OVERVIEW
Taxation is a cornerstone of organizational governance, regulatory compliance, and strategic decision-making, influencing virtually every facet of an organization’s operations. Beyond its primary function of generating revenue for governments, taxation shapes corporate strategy, guides financial planning, and informs sustainability initiatives. For modern organizations, effective tax management is not merely a compliance exercise but a critical element of strategic foresight. The current tax environment is highly dynamic, with frequent legislative amendments, increasingly sophisticated enforcement by tax authorities, the rise of digital tax administration, and the influence of international tax reforms creating both opportunities and risks. Professionals tasked with navigating these dynamics—be they accountants, finance managers, tax practitioners, or auditors—must possess an in-depth understanding of domestic and international tax regimes, proactive risk management techniques, and practical strategies to optimize tax positions while maintaining compliance.
The modern tax landscape in Kenya and across the globe presents multifaceted challenges that require comprehensive knowledge and careful navigation. Organizations face complex obligations such as corporate income tax, VAT, excise duties, transfer pricing rules, digital service taxes, and emerging environmental or ESG-linked tax initiatives. Simultaneously, compliance demands adherence to ethical standards, internal governance protocols, and transparent reporting practices. Mismanagement of tax obligations can result not only in financial penalties and legal sanctions but also in reputational damage that undermines stakeholder trust. The interconnected nature of taxation with corporate governance and operational decisions means that the roles of tax professionals extend far beyond traditional bookkeeping and filing. They are called upon to anticipate regulatory changes, interpret nuanced legislative provisions, advise management on strategic tax matters, and ensure that organizational tax practices align with broader business objectives and governance frameworks.
At the same time, taxation is increasingly recognized as a strategic instrument for organizational growth and sustainability. Thoughtful tax planning, aligned with both corporate strategy and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) objectives, enables organizations to optimize resources, leverage incentives, and mitigate financial and operational risks. Tax professionals are expected to operate as strategic advisors, moving beyond mere compliance reporting to interpret legislation, provide guidance on cross-border and digital transactions, and proactively engage with regulators to manage risk and unlock opportunities. Mastering these competencies requires a blend of technical expertise, analytical acumen, ethical judgment, and strategic insight. Professionals must be capable of assessing complex tax scenarios, modeling potential outcomes, and integrating tax considerations into broader corporate decision-making.
The Taxation Masterclass is designed to respond to these multifarious demands by equipping participants with practical, actionable skills and a deep understanding of the evolving tax environment. Through a structured curriculum combining technical instruction, interactive discussions, practical exercises, and real-world case studies, participants will engage with core topics such as corporate tax planning, VAT and indirect tax compliance, personal taxation, international taxation, transfer pricing, tax audits, dispute resolution, and emerging trends in digital and ESG-linked taxes. The program emphasizes the integration of technology in tax administration, highlighting how digital tools—such as e-filing systems, data analytics platforms, and automated compliance solutions—can enhance efficiency, accuracy, and strategic insight in tax management. By actively engaging with contemporary tax issues, delegates will develop the confidence and expertise needed to anticipate challenges and implement best practices in their organizations.
Leadership in taxation demands not only technical proficiency but also the ability to influence corporate decision-making and contribute meaningfully to organizational strategy. This Masterclass positions accountants and tax professionals as strategic partners who can align tax management with corporate objectives, strengthen compliance, and add tangible value to their organizations. Participants will learn to design and implement tax strategies that enhance long-term organizational performance, mitigate risks, and promote ethical, transparent, and accountable governance. By the end of the five-day program, delegates will be equipped to navigate complex tax matters, implement strategic tax solutions, effectively engage with regulators, and provide guidance that supports sustainable growth, innovation, and value creation.
In response to the evolving taxation landscape and the increasing strategic role of tax professionals, ICPAK has organized this Masterclass to provide a robust platform for professional development, peer exchange, and practical learning. This program creates an avenue for participants to engage with experts, explore real-world scenarios, and apply best practices that are aligned with both domestic and international standards. By the conclusion of the training, participants will possess the skills, insights, and strategic perspective necessary to manage complex tax environments, optimize organizational tax outcomes, ensure regulatory compliance, and strengthen public trust through ethical and effective tax practice.

Venue: Conrad Centennial, Singapore
OVERVIEW
In today’s dynamic and interconnected business environment, leaders face the challenge of navigating rapidly evolving technologies, shifting market conditions and increasing societal expectations. Strategic agility is essential for anticipating change and responding effectively, enabling executives to guide their organizations with clarity and foresight. Alongside this, decision-making in the age of AI requires a delicate balance between harnessing technological advancements and maintaining ethical judgment, ensuring that innovation strengthens organizational performance and integrity.
Resilience has become a defining characteristic of effective leadership. Leaders who foster organizational resilience are equipped to manage disruptions, cyber risks and unforeseen challenges while sustaining high-performing teams. Creating cultures grounded in trust, inclusion, and psychological safety allows creativity and innovation to flourish. Equally, embedding sustainability into strategy and operations is critical, as leaders are increasingly responsible for integrating ESG principles into decision-making and aligning long-term value creation with broader societal impact.
Leadership today also demands an appreciation of diversity across generations and perspectives. Executives who can manage multigenerational teams effectively foster collaboration, engagement and innovation. Responsible adoption of AI and robust data governance reinforce organizational accountability and stakeholder trust. Complementing these external responsibilities, leaders must maintain personal financial wellness and mental resilience, recognizing that sustainable performance depends on both professional and personal equilibrium.
Modern leadership in the Era of Intelligent Transformation blends creativity, ethical stewardship, and strategic foresight. Driving innovation while maintaining resilience, leveraging technology responsibly, cultivating high-performing inclusive cultures, and embedding sustainability into decision-making are all critical to navigating the complexities of contemporary organizations. In light of this, ICPAK will hold a one-week Leadership Summit in Singapore themed “Executive Leadership in the Era of Intelligent Transformation,” bringing together senior corporate and public sector executives and emerging leaders for in-depth discussions on strategies, mindsets, and practices essential for leading effectively in today’s dynamic and technology-driven environment.

THE MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING AND STRATEGY CONFERENCE 2026
2026-03-09 09:00 - 2026-03-13 15:30 | Travellers Beach Hotel & Club, Mombasa, Mombasa, Kenya
INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
THE MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING AND STRATEGY CONFERENCE
Date: 9th – 13th March 2026
Time: 09.00am-03.30pm
Venue: Travellers Beach Hotel and Club, Mombasa
Theme: Strategic Management Accounting for Value Creation, Performance Excellence & Sustainable Growth
OVERVIEW
Management accounting has transformed significantly from its traditional role of cost tracking and financial control to a strategic function that supports organizational value creation, performance excellence, and long-term sustainability. In an increasingly volatile business environment, management accountants are now required to provide forward-looking insights, integrate financial intelligence with strategic planning, and enhance decision-making through robust analytical tools. This shift reflects the growing recognition of management accounting as a cornerstone of competitive advantage and institutional resilience.
A strong management accounting framework brings together financial analysis, risk management, budgeting, forecasting, and performance monitoring into a cohesive system that drives strategic clarity. Through techniques such as scenario analysis, cost optimization, and strategic performance measurement, management accountants help organizations align strategic objectives with daily operations. These functions empower leaders to anticipate emerging risks, deploy resources efficiently, and strengthen operational discipline in a way that enhances organizational agility and sustainability.
Organizations are also experiencing heightened expectations around accountability, performance, and resource stewardship. Management accounting plays an indispensable role in supporting these demands by offering structured tools such as variance analysis, performance reviews, and value-for-money assessments. These tools enable institutions to detect inefficiencies, measure progress against strategic goals, and ensure that financial decisions are aligned with long-term priorities. In environments where public trust, governance, and cost efficiency are critical, the role of management accountants becomes even more central.
Digital transformation is reshaping management accounting by introducing advanced tools such as automation, predictive analytics, digital dashboards, and integrated reporting systems. These technologies enable real-time monitoring of performance, more accurate forecasting, and deeper insights into organizational dynamics. As organizations adopt these innovations, management accountants are increasingly stepping into strategic leadership roles—driving transformation, facilitating data-driven decisions, and integrating financial and non-financial metrics to create a holistic performance landscape.
It is in response to these evolving demands that the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) has organized the Management Accounting & Strategy Conference. This program brings together accountants, finance managers, strategy professionals, auditors, public-sector leaders, and governance practitioners to explore modern tools, strategic frameworks, and best practices in management accounting. Through expert-led sessions, case studies, and interactive discussions, delegates will gain practical skills to strengthen value creation, improve decision-making, support strategy execution, and enhance organizational performance.

INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
Filing Of Tax Returns- Practical Course
Date: 12th March 2026
Time: 4pm to 6pm
Mode of Delivery: Virtual
Overview
This is a practical course intended to provide finance professionals, accountants, auditors, and business owners with hands-on skills that can enable them to competently navigate through Kenya’s evolving tax compliance environment. As the tax authorities increasingly emphasize accuracy, transparency, and timeliness of submission of returns, organizations and individuals have to fortify their understanding of statutory requirements, apart from the practical processes involved in completing various tax returns. This course has been designed to bridge the gap between theoretical tax knowledge and day-to-day realities associated with filing returns under multiple tax categories.
This will give participants the learning experience that is practical and interactive, similar to a real-life compliance procedure. Through demonstrations, system walkthroughs, and guided exercises, delegates will walk away with confidence in carrying out tasks of tax filing on platforms such as iTax, preparation of supporting documentation, and interpretation of key tax laws that inform filings. The course will also bring into focus common errors, audit triggers, and compliance risks that organizations should proactively look out for to avoid penalties, interest, and reputational exposure.
This course targets professional practitioners in finance, accounting, auditing, tax advisory, compliance, and business operations. It will also be of practical use to entrepreneurs and owners of SMEs who want to meet their tax obligations in an efficient and consistent manner. Delivered over two days, this course simplifies concepts into a structured approach that enables the participants to apply the learned concepts immediately within their work environments. The session also provides ample time for sharing knowledge, learning from each other, and seeking clarification on emerging issues in tax administration.
By the end of the programme, participants will have developed their competence in preparing and filing various tax returns, reconciling records, interpreting relevant legislation, and aligning their processes with best practice. The practical focus of the training will ensure that delegates leave with real skills that enhance not only their individual capability but also that of the organization in terms of tax compliance.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE 2026
2026-03-16 09:00 - 2026-03-20 15:30 | Sarova Whitesands Beach Resort and Spa, Mombasa, Kenya
INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE & LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE
Theme: Integrating Principles of Corporate Governance into The Values System of Leaders in Kenya
Date: 16th to 20th March 2026
Time: 09.00am-03.30pm
Venue: Sarova Whitesands Beach Hotel & Spa Mombasa
INTRODUCTION
Corporate governance is a system of rules, policies, and practices that dictate how a company’s board of directors manages and oversees the operations of a company. Corporate governance includes principles of transparency, accountability, and security. Poor corporate governance, at best, leads to a company failing to achieve its stated goals, and, at worst, can lead to the collapse of the company and significant financial losses for shareholders.
Perhaps one of the most important principles of corporate governance is the recognition of shareholders. The recognition is two-fold. First, there is the basic recognition of the importance of shareholders to any company – people who buy the company’s stock fund its operations. Equity is one of the major sources of funding for businesses. Second, from the basic recognition of shareholder importance follows the principle of responsibility to shareholders. The policy of allowing shareholders to elect a board of directors is critical. This means that shareholders, effectively, have a direct say in how a company is run.
Shareholder interest is a major part of corporate governance. Shareholders may reach out to the members of the community who don’t necessarily hold an interest in the company but who can nonetheless benefit from its goods or services. Reaching out to the members of the community encourages lines of communication that promote company transparency. It means that all members of the community – those who are directly or indirectly affected by the company – and members of the press get a clear sense of the company’s goals, tactics, and how it is doing in general. Transparency means that anyone, whether inside or outside the company, can choose to review and verify the company’s actions. This fosters trust and is likely to encourage more individuals to patronize the company and possibly become shareholders as well.
An increasingly important aspect of corporate governance is security. Shareholders and customers/clients need to feel confident that their personal information is not being leaked or accessed by unauthorized users. It’s equally important to ensure that the company’s proprietary processes and trade secrets are secure. A data breach is not just very expensive. It also weakens public trust in the company, which can have a drastically negative effect on its stock price. Losing investor trust means losing access to capital that is necessary for corporate growth. Everyone in a company, from entry-level staffers to members of the board, needs to be well-versed in corporate security procedures such as passwords and authentication methods.
Leadership, both as a research area and as a practical skill, encompasses the ability of an individual, group or organization to lead, influence or guide other individuals, teams, or entire organizations. Throughout history, great leaders have emerged with leadership styles in providing direction, implementing plans and motivating people. These can be broadly grouped into 5 different categories such as Authoritarian Leadership, Participative Leadership, Delegative Leadership, Transactional Leadership and Transformational Leadership. Despite these definitions, most leaders still struggle with the meaning of each leadership style mentioned above, the difference between each leadership approach as well as the advantages and disadvantages of each style. This conference will explore each of these styles and provide an avenue for leaders to discuss on the best approach to take in leading their teams.
All leadership styles serve a purpose depending on the situation, type of organization or industry, and the personalities of the leadership and employees involved. The best approach is to become familiar with all leadership styles and understand the applications of each style. You will likely have a default style of leadership that you naturally exhibit or turn to. However, it is important that you are flexible in how you lead others. To understand when to employ each type of leadership style it is essential to develop your ability to diagnose needs, communicate effectively, and be flexible in how you make decisions and interact with others.
Leadership in business is the capacity of a company’s management to set and achieve challenging goals, take fast and decisive action when needed, outperform the competition, and inspire others to perform at their highest levels. Leadership also speaks to a more holistic approach, such as the tone of an organization or the culture that management establishes. Individuals with strong leadership skills in the business world often rise to executive positions.
Effective leadership includes exhibiting a strong character. Leaders exhibit honesty, integrity, trustworthiness, and ethics. Leaders act in line with how they speak and earn the right to be responsible for others’ success in the organization. Strong leadership involves clear communication skills. Leaders speak with and listen to staff members, respond to questions and concerns, and are empathetic. Leaders use effective communication skills for moving the company forward and achieving new levels of success.
Values refer to beliefs or ideals shared by the members of a culture about what is good or bad, desirable or undesirable. They are standards of conduct, efficiency or worth which a society endorses, maintains and even transmits to her members. Principles of Governance are normative principles that guide the state to perform its functions in a manner that promotes the general wellbeing of its people.
National Values and Principles of Governance are fundamental beliefs or ideals that guide the choices, actions and behaviour of a nation. They are critical in building national identity and national character that guides the realization of national development. In addition, National Values exert influence on the way individuals relate with one another, how communities engage one another and how citizens and government interact to promote peace, national unity and cohesion.
National Values and Principles of Governance are key in managing diversity and building national social capital that surpasses ethnic, religious, class and racial limitations. They cultivate internal social and cultural coherence which are based on national norms and interests that govern interactions focused on achieving national common good. It is because of the central role of values in organising, inspiring, transforming, and guiding Kenyans that they are enshrined in Article 10 of the Constitution. The National Values and Principles of Governance facilitate the building of bridges among communities, ethnic, religious, and racial traditions and establish constitutionalism that binds and integrates Kenyans into a unitary nation-state. They provide opportunities to individuals and groups to pursue freedoms and happiness in a diverse society and a firmly united nation.
This Conference will provide delegates with the opportunity to discuss issues and challenges as well as dwell on topical areas such as:

An overview of King IV Code of Corporate Governance
Implementation of the Mwongozo code of Corporate Governance in Kenya
Effective management of shareholder activism
Legal, Institutional Policy Frameworks and Administrative Actions for the promotion of national values and principles of governance

FINANCIAL REPORTING FOR COUNTY GOVERNMENTS AND OTHER PUBLIC-SECTOR ENTITIES 2026
2026-03-23 09:00 - 2026-03-27 15:30 | Sarova Whitesands Beach Resort & Spa Mombasa, Mombasa
INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
FINANCIAL REPORTING FOR COUNTY GOVERNMENTS & OTHER PUBLIC-SECTOR ENTITIES 2026
Date: 23rd -27th March 2026
Venue: Sarova Whitesands Beach Resort, Mombasa
Theme: Strengthening Public Sector Accountability through Enhanced Financial Reporting Practices
OVERVIEW
High-quality financial reporting remains a cornerstone of good governance, prudent resource management, and public accountability across County Governments and public-sector institutions. In a context where citizens increasingly demand transparency and evidence-based decision-making, financial reports must provide a clear, accurate, and comprehensive reflection of how public resources have been planned, allocated, and utilized. Robust reporting enhances credibility, supports better oversight, and enables institutions to demonstrate stewardship over assets, liabilities, and public funds. As governance evolves, financial reporting is no longer a routine administrative function but a strategic tool that directly influences trust, service delivery, and institutional legitimacy.
Effective financial reporting requires more than compiling figures at year-end. It is built on well-structured processes, a strong internal control environment, and adherence to established standards such as those issued by the Public Sector Accounting Standards Board (PSASB), which align with the International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS). This includes consistent application of recognition, measurement, and disclosure principles; maintenance of reliable asset registers; regular reconciliations; and preparation of budgets that clearly articulate strategic priorities. When executed properly, these standards enhance comparability across public institutions and strengthen compliance with statutory requirements under the Public Finance Management (PFM) Act and its associated regulations.
Despite advancements in public financial management reforms, County Governments and public-sector entities continue to face persistent challenges that undermine the quality of financial statements. These include incomplete asset valuation exercises, pending bills, irregular expenditure, weak documentation, limited automation, skills gaps, and inconsistencies in applying IPSAS-compliant templates. Such challenges contribute to recurring audit queries, delay in reporting, reduced fiscal discipline, and diminished public trust. Addressing these issues requires targeted interventions, capacity building, and leadership commitment to improving financial management systems and practices.
The public sector now operates in a dynamic environment shaped by evolving regulations, heightened audit expectations, technological disruption, and increased scrutiny from citizens and oversight bodies. Complex issues such as climate-related disclosures, budget execution pressures, stalled development projects, and governance risks demand robust and forward-looking reporting frameworks. County Governments must adopt modern approaches that integrate financial data with risk, performance, and service delivery information. Strengthening these linkages ensures that financial reports are not only compliant but also relevant, insightful, and aligned with national development agendas.
Furthermore, dependence on traditional manual processes exposes entities to errors, inefficiencies, and compliance challenges. Emerging digital solutions—including integrated financial management systems (such as IFMIS), digital asset registers, automated reconciliations, and analytics tools—offer opportunities to enhance accuracy, timeliness, and transparency. The adoption of these tools, supported by trained professionals and sound internal controls, enables institutions to transition from reactive financial reporting to proactive, data-driven decision-making. This transformation strengthens accountability, supports evidence-based budgeting, and ensures that public resources are managed responsibly.
In response to these developments, the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) has organized this comprehensive program to build the technical and practical competencies required for preparing high-quality financial statements in line with PSASB and reporting requirements. The training provides an in-depth exploration of reporting standards, budgeting frameworks, audit processes, internal controls, asset management, and emerging trends in public-sector reporting. Through expert-led sessions, case studies, and peer learning, participants will gain practical insights into common pitfalls, receive updated templates and tools, and develop actionable strategies to strengthen financial reporting, enhance governance, and improve service delivery within their respective institutions.

Webinar IFRS 15 - Revenue from contracts with customers
2026-03-24 16:00 - 18:00 | Virtual Delivery
THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
IFRS 15 – Revenue from contracts with customers
Date: 24th March 2026
Time: 4.00pm-6.00pm
Venue: Virtual
Overview
Before IFRS 15 came into effect, revenue recognition in Kenya was guided by a patchwork of older standards—mainly IAS 11 (Construction Contracts) and IAS 18 (Revenue)—each with differing principles and inconsistent application across industries. This created challenges in comparability and interpretation, especially for entities with complex or long-term contracts.
The introduction of IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers, effective January 2018, revolutionized revenue recognition by introducing a single, principles-based model applicable to all industries. IFRS 15 established a clear five-step framework for recognizing revenue, ensuring that financial statements reflect the amount and timing of revenue that truly represents the transfer of goods or services to customers.
For Kenyan businesses, correct application of IFRS 15 is critical in promoting trust, consistency, and transparency among investors, lenders, regulators, and clients. The standard continues to be the cornerstone for how companies—from construction and telecommunications to financial services and technology—measure and report revenue from customer contracts. As entities integrate digital business models, performance-based contracts, and subscription services, revisiting IFRS 15’s requirements remain crucial for accurate reporting and compliance.
ICPAK has organized this webinar to discuss the following key areas:

Introduction to IFRS 15
The 5-step revenue recognition model
Types of contracts and transaction prices

Complex Contract Scenarios & Multi-Element Arrangements: Recognition challenges in bundled goods, services, and performance obligations.

Types of warranties under IFRS 15
Presentation and disclosure requirements

Variable Consideration & Revenue Estimation Updates: Latest guidance on handling discounts, rebates, and contingent payments.

ISA for less complex entities webinar
2026-03-31 16:00 - 18:00 | Virtual Delivery
INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
ISA for less complex entities
Date: 31 March 2026
Time: 04.00pm-06.00pm
Venue: Virtual Delivery
Overview
Large complex organizations typically require a more in-depth application of these full ISAs given their scope of business and applicability. However, many small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and less complex entities (LCEs) often face challenges in applying full ISAs in a way that suits their unique structures and needs.
The introduction of the International Standards on Auditing (ISA) for less complex entities (LCEs) is a response to the growing recognition that smaller and less complex organizations face unique challenges in complying with full ISAs. These standards are intended to reduce the burden of compliance while maintaining the integrity and quality of audits.
This course is designed to help auditors understand and apply ISA specifically tailored for Less Complex Entities (LCEs). It aims to bridge the gap between the International Standards on Audits (ISA) and the operational realities of SMEs.
The following topics will be covered:

Introduction to ISA for Less complex entities

Background
The rationale for ISA for Less complex entities
Public interest overriding consideration

Differences between ISA for Less complex entities and existing ISAs
Core concepts of ISA for Less Complex entities

Fundamental Concepts, General Principles and Overarching Requirements
Audit Evidence and Documentation
Engagement Quality Management
Acceptance or Continuance of an Audit Engagement and Initial Audit Engagements
Planning
Risk Identification and Assessment
Responding to Assessed Risks of Material Misstatement
Concluding
Forming an Opinion and Reporting
Audits of Group Financial Statements

TARGET AUDIENCE:
This course will be useful to professionals in the Audit and accounting sector with bias on assurance professionals and specifically:

Auditors working with small and medium-sized entities (SMEs) and less complex entities (LCEs).
Audit firms seeking to enhance their audit practices for smaller clients.

Professionals involved in the development, implementation, and application of auditing standards for SMEs.

Accounting and auditing students who aim to specialize in auditing LCEs
Supervisors in external audit, internal audit and compliance
Mid-level managers looking to enhance their auditing skills

Individuals responsible for overseeing audits or teams involved in auditing

ISA 315-Risk Of Material Misstatements webinar
2026-04-07 16:00 - 18:00 | Virtual Delivery
THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
ISA 315-Risk Of Material Misstatements webinar
Date: 7th April 2026
Time: 4:00-6:00PM
Venue: Virtual
Overview
Today the audit landscape is experiencing unprecedented changes characterized by complex business models, rapid digital transformation, heightened fraud risks and growing regulatory scrutiny. Despite these changes, it is imperative to underscore the fact that the ability of an auditor to effectively identify and assess risks of material misstatement is the foundation of audit quality. At the heart of this process lies ISA 315 (Revised), the standard that governs how auditors understand entities, their environments, and related risks.
This 2-hour practical webinar is designed to provide audit practitioners with a clear, applied, and contemporary understanding of ISA 315, with emphasis on its revised requirements, enhanced risk assessment procedures, and stronger linkage between risk identification and audit responses.
The session will examine how auditors are expected to:

Develop a deep understanding of the entity and its environment
Evaluate information systems and internal controls
Identify and assess inherent and control risks
Incorporate the impact of technology, automation, and digital systems
Strengthen professional skepticism and fraud risk assessment

Particular focus will be placed on practical application, including documentation expectations, common inspection findings, and how weak risk assessment directly undermines audit quality. The webinar will also highlight regulatory and practice challenges within the Kenyan context, helping practitioners align with both international standards and local oversight expectations.
By the end of the session, participants will have enhanced confidence in applying ISA 315 effectively, strengthening audit planning, improving audit responses, and delivering higher-quality, risk-focused assurance engagements.
Target Audience
This training is not limited to accountancy only, staff from other units are highly encouraged to attend.
Continuous Professional Development Units
Members of ICPAK and those from other reciprocating professional bodies will earn 2 CPD units upon successfully attending all conference sessions.
