SUMMARY:Reporting on IPSAS Accrual-Practical Course (virtual option)
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nReporting on IPSAS Accrual Practical Course\nDate: 29th – 30th January 2026\nTime: 9.00-15.30\nVenue: Virtual Delivery\nTheme: Transitioning from Cash to Accrual Reporting under IPSAS \nOverview \nPublic sector entities globally are increasingly transitioning from cash-basis accounting to International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS) Accrual basis to improve transparency\, accountability\, and comparability of financial information. For instance the Kenyan cabinet in March 2024 approved the transition from cash basis of accounting to accrual basis of accounting with effect from 1st July 2024. The accrual basis of accounting\, as outlined by IPSAS\, provides a more accurate picture of a government’s financial position and performance by recognizing transactions when they occur\, rather than when cash is received or paid. \nThis move is necessitated by the short-coming of cash basis of accounting with its attendant weaknesses arising from the point of view o financial transparency\, integrity and accountability.  Governments that follow cash basis of accounting tend not to maintain comprehensive and up-to date records of the value of their assets and liabilities. \nThe enabling factors of accrual accounting in the public sector include and is not limited to: growing recognition of the limits of pure cash basis of accounting; the development of accrual based international standards for government fiscal and financial reporting including government Finance statistics manual (GFSM) and International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS); the professionalization of the government accounting cadre and resulting introduction of private sector techniques into the public sector and the advent of computerized financial management information system (FMISs) which greatly reduce the transaction costs of collecting and consolidating accrual-based information. While many organizations have adopted IPSAS in principle\, practical challenges remain in compiling\, analyzing\, and reporting accrual-based financial statements. \nThese organizations\, often require hands on training to ensure they can correctly apply IPSAS requirements\, prepare compliant financial statements\, and understand the implications of accrual adjustments and disclosures. This two day practical course is designed to address these gaps by equipping participants with the knowledge and tools needed for accurate IPSAS-compliant reporting. \nThe following topics will be covered: \nFoundations and Practical Application of IPSAS Accrual\n\nOverview of IPSAS and the conceptual framework\nKey differences between cash basis and accrual basis reporting\nRecognition and measurement principles\nPractical sessions on:\n\n\nProperty\, plant\, and equipment (IPSAS 17)\nIntangible assets (IPSAS 31)\n\n\nRevenue from exchange and non-exchange transactions (IPSAS 9 & 23)\n\n\nEmployee benefits (IPSAS 39)\n\nPreparing IPSAS Compliant Financial Statements\n\nAccrual adjustments and closing processes\nPreparing primary financial statements:\n\n\nStatement of Financial Performance\nStatement of Financial Position\n\n\nCash Flow Statement (IPSAS 2)\n\n\nStatement of Changes in Net Assets/Equity\nNotes and disclosures requirements\nConsolidated financial statements (IPSAS 35–38)\n\n\nPractical exercise: Full preparation of an IPSAS-compliant set of financial statements.\nCommon challenges\, best practices\, and implementation strategies\n\nTARGET AUDIENCE: \nThis webinar will be useful to professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the profession but more specifically: \n\nPublic sector accountants and finance officers.\nGovernment auditors.\n\n\nPublic finance management professionals.\n\n\nInternal auditors and financial controllers.\nManagers and decision-makers in public institutions who are responsible for financial oversight.\n\nYOUR FINANCIAL COMMITMENT \nCharges for the training will be Kes 18\,500/= which will cover workshop fees\, materials\, and e-certificates of attendance. \nCPD UNITS \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 10 CPD Units upon successfully attending the sessions. \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.  Delegates are reminded to note that online booking for training sessions is mandatory.

SUMMARY:Personal Branding and Leadership Webinar
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nPersonal Branding and Leadership Webinar\nDate: 27th January 2026\nTime: 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM\nDelivery Mode: Virtual \nOverview \nPersonal branding is the intentional process of shaping how others perceive you\, both professionally and personally. It goes beyond a polished resume or social media profile; it encompasses your values\, expertise\, communication style\, and the consistent narrative you project in every interaction. In today’s interconnected world\, where reputations can be built or dismantled rapidly online\, a strong personal brand acts as a compass\, guiding decisions and attracting opportunities aligned with your authentic self. For leaders\, personal branding is not about self-promotion alone but about establishing trust and credibility that inspires others to follow. \nEffective leadership and personal branding are deeply intertwined. A leader’s brand reflects their vision\, integrity\, and ability to deliver results\, serving as a signal to teams\, stakeholders\, and peers. When leaders articulate a clear personal brand—such as being innovative\, empathetic\, or decisive—they create a framework that others can understand and rally behind. This clarity reduces ambiguity in decision-making and fosters alignment within organizations. Without a deliberate brand\, leaders risk being defined by others’ assumptions\, which may not accurately represent their strengths or intentions. \nAuthenticity is the cornerstone of sustainable personal branding in leadership. Audiences quickly detect inauthenticity\, leading to eroded trust. Great leaders build their brands around genuine strengths and values rather than fabricating an idealized image. For instance\, vulnerability in admitting mistakes or sharing personal growth stories can humanize a leader\, making them more relatable and approachable. This authentic approach not only strengthens the leader’s brand but also models behaviour that encourages openness and resilience in their teams. \nConsistency amplifies the impact of a personal brand. Leaders must ensure their actions\, words\, and online presence align across contexts—whether in boardrooms\, public speeches\, or casual conversations. Inconsistencies\, such as preaching collaboration while hoarding information\, undermine credibility faster than any external criticism. Over time\, consistent reinforcement of core messages—through storytelling\, visual identity\, and repeated behaviours—solidifies the brand in others’ minds\, turning perception into a reliable asset. \nPersonal branding also empowers leaders to navigate challenges and transitions. In times of crisis\, a well-established brand built on transparency and competence provides a buffer of goodwill. Similarly\, when pursuing new roles or expanding influence\, a strong brand precedes the leader\, opening doors through referrals and recognition. Leaders who invest in their brand proactively position themselves as thought leaders\, attracting talent\, partnerships\, and opportunities that align with their goals. \nUltimately\, personal branding in leadership is a strategic tool for amplifying impact. It transforms individual reputation into a force that elevates teams\, organizations\, and industries. By thoughtfully crafting and maintaining their brand\, leaders not only advance their own careers but also inspire others to develop their unique voices. In an era where influence often stems from perception as much as performance\, mastering personal branding remains a critical leadership competency. Join us for this webinar to get more insights on how to build your strong personal brand in a leadership space. \n Target Audience: \nAll professionals from different spheres \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). The Institute’s registration number is DIT/TRN/47. Participants who are registered levy contributors should apply to NITA for reimbursement of their fees.

SUMMARY:INPAS Practical Course on Reporting for Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs) virtual option
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nINPAS Practical Course on Reporting for Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs)\nTheme- Strengthening Financial Reporting for Transparency\, Accountability & Donor Confidence\n22nd – 23rd January 2026\nTime: 09.00am-03.30pm\nVenue – Virtual Delivery \nOverview \n Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs) occupy a unique space in society\, delivering social impact and advancing development goals across sectors. Their operations rely heavily on funding from donors\, grants\, and other resources that require careful stewardship. Accurate\, comprehensive\, and transparent financial reporting is central to sustaining stakeholder confidence\, demonstrating accountability\, and ensuring compliance with statutory and donor requirements. However\, NPOs often face challenges in financial reporting due to multiple funding sources\, restricted and unrestricted funds\, donor-specific requirements\, and sector-specific accounting standards. \nThe 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. \nINPAS 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. \nGlobal 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. \nWith 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. \nIt 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. \nThe course is designed to cover the following topics: \nThe course is designed to cover the following topics:\n1.

SUMMARY:IFRS 11 - Joint Arrangements Webinar 2025
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nIFRS 11 – Joint Arrangements Webinar 2025\nDate: 16th December  2025\nTime: 04.00pm-06.00pm\nDelivery Mode: Virtual \nOverview \nIFRS 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. \nA 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. \nA joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby joint controlling parties (joint venturers’) have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. \nDuring this training we will seek to understand the standard and the requirements \nTarget Audience: \nThis webinar will be useful to all professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the profession\, Internal and External Auditors\, Consultants and Advisors \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:Ethics for professional accountants Webinar (Mandatory Training) cohort 3
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nEthics for professional accountants Webinar – cohort 3\nDate: 3rd December  2025\nTime: 04.00pm-06.00pm\nDelivery Mode: Virtual \n(This is one of the mandatory trainings for practicing certificate consideration) \nOverview \nEthics 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. \nThis 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. \nIndependence 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. \nEmerging 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. \nBy 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. \nTopics to be covered will include:\n• Overview of the IESBA Code\n• The Conceptual Framework\n• Independence in Assurance Engagements\n• Managing Ethical Dilemmas in Practice\n• Emerging Ethics Issues\n• Strengthening the Ethical Culture of Firms \nTarget Audience: \nThis webinar will be useful to all professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the profession\, Internal and External Auditors\, Consultants and Advisors \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:International Non-Profit Accounting Standard (INPAS)
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nInternational Non-Profit Accounting Standard (INPAS)\nTheme: INPAS and the Future of Non-Profit Reporting: Enhancing Trust\, Accountability & Impact Transparency\nDate:2nd December 2025\nTime: 8:00 am to 11:00 am\nDelivery Mode: Virtual \nOverview \nThe 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. \nINPAS 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. \nGlobal 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. \nWith 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. \nIt 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. \nTopics to be covered include: \n\nPurpose\, structure and foundations of INPAS\nFinancial reporting for NPOs under a principles-based global model\nClassification\, recognition and presentation of NPO-specific transactions\nAccounting for restricted funds\, grants\, donations and conditional inflows\nProgram expenditure mapping\, outcome reporting and value attribution\nNarrative reporting and performance accountability frameworks\nTransition considerations\, practical challenges and implementation pathways\nTechnology enablement and digitization for INPAS-aligned reporting\n\n Your Financial Commitment \nThe training will be free . \nCPD Units \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 2 CPD Units upon successfully attending all sessions. \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.  Delegates are reminded to note that online booking for training sessions is mandatory.   This is available either online at www.icpak.com/events  or on the ICPAK Live – A smart phone-based application that is available from google store. \nNita Reimbursement: \nThe Institute is registered as a trainer with National Industrial Training Authority.

DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nEthics for professional accountants Webinar – cohort 2\nDate: 27th November   2025\nTime: 02.00pm-04.00pm\nDelivery Mode: Virtual \n(This is one of the mandatory trainings for practicing certificate consideration) \nOverview \nEthics 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. \nThis 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. \nIndependence 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. \nEmerging 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. \nBy 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. \nTopics to be covered will include:\n• Overview of the IESBA Code\n• The Conceptual Framework\n• Independence in Assurance Engagements\n• Managing Ethical Dilemmas in Practice\n• Emerging Ethics Issues\n• Strengthening the Ethical Culture of Firms \nTarget Audience: \nThis webinar will be useful to all professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the profession\, Internal and External Auditors\, Consultants and Advisors \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:International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) Seminar (Mandatory Training)
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nISAs Seminar (Mandatory Training)\nTheme: Translating ISAs into High-Impact Audit Practice\nDate: 26th -27th November 2025\nTime: 9.00am-3.30pm\nDelivery Mode: Virtual\n(This is one of the mandatory trainings for Practicing Certificate consideration) \nOverview \nKenya’s audit profession is experiencing profound transformation driven by regulatory reforms\, heightened public expectations\, increasingly complex business models\, and rapid technological change. As markets evolve\, stakeholders including investors\, regulators\, lenders\, development partners\, and the general public demand audits that are rigorous\, credible\, and value-driven. This heightened scrutiny places renewed emphasis on the auditor’s role as a guardian of financial integrity\, requiring them to consistently deliver work that restores confidence in financial reporting. \nInternational Standards on Auditing (ISAs) remain the cornerstone of audit quality. Yet\, inspection findings by ICPAK’s Quality Assurance reviews\, and global oversight bodies reveal persistent gaps in the consistent\, effective\, and judicious application of ISAs. While many practitioners understand ISAs conceptually\, challenges often arise when translating this knowledge into robust audit procedures\, high-quality documentation\, and evidence-based conclusions—particularly in high-pressure or resource-constrained environments. \nThe ability of Kenyan auditors to uphold audit quality is further tested by emerging risks and the increasing complexity of financial reporting. Judgement-intensive areas—such as fair value measurement\, impairment assessments\, expected credit losses\, revenue recognition\, and fraud risk demand deep technical understanding and professional scepticism. Simultaneously\, new reporting expectations\, sector-specific regulatory requirements\, and the acceleration of digital transformation are reshaping the audit landscape. These developments call for practitioners to move beyond mechanical compliance and adopt a dynamic\, risk-informed\, and forward-looking approach to applying ISAs. \nTranslating ISAs into high-impact audit practice therefore requires a strategic shift toward strengthening practical competence\, methodological discipline\, and professional judgement. Practitioners must not only interpret standards accurately but also operationalize them effectively across engagements of varying size\, complexity\, and risk profiles. By deepening practice-oriented mastery of ISAs\, the profession will be better positioned to elevate audit quality\, reduce recurring inspection findings\, and reinforce public trust in Kenya’s financial reporting ecosystem. \nIn response to this need\, ICPAK has designed a comprehensive two-day virtual symposium aimed at empowering assurance practitioners with the tools\, insights\, and confidence required to convert ISAs into tangible audit impact. The symposium will cover the following key areas: \n\n Strengthening Audit Quality Foundations\n\n\nRole of ISAs in enhancing credibility and public confidence\nPractical implementation of ISQM 1 and ISQM 2 in various firm sizes\nCommon QA inspection findings and how to address them\n\n\n ISA-Driven Audit Planning & Risk Assessment\n\n\nISA 300: Effective audit planning for quality outcomes\nISA 315 (Revised): Understanding the entity\, systems\, and risks\nEmbedding professional skepticism in risk identification and assessment\n\n\n High-Impact Execution of Audit Procedures\n\n\nISA 500: Understanding and evaluating sufficient appropriate audit evidence\nISA 530: Practical sampling techniques and pitfalls\nEvidence challenges in sectors such as SACCOs\, NGOs\, financial institutions\, and county governments\n\n\n Audit of Significant Judgement Areas\n\n\nISA 570: Going concern assessments under uncertainty\nISA 240: Addressing fraud risk with robust audit responses\nApproaches to complex estimates\, fair value\, and ECLs\n\n\n Effective Audit Documentation\n\n\nISA 230: Documentation requirements and common pitfalls\nBuilding audit files that withstand quality inspections\nReal-file analysis: Characteristics of high-quality working papers\n\n\n Technology-Enabled Audit Practice\n\n\nLeveraging audit data analytics for risk assessment and substantive testing\nNavigating digital audit trails and cybersecurity considerations\nEthical and effective use of AI tools in assurance engagements\n\nTarget Audience \nThis workshop will be useful to all professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the profession \nContinuous Professional Development Units (CPD Units): \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 10 CPD Units upon successfully attending the session. \nCost: \nCharges for the training will be Kes 10\,000/= which will cover workshop fees\, materials\, and e-certificates of attendance. \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.  Delegates are reminded to note that online booking for training sessions is mandatory.   This is available either online at www.icpak.com/events  or on the ICPAK Live – A smart phone-based application that is available from google store. \nNational Industrial Training Authority (NITA) Reimbursement: \nThe Institute is registered as a trainer with National Industrial Training Authority.

SUMMARY:THE 42ND ANNUAL SEMINAR EDITION 2 (virtual option)
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountant Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nTTHE 42ND ANNUAL SEMINAR EDITION 2\nTheme: From Transactions to Transformation: Accountancy Impacting the World\nHYBRID EVENT: SAROVA WHITESANDS BEACH RESORT & SPA\, PRIDE INN PARADISE HOTEL\, MOMBASA AND VIRTUAL\nDATES: MONDAY 17TH TO FRIDAY 21ST NOVEMBER 2025\nTIME: 09.00AM-03.30PM \nABOUT ICPAK – THE HOST  \nThe Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) is a regulatory body mandated to regulate and coordinate the activities of qualified and registered Certified Public Accountants (CPAs) in Kenya – including promoting research into the subject of accountancy and finance and related matters\, publication of books\, periodicals\, journals and articles in connection therewith; promoting the international recognition of the Institute\, advising the Examination Board on matters relating to examinations standards and policies\, advising the Minister for Finance on matters relating to financial accountability in all sectors of the economy and setting and enforcing standards of professional practice such as accounting\, auditing and ethical standards. The Institute is established by an Act of parliament – The Accountants Act and has been in existence since 1978.  Over its long history it has registered over 40\,000 members. Its members work in diverse sectors of the economy as accountants\, financial experts\, auditors\, financial consultants among other careers within the larger definition of accountancy. Over 1200 of our members have emigrated and are working beyond the borders of Kenya. Members of the Institute are present in 44 different countries around the globe. \nANNUAL SEMINARS – A BRIEF HISTORY  \nEach year for the last 41 years\, ICPAK has maintained a rich tradition of congregating once a year to reflect on the profession and emerging issues affecting the nation.  The last seminar followed the same pattern as it sought to reinforce the role of professional accountants in sustainability reporting and climate change. Both editions of the 41st Annual Seminar attracted an average of 3\,900 participants on both physical and virtual attendance\, largely drawn from Kenya but with representation from Uganda\, Tanzania\, Rwanda\, Burundi\, Mozambique and South Africa.  The current event is targeted to attract a wider representation of East Africa and the continent at large. \nDue to limited seats the Institute has held two Annual Seminars since 2021to enable participation by most members. This year\, the Institute shall also hold two Annual Seminars dubbed Edition 1 and Edition 2 to accommodate all the professionals. The first edition shall be held from 19th -23rd May 2025 while the second one for this year shall be held on 17th – 21st November 2025. \nThis year’s events mark 42 years since the time when the Institute held its first Annual Seminar in 1984. This demonstrates resilience\, unity and focus of the Accountancy profession. Throughout these decades\, the Annual Seminar has acted as a beacon of hope for the profession. \nThe Institute shall hold the Seminar in two physical venues i.e Sarova White sands and Pride Inn Paradise Hotel in Mombasa\, Kenya with an option of live streaming and allocation of speakers and panelists across both venues. The delegates’ allocation to both venues shall be done based on date of payment\, with the first venue being allocated the early paying delegates. The seminar shall also be streamed on the virtual platform where some delegates and speakers shall be participating. \nOVERVIEW OF SEMINAR SUB-THEMES AND ORGANIZATION \nDAY ONE: MONDAY 17th NOV 2025: ARRIVAL AND REGISTRATION \nThe arrival and registration process shall be carried out by ICPAK and will commence on Monday\,17th Nov 2025 from 8.00 a.m. up to 5.00p.m. Due to the large numbers witnessed before in the previous Annual Seminars and to allow for a smooth registration process\, the whole day has been reserved for registration and giveaway collection by delegates. \nDAY TWO: TUESDAY 18th NOV 2025- ACCOUNTANCY PROFESSION TRANSFORMING THE WORLD. \nThe profession of accountancy is experiencing a stunning transformation\, redefining not only the way businesses function but also the way societies function. Previously narrowly focused on bookkeeping and compliance\, accountancy has developed into a field that overlaps with governance\, policy\, technology\, and sustainable development. Today\, accountants are required to merge technical know-how with strategic insight\, providing information that informs top-level decision-making. This evolution has turned the job into an international change agent\, actively contributing to economic stability\, transparency\, and innovation. \nToday’s accountants are being asked more and more to sense and respond to sophisticated global forces. They have moved beyond their historic function of transcribing transactions to analyzing information and shaping organizational strategy. The demand for professionals who have the ability to adapt to new realities such as increased rates of technological change\, globalizing markets\, and altered regulatory landscapes has never been greater. Through developing forward-looking capacities and adopting innovations\, the profession is preparing itself for a future of resilience\, nimbleness\, and inclusivity. \nGlobal interdependence of economies has also highlighted the requirement for harmonized professional standards and ethical guidelines. With the greater ease of movement of capital\, people\, and ideas across borders\, accountants are increasingly becoming global actors who must work within diverse regulatory contexts and uphold the values of integrity and responsibility. This requires lifelong learning\, openness to global approaches\, and the ability to use professional judgment in a variety of situations. Simultaneously\, talent mobility is reshaping accountants’ views on career prospects as many seek to get into jobs that are greater than national and add value in more than one jurisdiction. \nTechnology is behind this transformation. Emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence\, blockchain\, and new-generation data analytics are revolutionizing the capture\, processing\, and distribution of financial information. Rather than displacing the profession\, these technologies are extending its capacity for more efficiency\, accuracy\, and transparency. Those accountants who embrace technology are placing themselves at the forefront of innovation\, enabling organizations to capitalize on new opportunities while managing threats in a more digitalized world. This technological transformation also occurs in the public sector\, where governments are investing in integrated financial management systems and electronic compliance platforms to improve accountability\, service delivery\, and trust in institutions. \nBesides technical and technological transformation\, the profession is also undergoing transformations in broader societal expectations. Stakeholders demand accountants now to actively contribute towards enabling sustainability\, ethical leadership\, and equitable economic development. Not only are today’s accountants expected to deliver value to businesses\, but they are also required to deliver value to the well-being of society and the preservation of the environment. This wider mandate demands a new breed of professional who is visionary\, adaptive\, and committed to making change happen in whatever field they enter. \nAs the world evolves\, the accountancy profession is at a crossroads. Whether it can shape governance\, inform policy\, embrace the latest technologies\, and address global issues will decide its future relevance and influence. Day Two of the conference will thus look back at this evolution\, with views that affirm the role of accountancy in creating a more transparent\, resilient\, and sustainable world. \nThe following key topics shall form part of the discussion on the second day of the Seminar: \n\nFuture Fit Accountants: Roles for the next decade\nState of the Accountancy Profession Globally\nRevision and development of new accountancy and audit standards and the impact on the profession\nThe great talent migration: Career options for accountants in other jurisdictions\nReal life use of AI and Block chain in Accountancy\nOverview of Government advancements in technology– EGP\, eTims\, iTax\, IFMIS\n\nDAY THREE:WEDNESDAY 19th NOV  2025: DEBT\, DEVELOPMENT & MULTILATERALISM \nDebt remains one of the signature issues of our era\, dictating the capacity of nations to spend on roads\, cater for the essentials of their populations\, and attain sustainable development. For developing countries such as Kenya\, the matter of balancing public debt against economic growth is more pressing. The cycle of borrowing\, repayment\, and financial obligation also includes convergence with domestic and foreign affairs since multilateral institutions are still at the center of defining debt management policy. This session will provide a platform to discuss debt not just as a money instrument but as an instrument of development and as a promoter of international cooperation. \nIn fact\, borrowing is now one of the most important growth drivers in modern economies. Debt is used by governments to finance long-term energy\, health\, transport\, and education schemes. But uncontrolled accumulation of debt can put pressure on public finances and limit future fiscal elbow room. For Kenya\, as for many emerging markets\, the pressing issue is how to reconcile borrowing with prudential management of debt and make sure that funds are steered to productive investment. It is this reconciliation that is central to sustaining growth\, creating employment\, and reducing inequality. \nThe debt debate is also accompanied by a contemplative glance at the role of multilateralism. Regional blocks and global financial institutions offer mechanisms that may enable or constrain domestic policy choice. Design of loan agreements\, debt rescheduling programs\, and world financial management carry deep consequences. The policymakers must negotiate for arrangements that promote sovereignty while giving access to the capital that will promote change. Through multilateral negotiation\, countries can move towards a more balanced system that equally matches the interests of creditors and the developmental objectives of borrowers. \nMoreover\, debt negotiations are not separable from the general argument about sustainability. Borrowing today and the choice to do so decide what options are available for future generations. Debt can pay for green energy\, climate resilience\, and technological progress—investment that will be stable over the long run if done judiciously. Debt can also drive dependencies and reduce the ability of nations to achieve their development goals if misused. \nDay Three will thus ask participants to pose the question of how debt\, development\, and multilateral partnership converge to influence the future of Kenya. Opportunities and challenges will be the focus of the discussion with a call to stakeholders to consider how to design financial strategies which are inclusive\, sustainable\, and transformative. \nThe following key topics shall form part of the discussion on the third day of the Seminar: \n\nDebt Sustainability and Restructuring:Strategies for managing and resolving sovereign debt crises and promoting responsible lending and borrowing.\nAffordable and Innovative Finance:Increasing concessional finance\, grants\, and local currency lending to bridge the development finance gap in the country.\nMobilizing Private Capital:Strategies to attract private investment to complement public development finance for achieving SDGs.\nReforming Multilateral Development Banks:Adapting and reforming multilateral development banks to meet new global challenges and enhance their relevance.\n\nDAY FOUR: THURSDAY  20TH NOV 2025- THE KENYA WE WANT  \nThe vision of a prosperous Kenya has always rested on aspirations of unity\, inclusivity\, and shared advancement. But realizing this vision requires an honest evaluation of where the country is now and a deliberate conversation on where it must head over the next few years. The Kenya We Want” is not a slogan—it is a call to action\, a blueprint for the future\, and a vow to create a society that is reflective of the aspirations and ideals of the people. \nKenya is a country that is full of potential with a youthful population\, abundant natural resources\, and a geoeconomic location at the center of the global economy. But it also continues to grapple with long-term issues of governance\, inequality\, and management of resources. To achieve the Kenya we all wish for\, stakeholders need to question how governance institutions can be made stronger to provide transparency\, efficiency\, and accountability. Strong institutions continue to be the foundation of economic development and social cohesion\, and their ongoing improvement is critical to making lasting progress. \nThe discussion is also about inclusivity. A Kenya for all is one where opportunities are not tilted in a few areas or a narrow elite\, but available to all Kenyans\, irrespective of station. This means closing gaps in education\, medicine\, road and other physical infrastructure\, and access to technology to make every Kenyan able to thrive in the 21st century. The. question is not merely how to open up opportunities\, but how to make them significant and lasting. \nInnovation and youth empowerment will be the central pillars of this vision. Young Kenyans already are reshaping industries\, from fintech to arts\, and are Kenya’s best hope for the future. By creating an enabling environment for entrepreneurship\, skills\, and digital innovation\, Kenya will be able to carve out a path that is competitive and uniquely African. \nUltimately\, the Kenya we want is one built on values—responsibility\, solidarity\, equity\, and integrity. Day Four will provide room to converse across sectors and challenge participants to articulate a vision that is not only ambitious but also possible. The discussion will underscore that the future Kenya is built by us all and demands commitment\, creativity\, and cooperation today. \nThe following key topics shall form part of the discussion on the fourth day of the Seminar: \n\nKenyan Constitutionalism: The challenges and promises of constitutional reform in Kenya\nAnti-Corruption and Integrity:Strengthening governance and integrity frameworks and policies in the Country\nEthics at play: An overview of the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants\nChallenges and opportunities for elected leaders in steering the country to economic acceleration\n\nDAY FIVE: FRIDAY 21ST NOV  2025- WILLS\, TRUST & ESTATE PLANNING.  \nIn an era of unpredictability and uncharted change\, planning for the future is more important than ever before. Wills\, trusts\, and estate planning are not only legal processes; they are instruments of financial security\, family stability\, and intergenerational continuity as well. Day Five will explore the significance of these tools in the preservation of wealth\, honoring the individual’s intentions\, and organized succession in family and business contexts. \nFor families\, estate planning ensures that their treasures are shared as they wish\, reducing the possibility of conflict and uncertainty among loved ones. In societies where inheritance disputes break up families and deplete assets\, a plan is not only a smart thing to do\, but it must be done. Wills and trusts establish a framework that promotes equity\, clarity\, and respect for heritage. \nAt the business level\, continuity is most important and needs succession planning. Family firms\, the backbone of the majority of economies\, often suffer poor succession leadership. Companies\, lacking estate planning\, are exposed to fragmentation or collapse as control changes hands. Trusts and strategically conceived succession planning ensure companies are well-fortified across generations and provide protection of employment and preservation of value creation. \nFrom a broader perspective\, estate planning also crosses social and economic development. By reducing conflict and protecting assets\, these tools feed into fiscal security and community wealth preservation. They also encourage a sense of responsibility and vision\, challenging individuals and institutions to think beyond short-term gains toward enduring legacies. \nDay Five will push individuals to consider not only the mechanics of wills and trusts but also their effect on society. Through thoughtful planning\, individuals and institutions can secure their futures and contribute to the continuity and well-being of generations that follow. \nThe following sub-topics shall form part of the discussion on the fifth day of the Seminar: \nWills\, trust & estate planning: \n\nHealthcare Directives and Living Wills: Planning for end-of-life care by appointing a healthcare proxy and documenting your wishes regarding medical treatment.\nGuardianship for minor children: The critical process of nominating a guardian for dependent children in a will.\nAsset protection planning:Using trusts and other legal mechanisms to protect assets from lawsuits\, creditors\, and ex-spouses.\nBusiness succession planning: Essential strategies for transferring ownership and control of a family or privately held business.\nPlanning for blended families: Using trusts to ensure children from different marriages receive their intended inheritance.\n\nSUMMARY OF SEMINAR TOPICS \nOverall\, the seminar topics for the 4 days of learning are as indicated below: \n\nFuture Fit Accountants: Roles for the next decade\nState of the Accountancy Profession Globally\nRevision and development of new accountancy and audit standards and the impact on the profession\nThe great talent migration: Career options for accountants in other jurisdictions\nReal life use of AI and Block chain in Accountancy\nOverview of Government advancements in technology– EGP\, eTims\, iTax\, IFMIS\nDebt Sustainability and Restructuring:Strategies for managing and resolving sovereign debt crises and promoting responsible lending and borrowing.\nAffordable and Innovative Finance:Increasing concessional finance\, grants\, and local currency lending to bridge the development finance gap in the country.\nMobilizing Private Capital:Strategies to attract private investment to complement public development finance for achieving SDGs.\nReforming Multilateral Development Banks:Adapting and reforming multilateral development banks to meet new global challenges and enhance their relevance.\nKenyan Constitutionalism: The challenges and promises of constitutional reform in Kenya\nAnti-Corruption and Integrity:Strengthening governance and integrity frameworks and policies in the Country\nEthics at play: An overview of the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants\nChallenges and opportunities for elected leaders in steering the country to economic acceleration\nWills\, Trusts & Estate Planning:\n\n\nHealthcare Directives and Living Wills: Planning for end-of-life care by appointing a healthcare proxy and documenting your wishes regarding medical treatment\nGuardianship for minor children: The critical process of nominating a guardian for dependent children in a will.\nAsset protection planning:Using trusts and other legal mechanisms to protect assets from lawsuits\, creditors\, and ex-spouses.\nBusiness succession planning: Essential strategies for transferring ownership and control of a family or privately held business.\nPlanning for blended families: Using trusts to ensure children from different marriages receive their intended inheritance.\n\nCONFERENCE CHARGES \n\n\n\nDetails\nAmount\n\n\nAssociate Members\nKes. 64\,000 per Delegate\n\n\nFull Members\nKes. 69\,000 per Delegate\n\n\nNon-Members\nKes. 74\,000 per Delegate\n\n\nVirtual Option (Members)\nKes. 25\,000 per Delegate\n\n\nVirtual Option (Non-Members)\nKes. 25\,000 per Delegate\n\n\nAccommodation\nDelegates are advised to make own accommodation arrangements\n\n\n\nBookings Deadline: Bookings close on Friday\, 14th November 2025 at 17:00 pm \nCONTINUOUS PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT UNITS \nMembers of ICPAK and other reciprocating professional bodies will earn 20 Structured CPD points upon successfully attending the 42nd Annual Seminar Edition 1. \nNATIONAL INDUSTRIAL TRAINING AUTHORITY (NITA) REIMBURSEMENT \nThe Institute is registered as a trainer with National Industrial Training Authority.

SUMMARY:Sustainability Reporting Workshop 2025
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nSustainability Reporting Workshop\nTheme: Navigating the Future: Sustainability\, Innovation and Governance in Accounting Practices\nDate: 12th – 13th November 2025\nTime: 9.00am-3.30pm\nDelivery Mode: Virtual \nOverview \nAcross the globe\, the demand for transparent\, decision-useful sustainability information continues to grow. Stakeholders from investors to regulators\, customers to communities expect organizations to account for their environmental\, social\, and governance (ESG) impacts. The evolution of global reporting frameworks such as the IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards (IFRS S1 and S2)\, the GRI Standards\, and the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) signifies the shift toward standardized\, comparable\, and reliable ESG reporting. \nIn recognition of this pivotal shift\, ICPAK launched the Roadmap for adoption of IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards (IFRS S1 and S2) in November 2024. This landmark initiative underscores ICPAK’s commitment to equipping Kenyan professionals with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate this new era of corporate reporting and contribute to sustainable national development\, a commitment that extends to influencing practices in both the private and public spheres. \nRecent trends such as greenwashing\, greenhushing\, and a growing lack of stakeholder trust have prompted the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA) to introduce the IESSA framework—new ethics and independence standards tailored for sustainability assurance engagements. Understanding these developments is crucial for accounting professionals who are increasingly being called upon to ensure the integrity of ESG disclosures. \nThis 2-day virtual symposium aims to provide professionals with relevant and practical insights into the key developments in sustainability reporting. Emphasis will be placed on how organizations can align with new standards\, embed sustainability into governance structures\, and avoid the pitfalls of unethical reporting practices. The symposium is structured to allow for expert presentations\, real-world examples\, and interactive Q&A sessions\, ensuring participants gain both technical and strategic value. \nKey Topics \n\n\n\nDAY\nMODULE\nTOPICS\n\n\n\n\nDAY 1\nA.   Introduction to IFRS S1 & S2\n·         The Need for Sustainability Reporting \n·         Objective of IFRS S1 & S2 \n·         Introduction to the Core content pillars \n·         Relationship with Other Standards\n\n\nB.   General requirements \n·         General requirements \no   Sources of Guidance \no   Location of Disclosures \no   Timing of reporting \no   Comparative information \no   Statement of Compliance \no   Judgments\, uncertainties & errors \no   Best practices in data collection \no   Building capacity within the organization \no   Transition Reliefs\n\n\nC.   Materiality Assessment\n·         Definition and Concept of Materiality \n·         Materiality Judgment Process \n·         Sources of Information \n·         Boundary of reporting \n·         Integration with Risk and Opportunity Assessment \n·         Documentation and Audit Trail\n\n\nDAY 2\nD.   Integrating Sustainability into the Corporate Strategy\n·         Developing a Sustainability Strategy \n·         Setting sustainability goals & action plans \n·         Aligning sustainability initiatives with business strategy \n·         Ethical considerations in sustainability disclosures \n·         Setting and evaluating sustainability KPIs \n·         Common reporting pitfalls & how to avoid them\n\n\nE.     Scenario Analysis\n·         Purpose and Benefits of Scenario Analysis \n·         Types of Scenarios \n·         Resilience Assessment \n·         Integration into Strategic Planning \n·         Disclosure Expectations under IFRS S2 \n·         Governance of Scenario Analysis \n·         Challenges and Best Practices\n\n\nF.   GHG Accounting\nGHG Emissions \n·         Cross-industry climate metrics \n·         Introduction to GHG Emissions \n·         Climate-Related Financial Risk and GHG Emissions \n·         GHG disclosure \n·         GHG key concepts \n·         GHG measurements \n·         Disaggregation of GHG emissions.\n\n\n\nTarget Audience: \nThis training will be useful to all professional Accountants and professionals from all relevant cross-cutting disciplines since sustainability reporting and the IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards are professional agnostic. \nContinuous Professional Development Units (CPD Units): \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 10 CPD Units upon successfully attending the session. \nCost: \nCharges for the training will be Kes 10\,000/= which will cover workshop fees\, materials\, and e-certificates of attendance. \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.  Delegates are reminded to note that online booking for training sessions is mandatory.   This is available either online at www.icpak.com/events  or on the ICPAK Live – A smart phone-based application that is available from google store. \nNational Industrial Training Authority (NITA) Reimbursement: \nThe Institute is registered as a trainer with National Industrial Training Authority.

SUMMARY:Risk registers development course (virtual option)
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nRisk Register Development Course (virtual Option)\nHybrid Event – CPA Centre and Virtual\n5th – 6th November 2025\nTheme- Strengthening Governance Through Effective Risk Register Development\nTime: 09.00am-03.30pm \nOverview \nRisk register development is a vital element of robust risk management and a cornerstone of organizational resilience. It offers a systematic and proactive method for identifying\, analyzing\, prioritizing\, and responding to risks that could impede the achievement of both strategic and operational goals. A well-designed risk register gives organizations clear visibility into potential threats\, facilitates accountability by assigning risk ownership\, and supports the tracking of mitigation actions. This process not only enhances the quality of decision-making but also encourages strong governance practices and cultivates a culture rooted in transparency and preparedness. \nAn effective risk register goes beyond simply recording risks. It should be built on a solid framework that classifies risks into categories\, applies clear assessment criteria such as likelihood and impact\, and links each identified risk to mitigation strategies and internal controls. To ensure its continued relevance\, the risk register must be dynamic\, evolving with changes in internal processes and the external environment. Integrating the risk register within a broader Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) framework ensures alignment with strategic objectives\, regulatory compliance\, and improved institutional accountability. \nCreating and maintaining a risk register is central to proactive risk management. It serves as a practical tool for identifying and monitoring risks throughout a project or across an organization. By documenting risks systematically and aligning them with mitigation strategies\, teams are better prepared to anticipate disruptions and allocate resources strategically. This contributes to more informed decision-making and reduces uncertainty by offering a clear\, up-to-date picture of potential threats and responses. Ultimately\, the risk register helps strengthen resilience and improve the chances of achieving long-term objectives. \nIn today’s complex and fast-changing business environment\, risk is no longer confined to isolated areas. Emerging challenges like cybersecurity threats\, geopolitical unrest\, regulatory shifts\, and climate-related disruptions are deeply interconnected. Treating risks as standalone issues\, especially through outdated spreadsheet-based registers\, can leave organizations vulnerable to cascading impacts. To adapt\, organizations must adopt modern risk management technologies\, such as integrated Governance\, Risk\, and Compliance (GRC) platforms. These systems offer real-time tracking\, risk interconnection mapping\, and enhanced scenario analysis\, transforming traditional registers into strategic decision-making tools. It is in response to this evolving landscape that the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) has organized this training to equip delegates with practical skills for developing modern\, globally aligned risk registers that meet today’s organizational demands. \nThe course is designed to cover the following topics: \n\n Foundations of Risk Management for Accountants\n Structure and Components of an Effective Risk Register\n\n\nKey elements of a comprehensive risk register\, including risk description\, categories\, controls\, and mitigation strategies.\n\n\n Risk Identification Techniques and Stakeholder Engagement\n Risk Classification and Significance\n\n\nTypes of risks: strategic\, operational\, financial\, and compliance.\nRisk reputation and their impact on organizational performance.\n\n\n Effective Risk Assessment and Prioritization Techniques\n Strategic Risk Response and Mitigation Planning\n From Static to Strategic: Evolving the Risk Register – transforming traditional risk registers into dynamic tools that support integrated decision-making and real-time responsiveness.\n\n8.Leveraging Technology: GRC and Cloud-Based Risk Management – Utilizing Governance\, Risk\, and Compliance platforms and cloud-based solutions to improve risk tracking\, visualization\, and reporting. \n\n Professional Ethics and the Accountant’s Role in Risk Governance \n Developing and Reviewing Risk Registers Through Case Studies\n Conducting Scenario Analysis for Interrelated Risks\n\nTarget Audience: \nRisk Managers and Compliance Officers\, Risk Champions\, CFOs\, Accountants and other interested professionals \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. \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.

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).
