SUMMARY:Evening Networking Forum-Mental Health (virtual option)
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nEvening Networking Forum- Mental Health\nTheme- Strengthening Wellbeing\, Resilience\, and Professional Performance Through Mental Health Awareness\nTime: 04pm-06pm\nDate: 15th April 2026\nVenue- Zoom \nOverview: \nMental health has emerged as a central pillar of professional effectiveness\, resilience\, and sustainable performance. For accountants\, auditors\, finance professionals\, and business leaders\, mental health awareness is critical in navigating high-pressure environments\, tight deadlines\, regulatory scrutiny\, and stakeholder expectations. It encompasses the ability to recognize\, understand\, and manage one’s own mental and emotional wellbeing\, while also fostering supportive relationships and healthy work environments. \nA strong foundation in mental health awareness enhances self-care\, stress management\, emotional regulation\, and resilience. Professionals equipped with these skills are better able to maintain focus\, make sound decisions under pressure\, manage work-related stress\, and engage constructively with colleagues\, clients\, and stakeholders. Recognizing early warning signs\, developing coping strategies\, and accessing support are vital competencies that enable individuals and teams to thrive\, even in high-stakes professional contexts. \nOrganizations and professional environments that prioritize mental health see tangible benefits in performance\, collaboration\, and innovation. Teams with mentally healthy work cultures demonstrate higher engagement\, psychological safety\, accountability\, and adaptive capacity. Leaders who model and promote mental wellbeing create environments where individuals feel supported\, empowered\, and motivated to contribute meaningfully. As professional workplaces contend with long hours\, complex client demands\, and remote or hybrid work dynamics\, mental health awareness has become essential for sustainable professional growth and organizational resilience. \nThis Evening Networking Forum offers participants an opportunity to deepen their understanding of mental health while engaging in a physical\, interactive setting. Through guided discussions\, scenario-based activities\, and practical exercises\, participants will explore strategies to manage stress\, maintain resilience\, and support colleagues’ mental wellbeing. The session blends learning with networking\, allowing participants to practice insights in real interpersonal interactions in a supportive environment. \nA practical component\, The Mental Health Mirror\, enables participants to reflect on personal stress triggers\, coping mechanisms\, and behavioral patterns that affect wellbeing. Peer-based exercises reinforce understanding\, encourage empathy\, and provide a safe space to practice stress management and self-care strategies while receiving constructive feedback. \nIn recognition of the importance of mental health in professional performance and leadership effectiveness\, the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) has organized this Evening Networking Forum. The session is designed to inspire self-awareness\, promote resilience\, and empower participants to integrate mental health strategies into their professional and personal lives. \nThe forum is designed to cover the following areas: \n\nFoundations of Mental Health for Professionals\nMental Health and Professional Effectiveness\nThe Mental Health Mirror: Guided Self-Reflection and Practical Application\nApplying Mental Health Awareness in Real Workplace Scenarios\nNetworking with Mental Health Awareness\n\nTarget Audience: \nThis forum is designed for professionals from all industries and experience levels who are looking to improve their ability to manage stress and build resilience in their careers \nContinuous Professional Development Units (CPD Units): \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 2 CPD Units upon successfully attending and participating in the forum. \nFinancial Commitment: \nThe workshop charges are Kes. 2\,000.

SUMMARY:THE FINANCIAL REPORTING WEEK 2026 EDITION I (MANDATORY TRAINING) virtual option
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nTHE FINANCIAL REPORTING WEEK 2026 EDITION I (MANDATORY TRAINING)\nTheme: Enhancing Competence and Excellence in Financial Reporting\nDate: 20th -24th April 2026\nVenue: Virtual Delivery \n(This is one of the mandatory trainings for Practicing Certificate consideration) \nOVERVIEW \nThe landscape of financial reporting is evolving at an unprecedented pace\, driven by global regulatory reforms\, rapid technological advancements\, and the growing expectations of stakeholders for transparency\, accuracy\, and timely information. Organizations rely on financial reporting not only to meet compliance requirements but also as a strategic tool that informs decision-making\, resource allocation\, and performance evaluation. In this context\, accountants and finance professionals play a pivotal role in ensuring that financial statements are both reliable and relevant\, reflecting the true financial position and performance of the organization. \nAccurate financial reporting is essential for maintaining trust with investors\, regulators\, lenders\, and other stakeholders. Errors\, omissions\, or misstatements in financial statements can have significant legal\, reputational\, and financial consequences. This makes continuous professional development in financial reporting critical\, particularly for practicing accountants who are required to uphold the highest standards of accuracy and accountability. The Financial Reporting Week offers a structured platform for participants to deepen their understanding of current standards\, explore practical application techniques\, and engage with real-life scenarios that challenge conventional approaches. \nModern financial reporting emphasizes the integration of analytical insights and strategic foresight. Professionals are expected to go beyond recording transactions\, to interpret financial data in ways that support operational and strategic decision-making. The program equips delegates with tools and methodologies that enhance analytical capabilities\, improve reporting accuracy\, and foster a culture of proactive problem-solving. By emphasizing both technical competence and strategic thinking\, participants will be better positioned to add tangible value to their organizations. \nTechnology is reshaping the way financial information is recorded\, processed\, and presented. Automation\, artificial intelligence\, cloud-based platforms\, and data analytics are increasingly integrated into financial reporting processes to enhance efficiency\, reduce errors\, and enable real-time reporting. The training introduces participants to these modern tools\, illustrating how technology can streamline reporting processes\, improve data quality\, and support timely decision-making. Delegates gain insights on adopting technology without compromising compliance or ethical standards\, preparing them for the evolving demands of the profession. \nFinally\, professional ethics\, governance\, and transparency remain at the core of effective financial reporting. Accountants are entrusted with safeguarding the integrity of financial information\, ensuring that reports reflect true and fair views of organizational performance. It is in response to this evolving landscape that the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) has organized the Financial Reporting Week to equip participants with practical skills for preparing\, analyzing\, and presenting financial statements. The training provides a structured exploration of IFRS and IPSAS standards\, integrated and sustainability reporting\, emerging technology in reporting\, and governance and ethical considerations.

SUMMARY:IFRS 5-Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations webinar
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nIFRS 5-Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations\nDate: 21st April 2026\nTime: 4:00- 6:00PM\nVenue: Virtual \nOverview \nToday’s business environment is increasingly dynamic\, characterized by frequent restructurings\, divestments\, mergers\, and strategic exits. These developments have significantly increased the occurrence of assets held for sale and discontinued operations\, making their correct accounting more critical than ever. Accurate classification\, measurement\, and presentation under IFRS 5 are essential to safeguarding the credibility of financial statements and ensuring transparent communication to investors and other key stakeholders. \nIFRS 5 provides the authoritative framework for the consistent and transparent accounting of such transactions. However\, its practical application often presents complex judgment areas\, particularly in fast-evolving business situations. This webinar is therefore designed to equip professional accountants with a clear\, practical\, and compliance-focused understanding of IFRS 5. The emphasis is on real-world implementation challenges encountered during asset disposals\, business restructuring\, and strategic repositioning. \nThe session will focus on how to: \n\nDetermine when an asset or disposal group qualifies as “held for sale”\nApply the appropriate measurement requirements at fair value less costs to sell\nIdentify and present discontinued operations accurately\nAssess the impact on profit or loss\, cash flows\, and the statement of financial position\nNavigate complex judgment areas\, including abandoned sales\, reclassification\, and impairment interactions\n\nThe webinar will adopt a practical\, application-driven approach\, highlighting common misclassifications\, disclosure gaps\, and key audit and regulatory expectations. Participants will also gain insight into how IFRS 5 interfaces with other relevant standards\, including IFRS 3\, IAS 36\, IFRS 16\, and IFRS 10. \nBy the end of the session\, participants will be better positioned to apply IFRS 5 with confidence and by so doing enhance the quality and transparency of financial reporting. This is envisaged to minimize compliance risk and communicate more effectively on discontinued operations and asset disposals. \nTarget Audience \nThis training is primarily meant for preparers of financial statements and assurance professionals although not limited to accountancy practitioners only\, staff from other units are highly encouraged to attend. \nContinuous Professional Development Units\nMembers of ICPAK and those from other reciprocating professional bodies will earn 2 CPD units upon successfully attending all conference sessions. \nFinancial Commitment: \n\n\n\nCategory\nCharges Physical \nVirtual \n \n\n\nAssociate Members\n\nKes. 1\,000\n \n\n\nFull Members\n\nKes. 1\,000\n \n\n\nNon-Member\n\nKes. 1\,000\n \n\n\n\nNote: This is virtual training and therefore training materials\, meals and other related provisions are not required. \nOnline Booking: \nWe call on seminar participants to note that booking is available only online at www.icpak.com/events.

SUMMARY:ISA 500-Audit Evidence Webinar
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nISA 500-Audit Evidence Webinar\nDate: 28th April 2026\nTime: 4.00-6.00PM\nVenue: Virtual \nOverview \nIn today’s complex and fast-evolving business environment\, audit practitioners are increasingly challenged by sophisticated transactions\, digital records\, automation\, and heightened regulatory scrutiny. At the heart of audit quality lies one fundamental requirement—the ability to obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence to support a well-founded audit opinion. ISA 500 provides the core framework that guides auditors on what constitutes reliable evidence and how it should be obtained\, evaluated\, and documented. \nISA 500 is the backbone of the entire audit process\, influencing every audit judgment and conclusion. Yet\, in practice\, auditors frequently face challenges relating to the reliability of management information\, the use of external confirmations\, the impact of technology on evidence\, and the risk of over-reliance on weak or insufficient audit documentation. This webinar is therefore designed to equip professional audit practitioners with a clear\, practical\, and risk-focused understanding of ISA 500\, emphasizing its application in real-world audit engagements. \nThe session will focus on how to: \n\nDetermine what constitutes sufficient and appropriate audit evidence\nAssess the reliability of evidence from different sources\nApply professional judgment when using information produced by the entity\nEvaluate the consistency and relevance of audit evidence obtained\nAddress limitations in audit evidence and respond appropriately when evidence is contradictory or incomplete\n\nThe webinar will adopt a practical\, application-driven approach\, highlighting common pitfalls\, inspection findings\, and audit failure risks associated with weak evidence. Key areas such as the use of external confirmations\, management representations\, analytical procedures\, and technology-generated evidence will be explored in line with current audit practice expectations. \nBy the end of the session\, participants will be better equipped to apply ISA 500 in their day-to-day professional practice. This will enable them to deliver effective and sound audit opinions that are adequately backed by credible\, defensible\, and high-quality audit evidence. \nTarget Audience \nThis training is primarily meant for preparers of financial statements and assurance professionals although not limited to accountancy practitioners only\, staff from other units are highly encouraged to attend. \nContinuous Professional Development Units \nMembers of ICPAK and those from other reciprocating professional bodies will earn 2 CPD units upon successfully attending all conference sessions. \nFinancial Commitment: \n\n\n\nCategory\nVirtual \n \n\n\nAssociate Members\nKes. 1\,000 per delegate\n\n\n\nFull Members\nKes. 1\,000 per delegate\n\n\n\nNon-Member\nKes. 1\,000 per delegate\n\n\n\n\nNote: This is virtual training and therefore training materials\, meals and other related provisions are not required. \nOnline Booking: \nWe call on seminar participants to note that booking is available only online at www.icpak.com/events.

In this setting\, practitioners serving clients with either regional or global footprints must therefore balance strategic tax planning with strict adherence to the law. \nThis workshop aims to provide a reflective yet practical look into international taxation and transfer pricing\, focusing on the realities faced by Kenyan entities involved in cross-border arrangements. It combines issues of current concern\, regulator expectations\, and technical guidance that practitioners need to internalize in meeting their competency obligations. Participants will have a greater insight into how the multinational groups structure their operations\, how the tax authorities construe such arrangements\, and how accountants can assist in complying without unduly compromising sound commercial decisions. \nWith the increased attention that the OECD\, the African Tax Administration Forum\, and KRA are giving to the fair taxation of multinational operations\, this workshop will demystify selected technical concepts using case studies and regulatory updates. This is also an avenue through which practitioners can reflect on how domestic tax rules interact with evolving international standards\, particularly with respect to transfer pricing documentation\, resolution of disputes\, and management of tax risks. Each session is structured in a way that enhances both theoretical and practical insights to ensure that participants leave the sessions with information they can apply directly in client advisory\, audits\, and organization tax planning. \nIn the end\, the program reinforces ICPAK’s commitment to enhancing the professional competence of its members\, especially those studying for or maintaining a Practicing Certificate. The workshop deepens appreciation of various international tax dynamics and transfer pricing obligations\, thus enabling practitioners to contribute towards ensuring that the profession upholds integrity and\, by extension\, supports transparent\, equitable tax practices in an increasingly interdependent economy. \nAreas to be covered: – \n\nOverview of International Taxation Frameworks and transfer pricing and Recent global developments\nRegulatory Frameworks\n\n\nOECD Transfer Pricing Guidelines\nArm’s Length Principle\nLocal country TP regulations (overview)\nDocumentation requirements: Master File\, Local File\, Country-by-Country Reporting\n\n\nUnderstanding Inter-company Transactions\nFunctional Analysis (FAR Analysis)\nTransfer Pricing Methods\n\n\nTraditional transaction methods:\nComparable Uncontrolled Price (CUP)\nResale Price Method (RPM)\nCost Plus Method\nTransactional profit methods:\nTNMM\nProfit Split Method\nMethod selection and hierarchy and Strengths and weaknesses of each method\n\n\nTransfer Pricing for Specific Transactions-Intercompany services and management fees\, IP licensing and royalties\, Cost contribution arrangements (CCAs)\, Financial transactions.\nTransfer Pricing Documentation\nTransfer Pricing Risk Management\nPractical Case Studies & Workshops- Industry-specific TP issues (manufacturing\, technology\, financial services etc)\nDigital economy and TP challenges\n\nTarget Audience \nThe workshop is suitable for tax practitioners\, audit professionals\, finance managers\, consultants\, accountants working in multinational organizations\, regulatory officers\, and members pursuing the Practicing Certificate. \nContinuous Professional Development Units (CPD UNITS): \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 10 Structured CPD Units upon successfully completion of the virtual symposium. \nFinancial Commitment \nThe symposium charges are Kshs.10\,000.

SUMMARY:Overview of IFRS S1 and S2 webinar
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nOverview of IFRS S1 & S2 Webinar\n12th May 2026\nTime: 4.00- 6.00PM\nVenue – Virtual \nOverview \nThe release of IFRS S1: General Requirements for Disclosure of Sustainability-related Financial Information and IFRS S2: Climate-related Disclosures represents a transformative shift in corporate reporting and a cornerstone for organizations seeking to integrate sustainability into mainstream financial reporting. Developed by the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB)\, these standards provide a systematic and comprehensive framework for identifying\, assessing\, and disclosing sustainability-related risks and opportunities that could affect an entity’s cash flow\, access to finance\, or cost of capital. Well-prepared disclosures enhance transparency\, facilitate accountability\, and provide stakeholders with relevant\, faithful\, comparable\, and verifiable information\, thereby supporting informed decision-making and strengthening investor confidence. \nIFRS S1 establishes overarching principles for sustainability disclosures\, emphasizing four key pillars: governance\, strategy\, risk management\, and metrics & targets. By requiring entities to consider material sustainability matters\, assess reporting boundaries\, and ensure consistency with financial statements\, IFRS S1 enables organizations to present a clear and holistic picture of how sustainability issues influence their performance and long-term value creation. IFRS S2 builds on this foundation by focusing specifically on climate-related risks and opportunities\, including physical and transition risks\, scenario analysis\, climate resilience strategies\, and greenhouse gas emissions across Scopes 1\, 2\, and 3. Together\, these standards promote integrated thinking\, encouraging organizations to move beyond isolated reporting of ESG issues toward a comprehensive approach that aligns sustainability disclosures with strategic objectives and financial performance. \nCreating and implementing disclosures under IFRS S1 and S2 is central to proactive sustainability reporting. It provides a practical tool for identifying and monitoring emerging risks\, evaluating the organization’s climate exposure\, and aligning mitigation strategies with operational and strategic priorities. By systematically documenting and disclosing material sustainability matters\, organizations are better prepared to anticipate disruptions\, respond to stakeholder expectations\, and allocate resources efficiently. This contributes to enhanced governance\, reduced uncertainty\, and improved resilience\, ultimately increasing the organization’s ability to achieve long-term objectives. \nIt is in response to this evolving landscape that the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) has organized this webinar to equip participants with skills for understanding\, interpreting\, and applying IFRS S1 and IFRS S2. The session is designed to cover the following topics: \n\nIntroduction to IFRS Sustainability standards\nIFRS S1 general requirements for sustainability-related financial information\nIFRS S2: Climate-related Disclosures – Risk Management\, Metrics and Targets\, Core Disclosure Requirements\nIFRS S2: GHG Emissions – Introduction to GHG Emissions under IFRS S2\, GHG Emission Key Concepts and Terminology\nImplementation Considerations\, Readiness Assessment\, and Assurance Requirements\n\nTARGET AUDIENCE: \nThis workshop will be useful to all Professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the Profession\, Sustainability Practitioners\, Consultants\, Auditors\, Advisors \, Investors and Financial Analysts \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. 1\,000.

SUMMARY:Risk registers development Practical course
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nRisk registers development practical course Webinar\nTheme- Strengthening Governance Through Effective Risk Registers\nDate: 9th June 2026\nTime: 04.pm-06.00pm\nDelivery Mode: Virtual \nOverview \nRisk registers are a critical component of effective risk management and organizational governance. They provide a structured and proactive method for identifying\, analyzing\, prioritizing\, and monitoring risks that may impede the achievement of strategic and operational objectives. A well-prepared risk register enhances transparency\, facilitates accountability by assigning risk ownership\, and supports the tracking of mitigation actions. This process strengthens decision-making\, promotes robust governance practices\, and fosters a culture of preparedness and resilience. \nAn effective risk register goes beyond recording risks. It should be constructed on a framework that classifies risks into categories\, applies clear assessment criteria such as likelihood and impact\, and links each risk to appropriate mitigation measures and controls. To remain relevant\, the risk register must be dynamic\, evolving with changes in both internal processes and the external environment. Integrating the risk register within an Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) framework ensures alignment with strategic goals\, regulatory compliance\, and institutional accountability. \nIn today’s complex operating environment\, risks are interconnected\, including cybersecurity\, regulatory changes\, ESG requirements\, and reputational factors. Treating risks in isolation can leave organizations exposed to cascading effects. Modern approaches encourage the use of technology-enabled solutions\, such as Governance\, Risk\, and Compliance (GRC) platforms\, which support real-time monitoring\, scenario analysis\, and informed decision-making. \nThe Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) finds it necessary to conduct this webinar to equip members with practical insights and skills to utilize risk registers effectively in governance\, oversight\, and decision-making processes. \nThe webinar will cover the following areas; \n\nIntroduction to Risk Registers\n\n\nPurpose\, governance role\, and relevance for boards and management\n\n\nCore Components of a Risk Register\n\n\nRisk description\, categories\, ownership\, controls\, and mitigation strategies\n\n\nRisk Identification Techniques and Stakeholder Engagement\nRisk Classification and Significance\n\n\nStrategic\, operational\, financial\, compliance\, reputational\, and emerging risks\n\n\nEffective Risk Assessment and Prioritization\n\n\nLikelihood\, impact\, velocity\, and interdependencies\n\n\nPractical Walkthrough of a Risk Register from end to end \n\n Target Audience: \nThis webinar will be useful to all professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the profession. \nContinuous Professional Development Units (CPDs):\nMembers of ICPAK and those from reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 2 Structured CPD Units upon successful completion of the workshop. \nFinancial Commitment:\nThe workshop charges are Kshs. 1\,000.

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. Charges will cater for online video access fees\, learning materials\, and e-certificates of attendance. \nNational Industrial Training Authority (NITA) Reimbursement \nThe Institute is registered as a trainer with National Industrial Training Authority (formerly Department of Industrial Training -DIT).

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.

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 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.

SUMMARY:ANNUAL PRACTITIONERS CONVENTION-Mandatory Training (virtual 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: Virtual Delivery \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 .
