THE 31ST EXECUTIVE SEMINAR
2025-12-01 09:00 - 2025-12-05 15:30 | Hilton Istanbul Bosphorus, Turkey
THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
THE 31st EXECUTIVE SEMINAR
Date: 1st – 5th December 2025
Venue: Hilton Istanbul Bosphorus, Turkey
Theme: Adaptive Leadership Voyage for Organizational Success
Time: 09.00am-03.30pm
OVERVIEW
Executive leadership is critical for organizational success, as it sets the vision, aligns resources, and drives execution. Effective leaders combine strategic thinking, emotional intelligence, and operational excellence to navigate challenges and inspire teams. Effective executive leadership is the cornerstone of organizational success, serving as the driving force behind a company’s vision, strategy, and culture. Leaders at this level are responsible for setting a clear direction, aligning resources, and inspiring teams to achieve shared goals. By articulating a compelling vision, executives provide a roadmap that guides decision-making and fosters unity across departments. This vision must be adaptable, reflecting market shifts and internal capabilities, while remaining rooted in the organization’s core values. Strong leaders not only define this path but also communicate it consistently, ensuring every stakeholder understands their role in the broader mission.
Strategic decision-making is another critical component of executive leadership. Executives must balance short-term operational needs with long-term growth objectives, often under intense pressure and uncertainty. This requires a deep understanding of the industry, data-driven insights, and the ability to anticipate trends. Successful leaders leverage diverse perspectives, encouraging input from their teams while maintaining decisiveness. They also prioritize resource allocation, ensuring investments align with strategic goals. By fostering a culture of accountability, executives ensure that decisions translate into measurable outcomes, driving sustainable growth.
Emotional intelligence is equally vital for executive leaders. The ability to empathize, build trust, and navigate complex interpersonal dynamics strengthens relationships with employees, stakeholders, and partners. Leaders who demonstrate self-awareness and adaptability can inspire loyalty and motivate teams through challenges. This is particularly important in times of crisis, where calm, transparent communication can stabilize an organization and maintain morale. By modelling resilience and integrity, executives cultivate a workplace culture that values collaboration and innovation, which are essential for long-term success.
Moreover, executive leadership involves empowering others to lead. Rather than centralizing authority, effective executives delegate responsibly, fostering a sense of ownership among team members. They invest in talent development, ensuring employees have the skills and opportunities to grow. This not only builds a strong leadership pipeline but also enhances organizational agility, as empowered teams are better equipped to respond to change. By recognizing and rewarding contributions, leaders create an environment where individuals feel valued, driving engagement and productivity.
Adaptability and a commitment to continuous learning distinguish exceptional executive leaders. In a rapidly evolving global landscape, leaders must stay informed about technological advancements, regulatory changes, and societal expectations. They must also be willing to challenge their own assumptions, seeking feedback and embracing innovation. By fostering a culture of learning and experimentation, executives position their organizations to navigate disruptions and seize new opportunities. Ultimately, executive leadership is about balancing vision, execution, and empathy to create a resilient, forward-thinking organization poised for enduring success.
Considering this, ICPAK will hold a one-week Executive Seminar in Istanbul Turkey, themed Adaptive Leadership Voyage for Organizational Success, with an aim of bringing together senior corporate and public sector executives and upcoming leaders for a forthright discussion on matters touching on effective executive leadership. The seminar discussions will focus on:

THE INTERNAL AUDIT, RISK, AND FORENSIC CONFERENCE 2025
2025-12-01 09:00 - 2025-12-05 15:30 | Pride Inn Paradise Beach Hotel,, Mombasa, Kenya
INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
THE INTERNAL AUDIT, RISK, AND FORENSIC CONFERENCE 2025
Theme: Firming Integrity and accountability through risk intelligence and forensic insights
Date: 1st – 5th December 2025
Venue: Pride Inn Paradise Beach Resort, Mombasa
Time: 09.00am–03.30pm
OVERVIEW
It’s often unnoticed how much of our daily lives are shaped by systems of review, accountability, and control from managing personal budgets to planning and adjusting routines based on observed outcomes. Similarly, in the world of institutions and businesses, oversight and risk awareness determine the strength of internal systems, the accuracy of financial reporting, and the trustworthiness of leadership. Yet, despite advanced governance frameworks and automated processes, high-profile cases like the collapse of Wirecard AG, the fraud allegations at Steinhoff International, or regional procurement scandals across public institutions remind us how internal control weaknesses, poor ethical tone, and ignored red flags can unravel entire enterprises.
Organizations, like individuals, face a daily balancing act assessing uncertainties, evaluating exposures, and determining safeguards for both short and long-term objectives. In today’s dynamic economic and regulatory environment, internal risks are no longer confined to operational inefficiencies or compliance lapses. They extend into deeper layers of organizational integrity, ranging from undetected fraud, cyber vulnerabilities, poor governance practices, and weak forensic frameworks that leave enterprises exposed to reputational and financial collapse.
These failures reveal a recurring pattern: internal risks often go unchecked not because controls are absent, but because they are outdated, poorly implemented, or compromised from within. Internal risks arise when there is a disconnect between strategy, the controlling environment, and ethical execution. From improper segregation of duties and override of controls to insider threats and data manipulation, these risks manifest subtly and often grow undetected. Forensic interventions—driven by data analytics, digital evidence gathering, whistleblower reports, and structured fraud investigations—are now central to uncovering the truth behind financial inconsistencies and misconduct.
The role of internal controls is no longer confined to compliance; they now form a strategic layer of protection against financial misstatement, reputational damage, and legal exposure. Through risk assessments, fraud detection mechanisms, whistleblower systems, data audit trails, and governance ethics, professionals across industries can build more secure, transparent environments. Whether tackling procurement irregularities, AML risks, cyber manipulation, or accountability lapses in public service delivery, a collaborative and analytical approach is key.
This conference seeks to address the evolving nature of internal risks through the lens of forensic practice. It will explore how internal audit, compliance functions, governance structures, and forensic accountants can work collaboratively to detect, investigate, and mitigate threats that compromise financial and operational health. Drawing from real-life case studies, legal insights, and technology-led detection methods, this forum offers a platform to reimagine organizational resilience in the face of growing risk exposure.
Join ICPAK, a multi-sectoral engagement addressing internal risks and forensic strategies that support long-term credibility, trust, and operational strength.

International Non-Profit Accounting Standard (INPAS)
2025-12-02 08:00 - 2026-02-28 11:00 | Virtual Delivery
THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
International Non-Profit Accounting Standard (INPAS)
Theme: INPAS and the Future of Non-Profit Reporting: Enhancing Trust, Accountability & Impact Transparency
Date:2nd December 2025
Time: 8:00 am to 11:00 am
Delivery Mode: Virtual
Overview
The International Non-Profit Accounting Standard (INPAS) represents one of the most significant modern developments in global financial reporting for the not-for-profit sector. As NPOs continue to play critical roles in advancing social, economic and human-development agendas, the need for consistent, comparable, transparent and decision-useful reporting has become more urgent. INPAS is intended to provide a globally coherent framework that enables non-profits to communicate performance, stewardship, accountability and impact using standardized accounting and disclosure principles. Its introduction seeks to resolve long-standing inconsistencies, especially where NPOs rely on improvised internal policies or apply for-profit standards that do not appropriately reflect mission-centric activities, donor restrictions, program delivery dynamics and resource deployment structures.
INPAS is not only a harmonization exercise; it provides clarity in key reporting areas such as recognition of resource inflows, the accounting treatment of donor-imposed conditions, attribution of expenditure to program portfolios, measurement of performance, narrative reporting and fund accountability. Unlike general-purpose accounting standards that were not written for the non-profit domain, INPAS responds directly to unique sector characteristics such as restricted funding, grant commitments, volunteer contributions, social-value outcomes and multi-stakeholder assurance needs. Non-profit reporting is therefore expected to transition away from inconsistent classification practices, unverifiable impact statements and fragmented accounting treatments that currently limit comparability and weaken sector confidence.
Global conversations around impact measurement, trust restoration, funding transparency, donor confidence and public accountability continue to intensify. Development partners, auditors, regulators, philanthropies and funding institutions are increasingly demanding standard-consistent reporting that demonstrates responsible resource use, clear alignment between programs and expenditure, and enhanced traceability of outcomes. INPAS responds to this shift by aligning reporting with global accountability expectations, improving comparability, elevating the quality of disclosures and strengthening intelligence for resource allocation decisions.
With rising societal expectations, governance reforms, anti-corruption agendas and ESG-linked donor priorities, non-profit reporting can no longer be confined to traditional financial statements. The sector’s trust proposition depends on visibility into how funds translate into services and how actions generate real change. INPAS will therefore influence how NPOs record, classify, measure, present and narrate the way value is created and delivered. This transition, from narrow financial reporting to integrated program-performance reporting, is highly strategic: reporting becomes a driver of confidence, not merely a compliance exercise.
It is in response to this evolving context, and ahead of INPAS implementation, that the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) is convening this training to equip preparers, reviewers and professionals with practical skills, contextual understanding and transition readiness, so that by the time formal adoption arrives, the sector will be informed, empowered and aligned for confident implementation.
Topics to be covered include:

Purpose, structure and foundations of INPAS
Financial reporting for NPOs under a principles-based global model
Classification, recognition and presentation of NPO-specific transactions
Accounting for restricted funds, grants, donations and conditional inflows
Program expenditure mapping, outcome reporting and value attribution
Narrative reporting and performance accountability frameworks
Transition considerations, practical challenges and implementation pathways
Technology enablement and digitization for INPAS-aligned reporting

Ethics for professional accountants Webinar (Mandatory Training) cohort 3
2025-12-03 16:00 - 2026-02-28 18:00 | Virtual Delivery
INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
Ethics for professional accountants Webinar – cohort 3
Date: 3rd December 2025
Time: 04.00pm-06.00pm
Delivery Mode: Virtual
(This is one of the mandatory trainings for practicing certificate consideration)
Overview
Ethics continues to be a foundational pillar of the accounting profession, especially as practitioners face increasing client pressures, tightening regulatory expectations and rapid technological changes that introduce new forms of ethical risk. Recent updates to the IESBA Code, ongoing enforcement actions globally and the growing ethical considerations in areas such as sustainability reporting and technology use demonstrate why continuous ethics renewal is essential. For practitioners in Kenya, compliance with the International Code of Ethics including the International Independence Standards is not only a professional obligation but also a regulatory requirement embedded in the Accountants Act and ICPAK’s Quality Assurance Review framework.
This webinar will provide a practical and experience-driven understanding of the Code, enabling practitioners to interpret and apply its requirements in real-world scenarios. Participants will explore the fundamental principles of integrity, objectivity, professional competence and due care, confidentiality and professional behaviour, and consider how these principles translate into daily decision-making within firms. A central focus will be the conceptual framework approach, which guides practitioners in identifying threats to compliance, evaluating their significance and implementing appropriate safeguards. The session will emphasize the most common threats such as self-interest, self-review, advocacy, familiarity and intimidation and will demonstrate how proper documentation supports ethical judgments in practice.
Independence in assurance engagements will be another major theme, especially given its prominence in Quality Assurance Review findings. The discussions will address fee dependency, long association, relationships involving network firms and distinctions between independence requirements for audit and other assurance engagements. To anchor these principles, the webinar will incorporate realistic ethical dilemmas drawn from the experiences of small and medium practices, touching on issues such as client pressure, conflicts of interest, fee negotiations, scope creep and ethical leadership challenges within firms.
Emerging issues will also form part of the discourse, particularly the ethical implications of technology and artificial intelligence, where concerns about confidentiality, data protection, objectivity and professional behaviour continue to grow. Participants will reflect on the ethical dimensions of sustainability reporting and assurance under IFRS S1, IFRS S2 and ISSA 5000, as well as anti-money laundering obligations and cybersecurity considerations tied to digital records. The session will conclude with practical guidance on building and sustaining an ethical culture in firms, including tone at the top, staff sensitization, internal escalation mechanisms and the integration of ethical expectations into firm methodologies and policies.
By the end of the webinar, practitioners are expected to be better equipped to apply the IESBA Code confidently, recognize and respond to high-risk ethical situations and document their rationale in line with regulatory expectations. The aim is to support practitioners in reducing exposure to ethical and independence breaches while fostering a culture of integrity, accountability and sound professional judgment across the profession.
Topics to be covered will include:
• Overview of the IESBA Code
• The Conceptual Framework
• Independence in Assurance Engagements
• Managing Ethical Dilemmas in Practice
• Emerging Ethics Issues
• Strengthening the Ethical Culture of Firms

Overview
Tax revenue is the main source of revenue for financing government programs and operations in any jurisdiction. In Kenya, recent tax measures instituted by the Kenya kwanza administration have elicited robust debates among citizens sometimes leading to public protest like the one witnessed in June 2024. Opponents of the recent tax laws have pointed out that the increased taxes have led to the relocation of many multinational firms to neighbouring countries citing increased cost of doing business arising from high levels of taxation in Kenya.
It therefore goes without saying that taxation impacts significantly on the operating environment of businesses in any jurisdiction. In Kenya, the various tax measures that have been put in place and increased complexities arising from compliance to the new tax laws and regulation is a major challenge to many taxpayers. This has often led to the closure of several local businesses and has adversely affected the continuity of a significant number of well-established firms. Because of this, some firms have been forced to hire or establish tax departments to ensure tax compliance. Non-compliance to tax laws not only attracts costly tax penalties and fines but also limits business opportunities with public sector entities where tax compliance certificate is one of the key prerequisites.
It is against this background that the Institute has organized a two-day physical training designed to strengthen the practical knowledge and application of taxation laws for ICPAK members and relevant public finance professionals. It will provide deep insights into key tax laws while highlighting recent tax measures and developments and emerging tax issues relevant to Kenyan firms and persons.

Meetings Etiquette and Effective Delegation Webinar
Date: 9th December 2025
Time: 04.00pm-06.00pm
Delivery Mode: Virtual
Overview
In modern workplaces, the ability to lead structured, respectful, and results-oriented meetings, coupled with effective delegation skills is critical to achieving organizational efficiency. Meetings serve as essential platforms for communication, collaboration, and strategic alignment. However, poorly managed meetings often lead to wasted time, unclear outcomes, and reduced team morale. By observing proper meeting etiquette, professionals can ensure that meetings are purposeful, inclusive, and productive.
Meeting etiquette includes practices such as setting clear agendas, starting and ending on time, active listening, minimizing interruptions, respectful dialogue, and following through on action items. These standards create an environment where participants feel valued, discussions stay focused, and decisions are made efficiently. In virtual or hybrid settings, etiquette becomes even more important to maintain professionalism and engagement.
Complementing meeting etiquette is the ability to delegate tasks effectively, a key leadership function that empowers teams and drives productivity. Effective delegation involves identifying suitable tasks to assign, choosing the right individuals based on competencies, communicating expectations clearly, and providing support and feedback. It enables leaders to focus on strategic priorities, while building capacity and accountability within their teams.
The Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) invites you to this virtual webinar as it aims to enhance participants’ professional communication, organizational leadership, and team management capabilities. This training will provide practical insights and tools to improve how meetings are conducted and how responsibilities are shared for optimal performance. Participants will leave equipped to foster collaboration, streamline workflows, and contribute to a culture of trust and effectiveness.

Taxation Workshop Nyanza Branch (Mandatory Training)

THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA

Taxation Workshop (Nyanza Branch) Mandatory Training
Theme: Leveraging Tax Incentives for Economic Growth and Investment
Date: 10th – 11th December 2025
Time: 09.00am -3.30pm
Venue: Acacia Premier Hotel, Kisumu
(This is one of the mandatory training courses for Practicing Certificate consideration)
Overview
Kenya’s tax landscape is undergoing continuous transformation, influenced by both international developments and local policy shifts, particularly within the growing digital economy. The enactment of the Tax Procedures Act and subsequent tax reforms have introduced more rigorous compliance obligations, stiffer penalties, and automation aimed at boosting accountability and transparency within the tax system. While these efforts enhance the overall efficiency of tax administration, they also present added challenges for businesses, increasing operational costs and complicating compliance. To adapt effectively, taxpayers must gain a solid understanding of core tax areas such as corporate tax, VAT, PAYE, and withholding tax, as well as the implications of digital service taxation. Practical guidance and case studies can help navigate this complex environment and foster strategic compliance.
With growing regulatory scrutiny, businesses must elevate tax compliance as a strategic priority by adopting effective tax risk management practices. Establishing internal tax functions has become essential for identifying potential exposures and avoiding disruptions such as audits, penalties, and agency notices. Programs like tax amnesties and voluntary disclosures offer a pathway for taxpayers to rectify past non-compliance without incurring excessive penalties. Additionally, the increasing application of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) mechanisms has proven effective in resolving tax disputes more amicably and efficiently, easing the litigation burden and promoting better relationships between taxpayers and authorities.
Recent fiscal policies introduced by the Kenya Kwanza administration have sparked intense public discourse, with some measures triggering widespread discontent, including protests like those seen in June 2024. A major concern among stakeholders is the rising cost of doing business, which has prompted some multinational companies to shift operations to neighboring countries with more favorable tax regimes. These developments underscore the profound impact taxation has on business sustainability, investment decisions, and economic competitiveness. Navigating this volatile environment requires businesses to stay informed and agile in responding to new regulations and shifting tax obligations.
In response to the changing tax terrain and its implications for both local and multinational firms, the Institute has organized a two-day, in-person workshop targeting ICPAK members and public finance professionals. This training aims to enhance participants’ technical knowledge and practical application of tax laws, offering in-depth analysis of recent legislative updates, tax incentives, and compliance strategies.Through this forum, professionals will be better equipped to manage tax risks, remain compliant, and support their organizations in navigating Kenya’s increasingly complex tax regime. To guide the discussion during the Seminar, the following topics of discussion will form the focus of this very important workshop:

Tax Risk Management, Planning, and the Role of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) – Strategies for managing tax risks, importance of internal tax functions, and the increasing relevance of ADR in resolving tax disputes efficiently.

IFRS 11 – Joint Arrangements Webinar 2025
Date: 16th December 2025
Time: 04.00pm-06.00pm
Delivery Mode: Virtual
Overview
IFRS 11 establishes principles for financial reporting by parties to a joint arrangement. It defines how entities should account for their interest in arrangements where two or more parties jointly control the arrangement. Joint control is defined as the contractually agreed sharing of control. A binding contractual arrangement that results in two or more of parties having joint control over the investee’s relevant activities gives rise to a joint arrangement, and this is subsequently classified into one of two classifications, being either: – A joint operation, or– A joint venture. IFRS 11 classifies joint arrangements into two types: joint operations and joint ventures.
A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the joint controlling parties (‘joint operators’) have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities relating to the arrangement.
A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby joint controlling parties (joint venturers’) have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.
During this training we will seek to understand the standard and the requirements

Date: 17th – 18th December 2025
Time: 9.00am-3.30pm
Delivery Mode: Virtual
(This is one of the mandatory trainings for Practicing Certificate consideration)
Overview
The global financial reporting landscape continues to rapidly change with the ongoing drive for greater regulatory scrutiny, technological transformation and calls for transparent and comparable information. The International Financial Reporting Standards remain at the core of promoting high-quality financial reporting, and professionals must remain updated on new standards, amendments and challenges in implementation. The virtual symposium is therefore structured to attain current comprehensions of IFRS requirements that would ensure that participants maintain competence in an environment in which accuracy and compliance are not open to negotiation.
IFRS has been subject to significant updates lately, including new guidance on financial instruments, revenue, leases, sustainability disclosures and insurance contracts. In fact, the updated standards have far-reaching implications on recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure. The symposium will provide practical insights into how to navigate these complex standards, emerging issues associated with fair value measurement, impairment assessments and financial risk disclosures, along with integration of sustainability information under IFRS S1 & S2.
The increasing demands of the profession go hand in hand with expectations for professional judgment to be exercised and consistency to be maintained in financial reporting, amidst the ever-evolving business models and sophisticated transactions. The symposium will emphasize challenges encountered when applying principles-based standards so that participants can feel confident about interpreting the requirements of IFRS in different industries and financial environments. Focus will be on practical applications, case studies, and common pitfalls observed in practice.
Bringing technical experts and practitioners together in this virtual symposium provides an avenue for deepening understanding, discussing experiences regarding implementation and enhancing the capacity of finance and accounting professionals. It reiterates the commitment to high-quality reporting and equips participants with practical tools that will help enhance compliance with standards, improve stakeholder communication and maintain the integrity of financial information, as part of global best practices.
