SUMMARY:ISA for less complex entities webinar

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. \nThe following topics will 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.

SUMMARY:GRANTS MANAGEMENT\, COMPLIANCE AND FINANCIAL REPORTING SEMINAR 2026
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nGRANTS MANAGEMENT\, COMPLIANCE & FINANCIAL REPORTING SEMINAR\nDate: 30th March – 2nd April 2026 \nVenue: SAROVA WOODLADS HOTEL\, NAKURU\nTheme: “Strengthening Grants Management and Financial Reporting to Safeguard Donor Confidence” \nOVERVIEW \nThe operational and accountability landscape for Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs) and grant-funded entities is becoming increasingly complex and demanding. Stakeholders\, including donors\, regulators\, beneficiaries\, and the public\, require enhanced transparency\, rigorous compliance\, and comprehensive reporting that goes beyond mere financial numbers to demonstrate impact and sustainability. \nA pivotal development in this environment is the gradual adoption and transition to the International Non-Profit Accounting Standards (INPAS). These standards provide a globally accepted accounting framework tailored specifically for the unique characteristics of not-for-profit entities. Transitioning to INPAS requires NPOs to strengthen their financial management systems\, adopt accrual accounting principles\, improve recognition of assets and liabilities\, and enhance the accuracy and consistency of financial reporting. This transition poses significant challenges\, including revising accounting policies\, training finance teams\, and aligning donor reporting with new standards\, all while maintaining operational continuity and compliance with varying donor requirements. \nIn parallel\, there is growing recognition of the importance of narrative reporting in the nonprofit sector. Donors and stakeholders increasingly seek richer contextual information that links financial inputs to programme outcomes and social impact. Narrative reporting complements financial statements by providing qualitative insights into how funds are utilized to achieve mission objectives\, thereby fostering trust\, accountability\, and informed decision-making. \nEffective budgeting is another cornerstone of sound grants management. Accurate and realistic budgets enable NPOs to allocate resources efficiently\, respond to dynamic programme needs\, and comply with donor restrictions and cost recovery policies. However\, many organizations face challenges in preparing budgets that balance operational realities with donor expectations\, including handling multi-year grants\, exchange rate volatility\, and overhead allocations. \nAdditionally\, the rising global emphasis on Environmental\, Social\, and Governance (ESG) considerations is reshaping how NPOs operate and report. Stakeholders now expect nonprofits to embed ESG principles into their governance\, operational practices\, and reporting frameworks. This includes managing environmental impacts\, promoting social inclusion and equity\, and demonstrating good governance and ethical practices. Integrating ESG into financial and narrative reporting enhances organizational resilience\, donor confidence\, and the overall sustainability of programmes. \nThis seminar aims to equip grants managers\, finance professionals\, programme officers\, and compliance personnel with the knowledge\, skills\, and practical tools to effectively manage grants through the entire lifecycle\, ensure compliance with donor and regulatory requirements\, prepare robust financial and narrative reports\, and integrate ESG considerations into their operations. By addressing the challenges and opportunities presented by INPAS transition\, narrative reporting\, effective budgeting\, and ESG integration\, the seminar supports NPOs to strengthen accountability\, improve audit readiness\, and demonstrate their commitment to transparent\, impactful stewardship of resources. \nAdditionally\, the following topics will be discussed during the sessions: \n\n\n\nDAY\nMODULE\nTOPICS\n\n\nDAY 1\nGrants Landscape & the Grant Lifecycle \n \n·         Fundamentals of Grants Management \n·         Types of grants \n·         Key stages \n·         Roles & responsibilities\n\n\nGrant Agreements\, Terms & Conditions\, and Compliance Obligations\n·         Relationship between actuarial valuation reports and financial statements \n·         Interpreting grant agreements\, annexes and budget lines. \n·         Common restrictive clauses (eligibility\, branding\, procurement rules\, currencies). \n·         Compliance calendars and performance indicators.\n\n\nBudgeting for Grants: From Proposal to Approved Budget\n·         Types of costs: direct vs indirect\, capital vs recurrent\, allocable vs unallowable. \n·         Cost principles\, allocation methods and overheads/indirect cost rates. \n·         Budget revisions and re-forecasting \n \n\n\nDAY 2\nProcurement\, Asset Management & Eligible Costs\n·         Donor procurement rules vs procurement best practice. \n·         Tendering\, supplier selection\, contract management and conflict-of-interest controls. \n·         Capitalisation\, fixed assets register and disposals under donors’ rules. \n \n\n\nINPAS: Purpose\, Scope and Strategic Implications for Kenyan NPOs\n·         Why INPAS was developed and its principal objectives (transparency\, comparability\, credibility). \n·         INPAS’ scope\, relationship to IFRS for SMEs / IFRS / IPSAS and when NPOs should use it. \n·         High-level differences NPOs must anticipate (fund accounting\, narrative reporting\, grant treatment). \n·         Strategic implications for boards\, funders and auditors;

SUMMARY:PFM and IPSAS Accrual Seminar - Coast Branch
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountant Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nPFM and IPSAS Accrual Seminar – Coast Branch\nDate: 26th-27th March 2026\nTime: 09.00am -3.30pm\nVenue: The Avid Hotel\, Nairobi /Mombasa Highway\, Voi \nTheme: Strengthening Public Sector Accountability through Enhanced Financial Reporting Practices \nOverview \nIn a period where financial accountability and transparency are increasingly critical\, the adoption of International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS) has become essential for strengthening Public Financial Management (PFM). In Kenya\, the Government has implemented various reforms aimed at enhancing public finance management.
