SUMMARY:ERM MASTER CLASS 2025 MANDATORY TRAINING
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nERM MASTER CLASS 2025 MANDATORY TRAINING\nTHEME: Driving Competitiveness and Sustainable Value Through Responsive Enterprise Risk Management\nDATE: 27th – 31st OCTOBER 2025\nVENUE: SAROVA WHITESANDS BEACH RESORT & SPA MOMBASA\nTIME: 09.00AM-03.30PM\n(This is one of the mandatory trainings for Practicing Certificate consideration)\n \nOVERVIEW \nIn today’s increasingly complex and uncertain global economic environment\, enterprises face a rapidly evolving array of risks that threaten their strategic objectives and long-term sustainability. The 2023 Global Risks Report by the World Economic Forum underscores the gravity of this reality\, identifying the cost-of-living crisis\, natural disasters and extreme weather events\, and geo-economic confrontations among the most pressing global risks in the near term. Simultaneously\, the accelerating pace of digital transformation continues to introduce new vulnerabilities such as cyber security threats and data privacy concerns. \nThese developments have heightened the need for innovative\, integrated\, and responsive approaches to risk management. Closer to home\, the Kenyan business landscape has become increasingly volatile\, with many organizations scaling down or relocating operations—resulting in job losses\, reduced tax revenues\, and weaker overall economic performance. These challenges are compounded by rapid shifts in the social\, political\, legal\, and technological environment. Navigating this turbulence calls for agile leadership and adaptive risk management strategies. More than ever\, the ability of professionals to anticipate\, identify\, assess\, and respond decisively to risks has become a critical determinant of organizational resilience\, competitiveness\, and long-term growth. \nEnterprise Risk Management (ERM) offers a holistic and structured framework for addressing these challenges. Unlike traditional risk management approaches\, ERM embeds risk considerations into all facets of an organization’s strategy and operations\, fostering a culture of accountability\, resilience\, and sustainable performance. A well-implemented ERM framework enables organizations to manage risks comprehensively and cohesively\, thereby reducing earnings and stock price volatility\, enhancing operational efficiency\, and ultimately strengthening firm performance and value. This has a positive ripple effect on returns to investors and shareholders\, while contributing to broader economic growth. \nTherefore\, this Masterclass is designed to equip delegates with critical knowledge and practical insights to effectively identify\, assess\, and respond to emerging and complex risks facing their organizations. In addition\, it will provide a valuable platform for delegates to engage\, exchange ideas\, and network with fellow professionals in the risk management field. Ultimately\, the program aims to empower participants to drive organizational resilience\, enhance competitiveness\, and foster sustainable value in today’s dynamic and rapidly evolving business environment. \nPlease note that the award of the certificate and the 20 CPD points will be contingent upon successful completion of an individual assessment based on the key learning areas covered in the Masterclass. \nThe Masterclass is divided into the following five modules covering key fundamental learning areas: \n\n\n\nDAY\nMODULE\nTOPICS\nKEY AREAS TO BE COVERED\n\n\n\n\nDAY 1\nFoundation

SUMMARY:ISA for Less Complex Entities Course-virtual option
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nISA for Less Complex Entities Course -physical option\nTheme: Adopting ISA for Less Complex Entities: Simplifying the Audit Process\nDate: 23rd -24th October 2025\nVenue: Virtual Delivery\nTime: 09.00am-03.30pm \nOverview \nThe International Standards on Auditing (ISA) prescribe the principles and practices\, which auditors are expected to follow in the conduct of Audit. They provide minimum guidance to the Auditor that helps determine the extent of auditing steps and procedures that should be applied in the audit and constitute the criteria or yardstick against which the quality of audit results are evaluated. Conducting audits in accordance with standards gives necessary assurance to people making use of the financial statements and audit reports. \nLarge 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. \nThe 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. \nThis 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. \nThe following topics will be covered:\n1. Introduction to ISA for Less Complex Entities\n• Background\n• The rationale for ISA for Less complex entities\n• Public interest overriding consideration \n2. Differences between ISA for Less complex entities and existing ISAs \n3. Core concepts of ISA for Less Complex entities\n• Fundamental Concepts\, General Principles and Overarching Requirements\n• Audit Evidence and Documentation\n• Engagement Quality Management\n• Acceptance or Continuance of an Audit Engagement and Initial Audit Engagements\n• Planning\n• Risk Identification and Assessment\n• Responding to Assessed Risks of Material Misstatement\n• Concluding\n• Forming an Opinion and Reporting\n• Audits of Group Financial Statements \nTarget Audience:\nThis course will be useful to professionals in the Audit and accounting sector with bias on assurance professionals and specifically:\n• Auditors working with small and medium-sized entities (SMEs) and less complex entities (LCEs).\n• Audit firms seeking to enhance their audit practices for smaller clients.\n• Professionals involved in the development\, implementation\, and application of auditing standards for SMEs.\n• Accounting and auditing students who aim to specialize in auditing LCEs\n• Supervisors in external audit\, internal audit and compliance\n• Mid-level managers looking to enhance their auditing skills\n• Individuals responsible for overseeing audits or teams involved in auditing \nContinuous Professional Development Units (CPD Units): \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 10 CPD Units upon successfully attending each of the sessions. \nCost:\nCharges for the training will be Kes 10\,000/= which will cover course fees\, materials\, and e-certificates of attendance. \nTarget Audience: \nThis course will be useful to all professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the profession \nOnline Booking:\nWe call on Seminar participants to note that booking for is available only online at www.icpak.com/events and will close two hours before the training session.
