SUMMARY:Anti–Money Laundering: Requirements for Accounting Professionals Webinar
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nAnti–Money Laundering: Requirements for Accounting Professionals Webinar\nDATE: 16th June 2026\nTIME: 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM\nMode: Virtual \nOverview \nAnti-money laundering (AML) requirements for accounting professionals stem from global efforts to prevent the integration of illicit funds into the legitimate economy. The Financial Action Task Force (FATF)\, an international body\, sets standards through its 40 Recommendations\, designating accountants as “gatekeepers” vulnerable to exploitation when providing services such as managing client funds\, forming companies\, handling real estate transactions\, or advising on tax matters. These recommendations emphasize a risk-based approach\, requiring professionals to assess and mitigate money laundering and terrorist financing risks effectively. \nUnder FATF guidelines\, accounting firms must implement customer due diligence (CDD) measures when engaging in specified activities on behalf of clients. This includes verifying client identity\, understanding the nature of the business relationship\, and identifying beneficial owners of legal entities. Enhanced due diligence is required for high-risk clients\, such as politically exposed persons (PEPs) or those from jurisdictions with weak AML controls\, while simplified measures may apply in low-risk scenarios. \nAccounting professionals are obligated to conduct firm-wide risk assessments to identify vulnerabilities based on client types\, services offered\, and geographic factors. Policies\, controls\, and procedures must be documented and regularly updated\, proportionate to the firm’s size and complexity. This includes appointing a compliance officer (often called a Money Laundering Reporting Officer in some jurisdictions) responsible for oversight and ensuring staff receive ongoing training to recognize suspicious activities. \nA core requirement is the monitoring of client transactions and relationships for red flags\, such as unusually large cash movements\, complex structures without economic purpose\, or links to high-risk countries. If suspicion arises\, professionals must file a Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) to the relevant financial intelligence unit without tipping off the client\, balancing this with professional ethics and confidentiality obligations. \nRecord-keeping is mandatory\, with firms required to retain identification documents\, transaction records\, and risk assessment evidence for at least five years (or longer in some jurisdictions). This supports audits by supervisory bodies and enables traceability in investigations. Non-compliance can result in significant penalties\, including fines\, license revocation\, or criminal prosecution. \nUltimately\, AML compliance protects the integrity of the accounting profession\, mitigates reputational and legal risks\, and contributes to global financial security. Firms are encouraged to use technology for efficient screening and monitoring while staying abreast of regulatory updates through guidance from bodies like FATF\, CCAB\, or national supervisors. Join us for this webinar to get useful insights on the obligations placed on accounting professionals on matters AML \n Target Audience: \nAll professionals\, especially members in practice.  \nCPD Units:  \nMembers who attend the webinar in full will earn 2 Structured CPD Units. \nFinancial Commitment:\nThe Webinar charges are Kshs. 1\,000.

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. Charges will cater for online video access fees\, learning materials\, and e-certificates of attendance. \nOnline Booking \nRegistration: Delegates are reminded to note that online booking for the workshop is mandatory on https://www.icpak.com/event-registration/Online Booking \nWe call on interested participants to note that booking for the event is available online at www.icpak.com  and will close two hours before the training session. \nNational Industrial Training Authority (NITA) Reimbursement \nThe Institute is registered as a trainer with National Industrial Training Authority.

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. At the same time\, market volatility\, inflation uncertainty and evolving investment landscapes are challenging traditional asset allocation strategies. Trustees and scheme management are required to balance long-term liabilities with short-term liquidity needs while maintaining prudence\, transparency and regulatory compliance. \nIn parallel\, the regulatory and professional expectations placed on pension schemes continue to expand. 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. The programme is structured to equip trustees\, finance teams and service providers with actionable tools to strengthen governance\, improve funding decisions\, align investments with liabilities\, and respond effectively to emerging risks that threaten long-term member outcomes. \nAdditionally\, the following topics will be discussed during the sessions: \n\n\n\nDAY\nMODULE\nTOPICS\n\n\nDAY

SUMMARY:RETIREMENT BENEFITS INDUSTRY CONFERENCE (virtual option)
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nRETIREMENT BENEFITS INDUSTRY CONFERENCE \nDate: 22nd – 24th July 2026\nTime: 9:00am – 4:00pm\nVenue: Virtual Delivery \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. At the same time\, market volatility\, inflation uncertainty and evolving investment landscapes are challenging traditional asset allocation strategies. Trustees and scheme management are required to balance long-term liabilities with short-term liquidity needs while maintaining prudence\, transparency and regulatory compliance. \nIn parallel\, the regulatory and professional expectations placed on pension schemes continue to expand. 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. The programme is structured to equip trustees\, finance teams and service providers with actionable tools to strengthen governance\, improve funding decisions\, align investments with liabilities\, and respond effectively to emerging risks that threaten long-term member outcomes. \nAdditionally\, the following topics will be discussed during the sessions: \n\n\n\nDAY\nMODULE\nTOPICS\n\n\nDAY 1\nThe Role of Accounting in Pension Governance and Fiduciary Oversight \n \n·         Position of the accountant within the retirement benefits ecosystem \n·         How financial information supports trustee decision-making and accountability \n·         Link between accounting\, fiduciary duty and member protection \n·         Regulatory expectations on financial stewardship of pension assets \n·         Common financial reporting weaknesses observed in pension schemes \n \n\n\nAccounting for Pension Liabilities and Actuarial Valuations \n \n·         Relationship between actuarial valuation reports and financial statements \n·         Accounting implications of actuarial assumptions (discount rates\, inflation\, mortality) \n·         Treatment of surpluses and deficits in pension scheme accounts \n·         Sensitivity analysis and disclosure of key actuarial judgments \n·         Impact of funding position on going concern and financial sustainability assessments \n \n\n\nPreparation and Disclosure of Pension Scheme Financial Statements\n·         Application of IAS 26 and relevant IFRS requirements to pension schemes \n·         Accounting for contributions\, benefits payable and benefit payments \n·         Investment income recognition and expense classification \n·         Fair value measurement and disclosure requirements \n·         Related party transactions\, contingencies and subsequent events \n \n\n\nDAY 2\nInvestment Accounting\, Valuation and Performance Reporting\n·         Accounting treatment of listed and unlisted investments \n·         Fair value hierarchy and valuation techniques for pension assets \n·         Property\, private equity and alternative investment accounting \n·         Impairment considerations and income recognition \n·         Reporting investment performance in financial statements and trustee reports \n \n\n\nUnderstanding the IFRS Sustainability Reporting Architecture\n·         The Need for Sustainability Reporting \n·         Purpose and scope of IFRS S1 and S2 \n·         Position of sustainability disclosures within general-purpose financial reporting \n·         Relationship between IFRS Sustainability Standards and financial statements \n·         Transition from voluntary ESG reports to regulated disclosures \n·         Implications for preparers\, trustees\, and auditors \n \n\n\nGeneral Requirements \n \n·         Sources of Guidance \n·         Location of Disclosures \n·         Timing of reporting \n·         Comparative information \n·         Statement of Compliance \n·         Judgments\, uncertainties & errors \n·         Best practices in data collection \n·         Building capacity within the organization \n·         Transition Reliefs\n\n\nDAY 3\nIdentifying Material Sustainability-related Risks and Opportunities\n·         Definition of sustainability-related risks and opportunities under IFRS S1 \n·         Financial materiality vs impact materiality \n·         Practical approaches to identifying material topics \n·         Use of value chain analysis in materiality assessment \n·         Documentation and governance of materiality judgments \n·\n\n\nSelecting and Reporting Sustainability Metrics\n·         Principles for selecting appropriate metrics \n·         Industry-based disclosures and use of SASB standards \n·         Quantitative vs qualitative metrics \n·         Data sources\, assumptions\, and estimation uncertainty \n·         Ensuring consistency and comparability \n \n\n\nGHG Accounting\n·         Cross-industry climate metrics \n·         Introduction to GHG Emissions \n·         Climate-Related Financial Risk and GHG Emissions \n·         GHG disclosure \n·         GHG key concepts \n·         GHG measurements \n·         Disaggregation of GHG emissions. \n \n\n\n\nTARGET AUDIENCE \nThis course will be useful to professional accountants and those aspiring the profession. \nFINANCIAL INVESTMENT  \nThe conference  charges are Ksh 15\,000 per delegate for both members and non-members. \nONLINE BOOKING: \nWe call on seminar participants to note that booking is available only online at www.icpak.com/events. \nDelegates are reminded to note that online booking for training sessions is MANDATORY.   This is available either online at www.icpak.com/events  or on the ICPAK Live – A smart phone-based application that is available from google store. \nNATIONAL INDUSTRIAL TRAINING AUTHORITY (NITA) REIMBURSEMENT: \nThe Institute is registered as a trainer with National Industrial Training Authority.

SUMMARY:Evening Networking Forum- Emotional Intelligence
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nEvening Networking Forum- Emotional Intelligence\nTheme- Strengthening Emotional Intelligence for Impactful Leadership and Professional Excellence\nDate: 29th July 2026\nTime: 04.00pm-06.00pm\nVenue- CPA Centre \nOverview \nEmotional Intelligence (EI) has become an essential capability in today’s professional world\, influencing how individuals understand their emotions\, build meaningful relationships\, and make grounded decisions. Unlike IQ\, which measures cognitive ability\, EI combines thinking and feeling to support self-awareness\, emotional regulation\, and authentic decision-making. It enables individuals to manage their reactions\, meet emotional needs\, and navigate situations with clarity and intention. Because EI predicts effectiveness and can be developed over time\, it offers a unique pathway to personal fulfillment and professional success. \nIn modern workplaces\, EI is increasingly recognized as a strategic competency that enhances communication\, strengthens trust\, and enables professionals to respond ethically under pressure. For accountants\, auditors\, finance practitioners\, and business leaders\, EI plays a pivotal role in managing stakeholder expectations\, upholding integrity\, and maintaining composure in high-stakes environments. By identifying emotional triggers and managing emotional hijacking\, professionals cultivate the resilience and sound judgment required in complex and demanding roles. \nA strong grounding in Emotional Intelligence supports self-awareness\, emotional regulation\, empathy\, and social competence skills that enable individuals to manage conflict effectively\, give constructive feedback\, and lead with authenticity. In fields where technical expertise is expected\, EI becomes a key differentiator that enhances ethical behavior\, client care\, decision-making\, and leadership effectiveness. Professionals with high EI are better equipped to adapt to change\, handle stress\, and respond calmly in workplaces characterized by tight deadlines and regulatory scrutiny. \nBeyond the individual level\, EI has become central to building healthy organizational cultures. Teams with strong emotional intelligence demonstrate greater collaboration\, accountability\, innovation\, and psychological safety. Leaders who apply EI foster inclusive environments where people feel respected\, motivated\, and empowered to perform at their best. As organizations confront growing complexity\, diversity\, and evolving work dynamics\, EI has emerged as a critical driver of trust\, agility\, and long-term performance. \nIt is in recognition of this growing importance that ICPAK has organized the Evening Networking Forum. The session provides professionals with an opportunity to deepen their understanding of Emotional Intelligence through guided discussions\, real-life scenarios\, and practical exercises. Participants will explore their emotional strengths\, practice empathy-centered communication\, and learn how EI influences leadership\, teamwork\, and conflict management. By blending learning with live networking\, the forum equips attendees to apply EI concepts immediately while strengthening their professional connections and personal growth journeys. \nThe forum is designed to cover the following topics: \nIntroduction to Emotional Intelligence \n\nDefinition\, principles\, and components of Emotional Intelligence\nUnderstanding emotions and responses\nWhy EI matters in modern professional practice\nDifference between EQ and IQ\n\n\nHow emotional intelligence differs from other intelligences\n\n\npractical: Analyze personal emotional triggers\n\nAssessing and Developing Emotional Intelligence \n\nConducting an emotional intelligence test\nBuilding self-awareness and self-motivation\nPracticing self-regulation techniques\nUsing journaling for self-reflection\nCreate an EI development plan\n\nThe EI Mirror: Guided Self-Reflection and Practical Application \n\nStructured emotional self-assessment aligned to workplace dynamics\nIdentifying emotional triggers\, communication styles\, and behavioural blind spots\nPeer-based reflection exercise focusing on empathy and active listening\nGroup debrief synthesizing personal insights and improvement strategies\n\nSocial Competencies and Empathy \n\nDeveloping empathy in workplace interactions\nEnhancing relationship management skills\nBuilding social skills for collaboration\nUsing active listening techniques\n\nEmotional Intelligence and Professional Effectiveness \n\nRole of EI in leadership\, ethical decision-making\, and interpersonal influence\nEnhancing teamwork\, client engagement\, and stakeholder communication\nManaging stress\, feedback\, and conflict in high-pressure environments\n\nApplying Emotional Intelligence at Work \n\nPracticing assertive communication\nApplying work etiquette and professionalism\n\n TARGET AUDIENCE: \nThis workshop will be useful to all Professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the Profession\, Team leaders\, managers\, and supervisors\, Public sector\, private sector\, and NGO professionals\, Entrepreneurs and business owners \nCONTINUOUS PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT UNITS (CPD UNITS):\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. 2\,000.

SUMMARY:ANNUAL PRACTITIONERS CONVENTION-Mandatory Training (physical option)
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nANNUAL PRACTITIONERS’ CONVENTION\nTheme: Enhancing quality and efficiency in audit\, tax and advisory engagements\nDate: 12th – 14th August 2026\nTime: 9:00 am – 3:30 pm\nVenue: Sarova Woodlands\, Nakuru \n(This is one of the mandatory trainings for Practicing Certificate consideration) \nOVERVIEW \nThe accountancy profession has undergone significant developments and experienced a lot of evolution over the past few years.  In recent years\, the global accounting profession has undergone significant transformation due to rapid technological advancements\, evolving regulatory frameworks\, increasing stakeholder expectations\, and the growing emphasis on sustainability and ethics. The audit environment has particularly experienced tremendous developments arising from the effect of new emerging and stringent regulations and standards among other social and economic developments.  This has also happened to the other areas of the profession which has necessitated the change of approach and tact in delivering professional accountancy engagements\, to align with rapid developments in technology\, geopolitical risks and stringent regulations. \nIn this dynamic environment\, audit practitioners\, tax professionals\, management consultants\, and accounting practitioners must remain agile and well-informed to maintain professional competence and deliver value to clients and stakeholders. This makes it imperative for practitioners to continually update their knowledge and skills in key emerging areas such as sustainability reporting and assurance\, artificial intelligence (AI)\, blockchain technology\, and Anti-Money Laundering Policies. \nIn Kenya\, we have witnessed growing pressure on the audit profession to meet the heightened expectations of regulators\, boards\, and the investing public following reported major frauds affecting the public such as KUSCCO and OAG reports on county expenditure. Practitioners consequently must shift towards risk-based auditing and value-driven assurance\, demanding rigorous application of the International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Furthermore\, practitioners are today expected to strengthen their forensic capabilities\, leveraging data analytics and applying enhanced professional skepticism to detect anomalies and respond to fraud risks early. Practitioners are also faced with challenges revolving around compliance with regulations such as KRA\, SASRA\, RBA and AML. \nAs practitioners face expanding roles and increased public scrutiny\, soft skills such as communication\, leadership\, ethical decision-making\, and client management are no longer optional; they are critical enablers of success. This forum is therefore designed not only to advance technical mastery but also to empower audit professionals to lead with confidence\, integrity\, and agility in today’s complex assurance landscape. \nIt is against this background that the Institute has organized a three-day forum to discuss these critical developments which affect the practitioners in the different categories of practice\, and the accountancy profession at large and seek to address the rising concerns of work quality while ensuring that efficiency in undertaking engagements is maintained.  The Annual Practitioners Convention aims to provide a platform for knowledge sharing\, professional development\, and networking among Practitioners. The convention will focus on equipping practitioners with the latest insights and practical tools to enhance their service delivery in an increasingly complex business environment. The following topics will guide the discussions in the Convention: \nTOPICS \n\nGlobal trends in utilization of technology within the accountancy practice\nFuture Fit Accountants: Roles for the next decade\nState of the accountancy profession in Africa- Trends for accountants in practice within various jurisdictions\nShifting landscape for practicing accountants: Utilization of technology for competitive advantage– AI\, Blockchain\, Audit Software\nOverview of the Unique Document Identification Number (UDIN)- Milestones and Opportunities\nAnti-Money Laundering and the Expanding Role of Auditors:\n\n\nAML Compliance by practitioners.\nAML frameworks and audit procedures for detecting red flags.\nEvaluating compliance with reporting obligations under AML laws.\nAuditor’s responsibilities in relation to reporting suspicious transactions.\n\n\nImplementation of firm and engagement level quality considerations – an in-depth assessment of the ISQM 1 and 2 requirements; ISA 220\nAudit approach and evaluation of audit considerations in line with changing standards- A focus on ISA 315 and ISA 500\nOverview of the taxation landscape and changing laws and the implications to practitioners\nOverview of the developments within the standard setting environment – international financial reporting standards\nOverview of the revised IFRS for SMEs\nAdvantages and approaches of adopting ISA for Less Complex Entities for Small & Medium Practices (SMPs) in Kenya\nGearing up for Sustainability Assurance for Practitioners In Kenya- Key Requirements and Way Forward\nSetting up of a firm and submitting winning bids- Positioning practitioners for success through development of responsive proposals\nKey findings of the Audit Quality Reviews – Major concerns and practical responses to the issues.\nFirm records management best practice guidelines and effective compliance to standards on reporting\nMental health for accounting practitioners during busy seasons\nSuccession planning for SMPs\nOverview of services rendered under the four categories of licenses and the practitioner’s tool kit;\n\n\nOverview of tools and methodologies from IFAC & PAFA \nChallenges and Opportunities for Small and Medium Practices – SMPs\n\nCONTINUOUS PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT UNITS (CPD UNITS): \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 20 CPD Units upon successfully attending each of the Conference sessions. \nTARGET AUDIENCE: \nPrivate and Public Audit Practitioners\, Public Sector Accountants\, Chief Finance Officers\, Finance Directors and Managers\, Tax Experts\, Transaction Advisors\, Engagement Partners and Key Audit staff\, Banking\, Extractive and SMEs sector accountants\, Internal Auditors\, Tax Practitioners\, Professionals working in County Governments and private sectors\, Academia\, employees of the NPO Sector. \nFINANCIAL COMMITMENT: \n\n\n\nCategory\nCharges Physical \nVirtual \n\n\nAssociate Members\nKes 40\,000 per Delegate\nKes. 15\,000\n\n\nFull Members\nKes. 40\,000 per Delegate\nKes. 15\,000\n\n\nNon-Member\nKes. 40\,000 per Delegate\nKes. 15\,000\n\n\n\n\nCharges will cater for daytime meals\, conference giveaways\, learning materials\, and certificates of attendance. \n\n     2.     Delegates are advised to make own travel and accommodation arrangements \nONLINE BOOKING: \nRegistration: Delegates are reminded to note that online booking for the seminar is mandatory on https://www.icpak.com/event-registration/Online Booking .
