SUMMARY:THE INTERNAL AUDIT MASTERCLASS-MANDATORY TRAINING
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nTHE INTERNAL AUDIT MASTERCLASS (MANDATORY TRAINING)\nTheme: Driving Organizational Resilience\, Governance Excellence\, and Sustainable Value Through Advanced Internal Audit Practice\nDate: 20th – 24th April 2026\nTime: 09.00am-03.30pm\nVenue: Eka Hotel\, Eldoret\n(This is one of the mandatory trainings for practicing certificate consideration) \nOVERVIEW \nInternal audit is a fundamental pillar of corporate governance\, entrusted with safeguarding organizational assets\, strengthening internal control systems\, and supporting boards and management in fulfilling their mandates. In today’s volatile and competitive environment\, internal auditors must possess a deep understanding of the business—its mission\, strategic priorities\, risks\, and operating landscape. At the heart of the profession lies a guiding question: Are we governing\, managing\, and executing in ways that protect and create sustainable value? \nGlobal and regional dynamics are reshaping organizational realities. Technological disruption\, digital transformation\, cybersecurity threats\, heightened regulatory demands\, ESG reporting expectations\, shifting markets\, and economic uncertainties have intensified stakeholder calls for transparency\, accountability\, and timely insights into emerging risks. This evolution has elevated internal audit from a compliance-oriented function to a forward-looking\, strategic partner in organizational resilience and governance excellence. \nThe release of the Global Internal Audit Standards (2025) marks a milestone for the profession. These harmonized standards set enhanced expectations around ethical conduct\, independence\, objectivity\, competence\, and audit quality. They emphasize robust assurance methodologies\, data-driven audits\, agile practices\, and a sharpened focus on risk management and governance effectiveness. To remain relevant\, internal auditors must integrate advanced analytics\, digital auditing tools\, ESG considerations\, and strategic insight into their work. \nAcross Kenya and the wider region\, organizations face economic pressures\, governance reforms\, digital adoption\, climate-related risks\, and tightening regulatory oversight. This dynamic environment demands internal auditors who can provide credible assurance\, exercise sound judgment\, maintain professional skepticism\, and deliver evidence-based insights to executive leadership. Effectiveness is now measured not only by the quality of findings\, but by the ability to anticipate risks\, guide decision-making\, and enhance long-term organizational value. \nLeading an internal audit function requires a delicate balance of technical excellence\, diplomacy\, and leadership. With teams often comprising both seasoned auditors and newcomers\, leaders must manage expectations\, uphold audit quality\, nurture talent\, and safeguard independence. Navigating organizational politics\, communicating difficult messages\, and aligning with governance priorities call for maturity\, resilience\, and strategic acumen. \nInternal audit functions must also continually assess their readiness and relevance. This involves strengthening competencies\, adopting new technologies\, advancing methodologies\, and conducting periodic quality assessments. A progressive audit function embraces continuous improvement\, fosters ethical culture\, and reinforces accountability across the organization. \nAgainst this backdrop\, ICPAK has organized the Internal Audit Masterclass\, a five-day program bringing together internal auditors\, audit committee members\, governance practitioners\, and professionals from diverse sectors. The Masterclass will explore the Global Internal Audit Standards (2025)\, advanced risk-based auditing\, governance collaboration\, ESG assurance\, cybersecurity\, digital auditing\, and strategic advisory capabilities. Designed to be highly experiential\, the program combines expert-led presentations\, case studies\, scenario-based learning\, practical demonstrations\, and peer exchange. Participants will gain insights into what works\, what does not\, and what defines excellence in modern internal audit practice\, while networking widely with peers from both public and private sectors. \nBy the end of the program\, participants will be equipped to elevate internal audit quality\, reinforce governance frameworks\, deliver value-adding assurance\, and support decision-making processes that advance transparency\, accountability\, and sustainable performance. The Masterclass underscores ICPAK’s commitment to strengthening the internal audit profession and empowering practitioners to meet the demands of an increasingly complex risk environment. \nThe Masterclass is divided into the following five modules covering key fundamental learning areas: \n\n\n\nDAY\nMODULE\nTOPICS\nKEY AREAS TO BE COVERED\n\n\n\n\nDAY 1\n1.

SUMMARY:IFRS 5-Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations webinar
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nIFRS 5-Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations\nDate: 21st April 2026\nTime: 4:00- 6:00PM\nVenue: Virtual \nOverview \nToday’s business environment is increasingly dynamic\, characterized by frequent restructurings\, divestments\, mergers\, and strategic exits. These developments have significantly increased the occurrence of assets held for sale and discontinued operations\, making their correct accounting more critical than ever. Accurate classification\, measurement\, and presentation under IFRS 5 are essential to safeguarding the credibility of financial statements and ensuring transparent communication to investors and other key stakeholders. \nIFRS 5 provides the authoritative framework for the consistent and transparent accounting of such transactions. However\, its practical application often presents complex judgment areas\, particularly in fast-evolving business situations. This webinar is therefore designed to equip professional accountants with a clear\, practical\, and compliance-focused understanding of IFRS 5. The emphasis is on real-world implementation challenges encountered during asset disposals\, business restructuring\, and strategic repositioning. \nThe session will focus on how to: \n\nDetermine when an asset or disposal group qualifies as “held for sale”\nApply the appropriate measurement requirements at fair value less costs to sell\nIdentify and present discontinued operations accurately\nAssess the impact on profit or loss\, cash flows\, and the statement of financial position\nNavigate complex judgment areas\, including abandoned sales\, reclassification\, and impairment interactions\n\nThe webinar will adopt a practical\, application-driven approach\, highlighting common misclassifications\, disclosure gaps\, and key audit and regulatory expectations. Participants will also gain insight into how IFRS 5 interfaces with other relevant standards\, including IFRS 3\, IAS 36\, IFRS 16\, and IFRS 10. \nBy the end of the session\, participants will be better positioned to apply IFRS 5 with confidence and by so doing enhance the quality and transparency of financial reporting. This is envisaged to minimize compliance risk and communicate more effectively on discontinued operations and asset disposals. \nTarget Audience \nThis 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. \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\nCharges Physical \nVirtual \n \n\n\nAssociate Members\n\nKes. 1\,000\n \n\n\nFull Members\n\nKes. 1\,000\n \n\n\nNon-Member\n\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:ISA 500-Audit Evidence Webinar
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nISA 500-Audit Evidence Webinar\nDate: 28th April 2026\nTime: 4.00-6.00PM\nVenue: Virtual \nOverview \nIn 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. \nISA 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. \nThe session will focus on how to: \n\nDetermine what constitutes sufficient and appropriate audit evidence\nAssess the reliability of evidence from different sources\nApply professional judgment when using information produced by the entity\nEvaluate the consistency and relevance of audit evidence obtained\nAddress limitations in audit evidence and respond appropriately when evidence is contradictory or incomplete\n\nThe 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. \nBy 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. \nTarget Audience \nThis 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. \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 per delegate\n\n\n\nFull Members\nKes. 1\,000 per delegate\n\n\n\nNon-Member\nKes. 1\,000 per delegate\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:THE ABCs OF FINANCE: FINANCE FOR NON-FINANCE PROFESSIONALS CONFERENCE
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nTHE ABCs OF FINANCE: FINANCE FOR NON-FINANCE PROFESSIONALS CONFERENCE\nTheme: Empowering Non-Finance Professionals with Practical Financial Insights for Informed Decision-Making\nDate: 4th-8th May 2026\nTime: 09.00am-03.30pm\nVenue: Sawela Lodge\, Naivasha. \nOVERVIEW \nIn 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. \nThere 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 \nOne 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. \nThis 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. \nThe 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. \nAt 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. \nThe following topics will be discussed during the conference: \n\nIntroduction to Financial Management – Understanding the role of finance in organizational operations and decision-making.\nUnderstanding Key Financial Statements – A practical guide to interpreting the statement of financial position\, income statement\, and cash flow statement.\nBudgeting and Budgetary Controls – How budgets are prepared\, monitored\, and applied to manage resources effectively.\nCost Management and Cost Behaviour – Key concepts in identifying\, classifying\, and managing costs within different operational settings.\nWorking Capital and Cash Flow Essentials – Appreciating the importance of liquidity\, short-term financing\, and operational cash flow.\nFinancial Ratios and Performance Analysis – How to evaluate financial performance and organizational health using simple analytical tools.\nInternal Controls and Risk Awareness for Non-Finance Staff – Strengthening accountability and safeguarding organizational resources.\nLinking Finance to Strategy and Decision-Making – Understanding how financial insights support long-term planning and strategic initiatives.\nEthics\, Compliance\, and Governance Considerations – Building awareness of ethical responsibilities and compliance requirements influencing financial operations.\n\nTARGET AUDIENCE \nThis 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. \nCONTINUOUS 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: \n\n\n\nCategory\nCharges Physical \n\n\nAssociate Members\nKes 64\,000 per Delegate\n\n\nFull Members\nKes. 69\,000 per Delegate\n\n\nNon-Member\nKes. 74\,000 per Delegate\n\n\n\n\nCharges will cater for daytime meals\, conference giveaways\, learning materials\, and certificates of attendance. \nDelegates are advised to make own travel and accommodation arrangements.\n\nONLINE BOOKING \nRegistration: Delegates are reminded to note that online booking for webinar 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.

SUMMARY:IFRS 17: Insurance Contracts webinar
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nIFRS 17: Insurance Contracts\nDate: 5th May 2026\nTime: 4:00 Pm – 6:00 Pm\nMode Of Delivery: Virtual \nOverview \nWhile organisations have come a long way in implementing IFRS 17 from IFRS 4\, there is still a deficiency in understanding technical standpoints\, operational impacts\, and financial reporting results from these new requirements. There is an increasing need to fill the technical capacity gap in both preparers and users for high-quality\, reliable insurance reporting. \nThe aim is to provide participants with hands-on\, yet structured\, insight into the essential principles and reporting requirements of IFRS 17.

SUMMARY:International Taxes and Transfer Pricing Workshop -Mandatory Training
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nInternational Taxes & Transfer Pricing Workshop\nDate: 6th – 7th May 2025\nTime: 9.00-4.00PM\nMode Of Delivery: Virtual\n(This is one of the mandatory training courses for practicing certificate consideration) \nOverview \nThe 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. \nThis 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. \nWith 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. \nIn 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. \nAreas to be covered: – \n\nOverview of International Taxation Frameworks and transfer pricing and Recent global developments\nRegulatory Frameworks\n\n\nOECD Transfer Pricing Guidelines\nArm’s Length Principle\nLocal country TP regulations (overview)\nDocumentation requirements: Master File\, Local File\, Country-by-Country Reporting\n\n\nUnderstanding Inter-company Transactions\nFunctional Analysis (FAR Analysis)\nTransfer Pricing Methods\n\n\nTraditional transaction methods:\nComparable Uncontrolled Price (CUP)\nResale Price Method (RPM)\nCost Plus Method\nTransactional profit methods:\nTNMM\nProfit Split Method\nMethod selection and hierarchy and Strengths and weaknesses of each method\n\n\nTransfer Pricing for Specific Transactions-Intercompany services and management fees\, IP licensing and royalties\, Cost contribution arrangements (CCAs)\, Financial transactions.\nTransfer Pricing Documentation\nTransfer Pricing Risk Management\nPractical Case Studies & Workshops- Industry-specific TP issues (manufacturing\, technology\, financial services etc)\nDigital economy and TP challenges\n\nTarget Audience \nThe workshop is suitable for tax practitioners\, audit professionals\, finance managers\, consultants\, accountants working in multinational organizations\, regulatory officers\, and members pursuing the Practicing Certificate. \nContinuous Professional Development Units (CPD UNITS): \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 10 Structured CPD Units upon successfully completion of the virtual symposium. \nFinancial Commitment \nThe symposium charges are Kshs.10\,000.

SUMMARY:THE INAUGURAL LUMINARY MEN ACCOUNTANTS AND LEADERS CONFERENCE
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nTHE INAUGURAL LUMINARY MEN ACCOUNTANTS & LEADERS CONFERENCE\nTheme: Empowering Men for Transformative Leadership in Different Spheres\nDate: 11th – 15th May 2026\nTime: 09.00am-03.30pm\nVenue: Sarova Whitesands Beach Resort & Spa\, Mombasa \nOVERVIEW \nThe 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. \nJob 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. \nOne 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. \nAnother 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. \nMental 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. \nAdapting 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. \nFinally\, 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. \nThe 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. \nComplementing 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. \nThe following are topics to be discussed during the conference: \n\nModern Leadership for the Male Professional\nInclusive Leadership & Allyship – the Pinnacle of Survival\nEmotional Intelligence & Vulnerable Leadership for Men \nRecognizing and Countering Toxic Masculinity Patterns in Leadership\nPower Dynamics and How Male Leaders Can Redistribute Influence \nMen’s Role in Fostering Inclusive and High-Performing Teams\nMentoring vs. Sponsoring: Why Male Leaders Need to Do More of the Latter\nFinancial Stewardship in the Family\nWork–Life Balance and Personal Well-Being for Professional Men\nMental health\, stress management and resilience\nMan Talk- Panel Discussion on the leadership journey of renowned leaders\nEstate Planning for Male Leaders \nDealing with and Overcoming Divorce \nFuture-of-Work Leadership: AI\, Gen Z expectations\, and the end of traditional “alpha” styles\nBook Review: Man’s Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl- In depth insights into finding purpose\, even in extreme adversity- a core component of resilient leadership\n\n TARGET AUDIENCE \nThe conference targets male professionals from all professional backgrounds doubling up as a mentorship and empowerment forum.  \nCONTINUOUS PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT UNITS (CPD UNITS): \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 20 Structured CPD Units upon successfully completion of the conference. \nFINANCIAL COMMITMENT: \n\n\n\nCategory\nCharges Physical \n\n\nAssociate Members\nKes 64\,000 per Delegate\n\n\nFull Members\nKes. 69\,000 per Delegate\n\n\nNon-Member\nKes. 74\,000 per Delegate\n\n\n\n1.

SUMMARY:Overview of IFRS S1 and S2 webinar
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nOverview of IFRS S1 & S2 Webinar\n12th May 2026\nTime: 4.00- 6.00PM\nVenue – Virtual \nOverview \nThe 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. \nIFRS 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. \nCreating 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. \nIt 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.

SUMMARY:THE LEADERSHIP SUMMIT 2026
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nTHE LEADERSHIP SUMMIT\nTheme: Executive Leadership in the Era of Intelligent Transformation\nDate: 25th – 29th May 2026\nTime: 09.00am-03.30pm\nVenue: Conrad Singapore Marina Bay\, Singapore \nOVERVIEW \nIn 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. \nResilience 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. \nLeadership 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. \nModern leadership in the Era of Intelligent Transformation blends creativity\, ethical stewardship\, and strategic foresight.

SUMMARY:RISK CHAMPIONS WORKSHOP 2026
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nRISK CHAMPIONS WORKSHOP\nTheme: Empowering Risk Champions to strengthen organization resilience and governance\n27th – 29th May 2026\nEka Hotel\, Eldoret \nOverview \nIn 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. \nDeveloping 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. \nModern 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. \nThe 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. \nThe workshop is designed to cover the following topics: \n\n\n\nDAY\nMODULE\nTOPICS\n\n\nDAY 1\nOverview of Risk Management and Processes   \n \n·         What is Risk and Risk Management? \n·         Types of Risks \n·         Risk Management Approaches and Risk Management Processes (ISO 31000) \n·         Risk Management Structure \n·         Risk Identification and assessment\n\n\nRisk Identification and Formulation  \n \n·         Risk Classification\, \n·         Risk Assessment (Identification and Analysis) \n·         Risk Formulation (The Cause-and-Effect Relationship of Risk)\n\n\nRisk Ranking and Treatment  \n \n·         Risk Prioritization and Ranking (The Risk Ranking Matrix) \n·         Risk Assessment and Prioritization Techniques (Practical) \n·         Risk Evaluation \n·         Risk Tolerance and Risk Capacity \n·         Risk Monitoring and Reviewing\,\n\n\nDAY 2\nRisk Matrix and review of Risk Registers (practical) \n  \n \n·         Application of the Risk Matrix \n·         Establishing Risk Registers \n·         Risk Appetite\n\n\nRisk Control   \n \n·         Organizational Resilience and Business Continuity Planning \n·         Risk Control Techniques \n·         Using Key Risk Indicators (KRI’s) \n·         Risk Registers Development \n·         Risk Management Challenges \n·         Risk Maturity\n\n\nRisk Management Implementation  \n \n·         Risk Management Framework \n·         Risk Strategy \n·         Risk Governance \n·         Risk Readiness Checklist \n·         Leading Practices in Risk management Implementation\n\n\nDAY 3\nDriving ERM Initiatives and Implementation Projects: Design to Integration \n·         Overall ERM process\, including governance\, execution\, and reporting.\n\n\nLeveraging Technology: GRC and Cloud-Based Risk Management (Practical) \n \n·         Utilizing Governance\, Risk\, and Compliance platforms and cloud-based solutions to improve risk tracking\, visualization\, and reporting.\n\n\nRisk Mitigation Planning and Scenario Analysis (Practical)\n·         Developing risk responses (avoid\, reduce\, transfer\, accept) \n·         Creating action plans \n·         Testing controls through real-life scenarios\n\n\n\n TARGET AUDIENCE: \nThis workshop will be useful to all Professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the Profession\, Risk Champions\, Risk / Compliance Officers and Managers \,Internal Audit Function \,Internal Control Function \nCONTINUOUS PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT UNITS (CPD UNITS):\nMembers of ICPAK and those from reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 20 Structured CPD Units upon successful completion of the workshop. \nFINANCIAL COMMITMENT: \n\n\n\nCategory\nCharges Physical \n\n\nAssociate Members\nKes 40\,000 per Delegate\n\n\nFull Members\nKes. 45\,000 per Delegate\n\n\nNon-Member\nKes. 50\,000 per Delegate\n\n\n\n\nCharges will cater for daytime meals\, conference giveaways\, learning materials\, and certificates of attendance. \n\n2.   Delegates are advised to make own travel and accommodation arrangements  \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 We call on workshop participants to note that booking is available only online at www.icpak.com and will close one day before the training session.

SUMMARY:Risk registers development Practical course
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nRisk registers development practical course Webinar\nTheme- Strengthening Governance Through Effective Risk Registers\nDate: 9th June 2026\nTime: 04.pm-06.00pm\nDelivery Mode: Virtual \nOverview \nRisk 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. \nAn 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. \nIn 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. \nThe 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. \nThe webinar will cover the following areas; \n\nIntroduction to Risk Registers\n\n\nPurpose\, governance role\, and relevance for boards and management\n\n\nCore Components of a Risk Register\n\n\nRisk description\, categories\, ownership\, controls\, and mitigation strategies\n\n\nRisk Identification Techniques and Stakeholder Engagement\nRisk Classification and Significance\n\n\nStrategic\, operational\, financial\, compliance\, reputational\, and emerging risks\n\n\nEffective Risk Assessment and Prioritization\n\n\nLikelihood\, impact\, velocity\, and interdependencies\n\n\nPractical Walkthrough of a Risk Register from end to end \n\n Target Audience: \nThis webinar will be useful to all professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the profession. \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.
