ISA 500-Audit Evidence Webinar

THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
ISA 500-Audit Evidence Webinar
Date: 28th April 2026
Time: 4.00-6.00PM
Venue: Virtual
Overview
In today’s complex and fast-evolving business environment, audit practitioners are increasingly challenged by sophisticated transactions, digital records, automation, and heightened regulatory scrutiny. At the heart of audit quality lies one fundamental requirement—the ability to obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence to support a well-founded audit opinion. ISA 500 provides the core framework that guides auditors on what constitutes reliable evidence and how it should be obtained, evaluated, and documented.
ISA 500 is the backbone of the entire audit process, influencing every audit judgment and conclusion. Yet, in practice, auditors frequently face challenges relating to the reliability of management information, the use of external confirmations, the impact of technology on evidence, and the risk of over-reliance on weak or insufficient audit documentation. This webinar is therefore designed to equip professional audit practitioners with a clear, practical, and risk-focused understanding of ISA 500, emphasizing its application in real-world audit engagements.
The session will focus on how to:

Determine what constitutes sufficient and appropriate audit evidence
Assess the reliability of evidence from different sources
Apply professional judgment when using information produced by the entity
Evaluate the consistency and relevance of audit evidence obtained
Address limitations in audit evidence and respond appropriately when evidence is contradictory or incomplete

The webinar will adopt a practical, application-driven approach, highlighting common pitfalls, inspection findings, and audit failure risks associated with weak evidence. Key areas such as the use of external confirmations, management representations, analytical procedures, and technology-generated evidence will be explored in line with current audit practice expectations.
By the end of the session, participants will be better equipped to apply ISA 500 in their day-to-day professional practice. This will enable them to deliver effective and sound audit opinions that are adequately backed by credible, defensible, and high-quality audit evidence.
Target Audience
This training is primarily meant for preparers of financial statements and assurance professionals although not limited to accountancy practitioners only, staff from other units are highly encouraged to attend.
Continuous Professional Development Units
Members of ICPAK and those from other reciprocating professional bodies will earn 2 CPD units upon successfully attending all conference sessions.

THE ABCs OF FINANCE: FINANCE FOR NON-FINANCE PROFESSIONALS CONFERENCE
2026-05-04 09:00 - 2026-05-08 15:30 | Sawela Lodge, Naivasha, 00100, Kenya
INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
THE ABCs OF FINANCE: FINANCE FOR NON-FINANCE PROFESSIONALS CONFERENCE
Theme: Empowering Non-Finance Professionals with Practical Financial Insights for Informed Decision-Making
Date: 4th-8th May 2026
Time: 09.00am-03.30pm
Venue: Sawela Lodge, Naivasha.
OVERVIEW
In today’s interconnected business environment, financial literacy is no longer confined to accountants and finance specialists. Non-finance professionals, such as managers in marketing, operations, HR, or IT, increasingly need to understand financial principles to contribute effectively to organizational success. Finance training equips them with the tools to interpret financial data, make informed decisions, and align their departmental goals with the company’s overall financial health.
There is a growing need for professionals in all fields to have a basic understanding of financial concepts that would enable them to contribute to organizational decision-making. Interpreting financial information and appreciating the consequences of budgetary decisions, or understanding the financial health of an entity, are no longer the exclusive domain of a finance department. As organizations increasingly adopt more integrated approaches to operations, finance continues to play a central role in ensuring transparency, sustainability, and responsible resource allocation. Enhancing financial competencies among staff outside the finance function supports better governance structures, reduces risk, and enhances the effective monitoring of performance
One of the primary benefits of finance training for non-finance professionals is enhanced decision-making. By understanding key concepts like budgeting and cost control, non finance professionals will be able evaluate the financial implications of their choices, leading to more strategic and profitable outcomes. This empowers them to identify opportunities for cost savings and revenue growth within their roles.
This finance training will also bridge communication gaps between departments. Non-finance staff often collaborate with finance teams on projects or reports. With basic financial knowledge, they can speak the “language of finance,” ask relevant questions, and provide meaningful input, fostering better teamwork and reducing misunderstandings. The conference will delve into reading and interpreting financial statements—the balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement. These documents provide a snapshot of a company’s financial position, performance, and liquidity, allowing professionals to assess health and spot potential issues early. The discussions will bridge the gap in knowledge by equipping the non-finance professional with fundamental financial concepts supportive of informed decision-making, accountability, and performance improvement across roles and sectors.
The ABCs of Finance for Non-Finance Professionals Conference aims to demystify core areas of finance perceived to be complex. The approach is designed to give participants insights, in a practical way, into how financial systems work, what the financial statements really say, and how financial plans drive strategy and operational priorities. This conference offers an enabling, yet simplified, approach toward financial literacy, empowering professionals to engage confidently with financial conversations and meaningfully contribute to organizational planning and control processes.
At the end of the conference, participants should be able to appreciate how to interpret financial information; understand how budgets are prepared; analyze the performance of an organization; and assist executives in strategic resource allocation decisions.
The following topics will be discussed during the conference:

Introduction to Financial Management – Understanding the role of finance in organizational operations and decision-making.
Understanding Key Financial Statements – A practical guide to interpreting the statement of financial position, income statement, and cash flow statement.
Budgeting and Budgetary Controls – How budgets are prepared, monitored, and applied to manage resources effectively.
Cost Management and Cost Behaviour – Key concepts in identifying, classifying, and managing costs within different operational settings.
Working Capital and Cash Flow Essentials – Appreciating the importance of liquidity, short-term financing, and operational cash flow.
Financial Ratios and Performance Analysis – How to evaluate financial performance and organizational health using simple analytical tools.
Internal Controls and Risk Awareness for Non-Finance Staff – Strengthening accountability and safeguarding organizational resources.
Linking Finance to Strategy and Decision-Making – Understanding how financial insights support long-term planning and strategic initiatives.
Ethics, Compliance, and Governance Considerations – Building awareness of ethical responsibilities and compliance requirements influencing financial operations.

TARGET AUDIENCE
This course targets professionals from various fields who need to use financial information regularly in their interactions or organizational planning and decision-making. It will also be of relevance and great value to managers and supervisors in operations, human resources, procurement, administration, project management, and corporate services who seek a stronger foundation in the concepts of finance for improving their effectiveness. The program will also be of value to entrepreneurs, SMEs, heads of departments, technical staff seeking an improvement in financial literacy, and an understanding of budgets, reports, and financial performance indicators of organizations. Also targeted are public sector officers, NGO personnel, and people moving into positions that have financial responsibilities, for whom discussions will not only enhance their capacity but also provide them with the ability to support good governance, accountability, and proper resource management within their institutions.

The webinar will also cover emerging industry practices, common challenges in implementation, and lessons learned from initial reporting periods. Participants will gain insight into how IFRS 17 affects financial performance, balance sheet presentation, and stakeholder communication, with a view to promoting consistent application, improved transparency, and stronger governance in insurance financial reporting.
The webinar will highlight key aspects of IFRS 17 relating to the following:
Insurance Contract Grouping and Profitability Assessment
• Annual cohort requirements and portfolio segmentation
• Identification of onerous and profitable groups
• Implications for performance reporting
Discounting Techniques and Financial Assumptions
• Selection of discount rates and yield curves
• Treatment of liquidity characteristics
• Impact of interest rate movements on insurance liabilities
Risk Adjustment Methodologies

International Taxes and Transfer Pricing Workshop -Mandatory Training
2026-05-06 09:00 - 2026-08-31 15:30 | Virtual Delivery
INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
International Taxes & Transfer Pricing Workshop
Date: 6th – 7th May 2026
Time: 9.00-4.00PM
Mode Of Delivery: Virtual
(This is one of the mandatory training courses for practicing certificate consideration)
Overview
The world business environment has continued to change in ways that blur borders and extend the reach of enterprises beyond domestic jurisdictions. As cross-border transactions have become more routine, the tax complexities associated with such activities have mounted and the level of scrutiny applied to them has intensified. Compliance regimes are being clamped down globally, multinational groups rethink operating models, and professional accountants are expected to show deeper competence in international taxation regimes and transfer pricing principles. In this setting, practitioners serving clients with either regional or global footprints must therefore balance strategic tax planning with strict adherence to the law.
This workshop aims to provide a reflective yet practical look into international taxation and transfer pricing, focusing on the realities faced by Kenyan entities involved in cross-border arrangements. It combines issues of current concern, regulator expectations, and technical guidance that practitioners need to internalize in meeting their competency obligations. Participants will have a greater insight into how the multinational groups structure their operations, how the tax authorities construe such arrangements, and how accountants can assist in complying without unduly compromising sound commercial decisions.
With the increased attention that the OECD, the African Tax Administration Forum, and KRA are giving to the fair taxation of multinational operations, this workshop will demystify selected technical concepts using case studies and regulatory updates. This is also an avenue through which practitioners can reflect on how domestic tax rules interact with evolving international standards, particularly with respect to transfer pricing documentation, resolution of disputes, and management of tax risks. Each session is structured in a way that enhances both theoretical and practical insights to ensure that participants leave the sessions with information they can apply directly in client advisory, audits, and organization tax planning.
In the end, the program reinforces ICPAK’s commitment to enhancing the professional competence of its members, especially those studying for or maintaining a Practicing Certificate. The workshop deepens appreciation of various international tax dynamics and transfer pricing obligations, thus enabling practitioners to contribute towards ensuring that the profession upholds integrity and, by extension, supports transparent, equitable tax practices in an increasingly interdependent economy.

THE INAUGURAL LUMINARY MEN ACCOUNTANTS AND LEADERS CONFERENCE
2026-05-11 09:00 - 2026-05-15 15:30 | Sarova Whitesands Beach Hotel and Spa, Mombasa, Kenya
INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
THE INAUGURAL LUMINARY MEN ACCOUNTANTS & LEADERS CONFERENCE
Theme: Empowering Men for Transformative Leadership in Different Spheres
Date: 11th – 15th May 2026
Time: 09.00am-03.30pm
Venue: Sarova Whitesands Beach Resort & Spa, Mombasa
OVERVIEW
The Luminary Men Accountants & Leaders Conference is designed as a premium platform for bringing together male professionals in the accounting, finance, and leadership spheres to reflect upon the evolving role they play in today’s corporate and socio-economic environment. With the relentless evolution of the workplaces supported by technological innovation, regulatory changes, and a call for a new orientation of leadership, men in the profession will need to continuously reboot their skills, mindset, and approaches to leadership.
Job skills training forms the technical foundation for success in professional men’s lives across all professions. Little emphasis is given to life skills such as personal finance management, communication, emotional intelligence, leadership, and resilience to ensure professional men are equipped with a well-rounded skill set for success in the workplace and home. The modern workplace is also experiencing continuous disruption from technology calling for upskilling and continuous learning. Increasingly, the key to thriving in the future workplace will be the ability to harness the power of technology while addressing the ethical and social issues that come with a digitally transformed workplace.
One crucial topic for men in leadership is emotional intelligence. Traditional expectations often discourage men from expressing vulnerability or empathy, yet modern leadership demands self-awareness and the ability to read and manage emotions in oneself and others. Developing emotional intelligence allows male leaders to build stronger relationships, resolve conflicts effectively, and foster trust within teams. By embracing empathy alongside assertiveness, men can move beyond outdated stereotypes of stoicism and lead with greater authenticity and impact in diverse workplaces.
Another important area is inclusive leadership and allyship. As workplaces evolve toward greater gender equity, men in leadership positions must actively support diversity by challenging biases, promoting inclusive decision-making, and serving as allies to underrepresented groups. This involves recognizing privileges associated with traditional male traits in leadership and using influence to create environments where all voices are valued. Male leaders who prioritize inclusion not only enhance team performance but also contribute to broader organizational and societal progress.
Mental health and personal well-being represent a vital topic, particularly amid rising reports of isolation and stress among men. Leaders face immense pressure to provide and perform, often leading to burnout or suppressed emotions. Prioritizing resilience, seeking mentorship, and modeling healthy habits—such as work-life balance and emotional literacy—enable men to sustain long-term effectiveness. Addressing personal health head-on prevents crises and sets a positive example for teams.
Adapting to modern challenges, including economic insecurity and rapid change, is essential for male leaders. Many men grapple with shifting roles in a world of automation, remote work, and evolving expectations of masculinity. Cultivating adaptability, continuous learning, and strategic thinking helps navigate these uncertainties while maintaining purpose and connection.
Finally, balancing strength with vulnerability defines contemporary male leadership. Integrating traditional qualities like decisiveness and vision with openness, humility, and relational skills creates a more holistic approach. Men who seek role models, process past experiences, and build supportive networks lead not through dominance alone but through empowered, collaborative influence that inspires lasting loyalty and results.
The entry of younger generations in the workforce has also become a major disruptor of the rule based traditional workplace. However, future ready companies see the existence of a multigenerational diversity as a great advantage and work tirelessly to unlock the benefits of a multigenerational workplace by leveraging the strengths of each generation.
Complementing the technical and leadership-focused discussions, the conference will cover holistic wellbeing, work-life balance, and personal development, recognizing that effective leadership is developed not only through professional competencies but also in emotionally resilient and purposeful living. The Inaugural Luminary Men Accountants & Leaders Conference aims to create a reflective space, networking opportunities, and mentorship for the nurturing of all-round leaders who have the potential to make positive changes within organizations and greater society. The conference will seek to inspire its participants to achieve excellence, integrity, and adaptability as fundamental attributes through keynote sessions, panel conversations, and practical insights from distinguished leaders.
The following are topics to be discussed during the conference:

Modern Leadership for the Male Professional
Inclusive Leadership & Allyship – the Pinnacle of Survival
Emotional Intelligence & Vulnerable Leadership for Men
Recognizing and Countering Toxic Masculinity Patterns in Leadership
Power Dynamics and How Male Leaders Can Redistribute Influence

Overview of IFRS S1 and S2 webinar
2026-05-12 16:00 - 2026-05-14 18:00 | Virtual Delivery
INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
Overview of IFRS S1 & S2 Webinar
12th May 2026
Time: 4.00- 6.00PM
Venue – Virtual
Overview
The release of IFRS S1: General Requirements for Disclosure of Sustainability-related Financial Information and IFRS S2: Climate-related Disclosures represents a transformative shift in corporate reporting and a cornerstone for organizations seeking to integrate sustainability into mainstream financial reporting. Developed by the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB), these standards provide a systematic and comprehensive framework for identifying, assessing, and disclosing sustainability-related risks and opportunities that could affect an entity’s cash flow, access to finance, or cost of capital. Well-prepared disclosures enhance transparency, facilitate accountability, and provide stakeholders with relevant, faithful, comparable, and verifiable information, thereby supporting informed decision-making and strengthening investor confidence.
IFRS S1 establishes overarching principles for sustainability disclosures, emphasizing four key pillars: governance, strategy, risk management, and metrics & targets. By requiring entities to consider material sustainability matters, assess reporting boundaries, and ensure consistency with financial statements, IFRS S1 enables organizations to present a clear and holistic picture of how sustainability issues influence their performance and long-term value creation. IFRS S2 builds on this foundation by focusing specifically on climate-related risks and opportunities, including physical and transition risks, scenario analysis, climate resilience strategies, and greenhouse gas emissions across Scopes 1, 2, and 3. Together, these standards promote integrated thinking, encouraging organizations to move beyond isolated reporting of ESG issues toward a comprehensive approach that aligns sustainability disclosures with strategic objectives and financial performance.
Creating and implementing disclosures under IFRS S1 and S2 is central to proactive sustainability reporting. It provides a practical tool for identifying and monitoring emerging risks, evaluating the organization’s climate exposure, and aligning mitigation strategies with operational and strategic priorities. By systematically documenting and disclosing material sustainability matters, organizations are better prepared to anticipate disruptions, respond to stakeholder expectations, and allocate resources efficiently. This contributes to enhanced governance, reduced uncertainty, and improved resilience, ultimately increasing the organization’s ability to achieve long-term objectives.
It is in response to this evolving landscape that the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) has organized this webinar to equip participants with skills for understanding, interpreting, and applying IFRS S1 and IFRS S2. The session is designed to cover the following topics:

Introduction to IFRS Sustainability standards
IFRS S1 general requirements for sustainability-related financial information
IFRS S2: Climate-related Disclosures – Risk Management, Metrics and Targets, Core Disclosure Requirements
IFRS S2: GHG Emissions – Introduction to GHG Emissions under IFRS S2, GHG Emission Key Concepts and Terminology
Implementation Considerations, Readiness Assessment, and Assurance Requirements

TARGET AUDIENCE:
This workshop will be useful to all Professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the Profession, Sustainability Practitioners, Consultants, Auditors, Advisors , Investors and Financial Analysts

THE LEADERSHIP SUMMIT
Theme: Executive Leadership in the Era of Intelligent Transformation
Date: 25th – 29th May 2026
Time: 09.00am-03.30pm
Venue: Conrad Singapore Marina Bay, Singapore
OVERVIEW
In today’s dynamic and interconnected business environment, leaders face the challenge of navigating rapidly evolving technologies, shifting market conditions and increasing societal expectations. Strategic agility is essential for anticipating change and responding effectively, enabling executives to guide their organizations with clarity and foresight. Alongside this, decision-making in the age of AI requires a delicate balance between harnessing technological advancements and maintaining ethical judgment, ensuring that innovation strengthens organizational performance and integrity.
Resilience has become a defining characteristic of effective leadership. Leaders who foster organizational resilience are equipped to manage disruptions, cyber risks and unforeseen challenges while sustaining high-performing teams. Creating cultures grounded in trust, inclusion, and psychological safety allows creativity and innovation to flourish. Equally, embedding sustainability into strategy and operations is critical, as leaders are increasingly responsible for integrating ESG principles into decision-making and aligning long-term value creation with broader societal impact.
Leadership today also demands an appreciation of diversity across generations and perspectives. Executives who can manage multigenerational teams effectively foster collaboration, engagement and innovation. Responsible adoption of AI and robust data governance reinforce organizational accountability and stakeholder trust. Complementing these external responsibilities, leaders must maintain personal financial wellness and mental resilience, recognizing that sustainable performance depends on both professional and personal equilibrium.
Modern leadership in the Era of Intelligent Transformation blends creativity, ethical stewardship, and strategic foresight. Driving innovation while maintaining resilience, leveraging technology responsibly, cultivating high-performing inclusive cultures, and embedding sustainability into decision-making are all critical to navigating the complexities of contemporary organizations. In light of this, ICPAK will hold a one-week Leadership Summit in Singapore themed “Executive Leadership in the Era of Intelligent Transformation,” bringing together senior corporate and public sector executives and emerging leaders for in-depth discussions on strategies, mindsets, and practices essential for leading effectively in today’s dynamic and technology-driven environment. The seminar discussions will focus on:
Strategic Agility for Executives – Navigating Rapid Shifts in Policy, Markets & Technology.
Executive Decision-Making in the Age of AI – Insights for Modern Leaders
Leading Organizational Resilience – Preparing for Disruptions, Cyber Risks & Black Swan Events
Responsible AI Leadership – Balancing Innovation, Ethics & Accountability
Leading Through Influence – Advanced Communication & Stakeholder Engagement for Executives
Executive Playbook for High-Performance Cultures – Building Trust, Inclusion & Psychological Safety
Leadership for Innovation – Creating Environments That Support Creativity & Experimentation

RISK CHAMPIONS WORKSHOP 2026
2026-05-27 09:00 - 2026-05-29 15:30 | EKA HOTEL, ELDORET, 00200, Kenya
INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
RISK CHAMPIONS WORKSHOP
Theme: Empowering Risk Champions to strengthen organization resilience and governance
27th – 29th May 2026
Eka Hotel, Eldoret
Overview
In today’s dynamic and uncertain business environment, organizations are exposed to a wide range of risks that can affect strategy execution, operational performance, and long-term sustainability. Effective risk management is therefore essential, and Risk Champions play a vital role in embedding a proactive risk culture across the organization. By linking day-to-day operational realities with strategic oversight, Risk Champions strengthen governance, promote accountability, and enhance organizational resilience.
Developing Risk Champions goes beyond basic awareness of risk concepts. It involves equipping individuals with practical skills to identify emerging risks, assess their potential impact, prioritize responses, and implement appropriate mitigation measures. Acting as the first line of defense, Risk Champions monitor risk exposures, coordinate risk information across departments, and ensure alignment with organizational objectives and regulatory requirements. This proactive approach supports informed decision-making, improves transparency, and reinforces stakeholder confidence.
Modern risk environments are increasingly complex and interconnected, organizations must therefore adopt integrated frameworks and technology-enabled solutions, including Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) platforms, to enhance real-time risk tracking, scenario analysis, and enterprise-wide visibility, thereby positioning risk management as a strategic decision-support function.
The Risk Champions Workshop provides a comprehensive overview of the ERM process and its key components, including risk appetite, governance structures, and roles and responsibilities. It is in response to this evolving landscape that the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) has organized this workshop to equip participants with practical skills, insights, and tools to function as proactive Risk Champions who can influence governance, decision-making, and enterprise risk management at all levels.
The workshop is designed to cover the following topics:

Risk registers development Practical course

INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA

Risk registers development practical course Webinar
Theme- Strengthening Governance Through Effective Risk Registers
Date: 9th June 2026
Time: 04.pm-06.00pm
Delivery Mode: Virtual
Overview
Risk registers are a critical component of effective risk management and organizational governance. They provide a structured and proactive method for identifying, analyzing, prioritizing, and monitoring risks that may impede the achievement of strategic and operational objectives. A well-prepared risk register enhances transparency, facilitates accountability by assigning risk ownership, and supports the tracking of mitigation actions. This process strengthens decision-making, promotes robust governance practices, and fosters a culture of preparedness and resilience.
An effective risk register goes beyond recording risks. It should be constructed on a framework that classifies risks into categories, applies clear assessment criteria such as likelihood and impact, and links each risk to appropriate mitigation measures and controls. To remain relevant, the risk register must be dynamic, evolving with changes in both internal processes and the external environment. Integrating the risk register within an Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) framework ensures alignment with strategic goals, regulatory compliance, and institutional accountability.
In today’s complex operating environment, risks are interconnected, including cybersecurity, regulatory changes, ESG requirements, and reputational factors. Treating risks in isolation can leave organizations exposed to cascading effects. Modern approaches encourage the use of technology-enabled solutions, such as Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) platforms, which support real-time monitoring, scenario analysis, and informed decision-making.
The Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) finds it necessary to conduct this webinar to equip members with practical insights and skills to utilize risk registers effectively in governance, oversight, and decision-making processes.
The webinar will cover the following areas;

Introduction to Risk Registers

Purpose, governance role, and relevance for boards and management

Core Components of a Risk Register

Risk description, categories, ownership, controls, and mitigation strategies

Risk Identification Techniques and Stakeholder Engagement
Risk Classification and Significance

Strategic, operational, financial, compliance, reputational, and emerging risks

Effective Risk Assessment and Prioritization

Likelihood, impact, velocity, and interdependencies

Practical Walkthrough of a Risk Register from end to end
