mandatory Training) \nTheme: Navigating the Complexities of Internal Financial Reporting Standards \nDate: 13th -17th July 2026\nTime: 09.00am-03.30pm\nVenue: Radisson Blu Hotel Nairobi \nThis is one of the mandatory trainings for Practicing Certificate consideration \nOVERVIEW \nThe global financial reporting landscape is undergoing significant transformation driven by heightened expectations for transparency\, comparability\, and the integration of sustainability information into mainstream reporting. In response\, the IFRS Masterclass is designed as an intensive programme aimed at strengthening technical competence in both financial and sustainability reporting frameworks\, while enhancing professional judgement in complex reporting environments. \nThe programme provides a comprehensive coverage of key International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)\, emerging sustainability disclosure requirements\, and specialised reporting frameworks. It equips participants with practical skills to interpret\, apply\, and critically evaluate financial reporting standards in a manner that supports high-quality\, decision-useful financial information. \nCore financial reporting areas include IFRS 18 on Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements\, IFRS 7 on Financial Instruments Disclosures\, IAS 24 on Related Party Disclosures\, and IAS 29 on Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies. These topics strengthen participants’ ability to enhance disclosure quality\, improve transparency in financial instruments\, and address the impact of economic volatility on financial reporting. \nThe Masterclass also delves into IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards\, with a focus on IFRS S1 and IFRS S2. Participants will explore the selection and reporting of sustainability metrics and targets\, scenario analysis\, greenhouse gas (GHG) accounting\, and the integration of climate-related risks into strategic and financial decision-making. This ensures alignment with global and local ESG reporting expectations and emerging investor demands. \nSpecialised technical areas are also covered\, including IFRS 16 on Leases\, with emphasis on recognition\, measurement\, and disclosure of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. In addition\, participants are introduced to the International Non-Profit Accounting Standards (INPAS)\, including their structure\, applicability\, and relationship with IFRS and IPSAS frameworks\, particularly within the non-profit reporting environment. \nFurther technical depth is provided through IFRS 5 on Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations\, IFRS 17 on Insurance Contracts\, and IAS 26 on Accounting and Reporting by Retirement Benefit Plans. These standards address advanced issues relating to classification\, measurement\, actuarial assumptions\, and disclosure requirements in specialised reporting contexts. \nThe programme concludes with applied insights drawn from financial reporting review outcomes\, highlighting common compliance gaps and emerging trends in practice. This is complemented by a practical session on investing in the stock exchange. \nKey Topics \n\n\n\nDAY\nMODULE\nTOPICS\n\n\n\n\nDAY 1\nA.   IFRS 18: Presentation and Disclosure in Financial

SUMMARY:IAS 10-Events After the Reporting Period webinar
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nIAS 10-Events After the Reporting Period\nDate: 14th July 2026\nTime: 4.00-6.00PM\nVenue: Virtual \nOverview \nIn today’s volatile business environment\, events occurring after the reporting period can have a significant impact on financial reporting. This volatility is driven by economic shocks\, regulatory changes\, shifting tax regimes\, climate-related risks and unexpected operational disruptions. IAS 10 provides the essential framework for identifying\, assessing\, adjusting for and disclosing such events to ensure quality financial reporting. \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.

SUMMARY:RETIREMENT BENEFITS INDUSTRY CONFERENE (physical option)
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nRETIREMENT BENEFITS INDUSTRY CONFERENE \nDate: 22nd – 24th July 2026\nTime: 9:00am – 4:00pm\nVenue: ICPAK Auditorium CPA Centre \nOVERVIEW \nThe retirement benefits industry in Kenya is operating within an increasingly complex and demanding environment. Structural demographic changes\, including increasing longevity and a growing retired population\, are exerting pressure on scheme funding and benefit sustainability.

Actuarial valuations are subject to heightened scrutiny\, funding shortfalls demand credible recovery plans\, and financial reporting must faithfully reflect scheme solvency\, investment performance and member entitlements. Emerging risks\, particularly climate change\, ESG stewardship obligations\, cyber threats and data integrity issues are no longer peripheral considerations but central components of fiduciary duty. \nAgainst this backdrop\, ICPAK has developed this inaugural three-day training designed to move beyond theory and address the most difficult\, practical challenges facing retirement benefit schemes.
