SUMMARY:Measuring GHG Emissions-Scope 1\,2 and 3 Practical (virtual option)
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nMeasuring GHG Emissions-Scope 1\,2 and 3 Practical (virtual option)\nDate: 17th – 18th September 2026\nTime: 9:00am – 4:00pm\nVenue: Virtual Delivery \nOverview \nThere is increased pressure from regulators\, investors\, financiers\, and other stakeholders for organizations across all sectors to measure\, manage\, and transparently report their GHG emissions. With increasing mainstreaming of climate-related disclosures\, the need for professionals who can apply the GHG accounting principles practically\, as set out in recognized global frameworks\, cannot be over-emphasized. This practical course will focus on the development of hands-on capacity to measure\, calculate\, document\, and report GHG emissions for Scope 1\, Scope 2\, and Scope 3. The course will bridge the gap between theory and practice by focusing on real-life organizational scenarios\, sector-specific emission sources\, and practical calculations that align with international best practice. \nWith the gradual evolution of sustainability reporting\, it is increasingly expected of entities to report their carbon footprint in a reliable\, consistent\, and auditable manner. Yet\, for many organizations\, technical challenges persist regarding source identification for emissions\, collection of quality data on activities\, methods for selecting the most appropriate emission factors\, and completeness and accuracy concerns in disclosures. This course responds to the practical competencies gap by equipping participants with the necessary competencies to operationalize GHG measurement\, enhance internal data systems\, support assurance processes\, and better ensure the credibility of climate-related information presented within corporate reports. \nThe course will enhance the practical ability of participants to identify relevant emission sources\, apply standardized calculation methodologies\, manage data collection processes\, and prepare reliable GHG emissions reports. It seeks to build competence in distinguishing between direct and indirect emissions\, developing organizational and operational boundaries\, and embedding internal controls that support high-quality environmental data. Participants will also gain an appreciation of how robust GHG reporting supports risk management\, regulatory compliance\, strategic planning\, and stakeholder confidence. \nAdditionally\, the following topics will be discussed during the sessions: \nIntroduction to GHG Accounting Frameworks \n\nOverview of internationally accepted GHG accounting principles\nUnderstanding organizational and operational boundaries\nAlignment with global climate disclosure expectations\n\nPractical Measurement of Scope 1 Emissions \n\nIdentifying direct emission sources (fuel combustion\, company vehicles\, industrial processes)\nActivity data collection and quality checks\nHands-on calculations using emission factors\n\nPractical Measurement of Scope 2 Emissions \n\nAccounting for purchased electricity\, steam\, heating\, and cooling\nMarket-based versus location-based methods\nElectricity data interpretation and practical calculation exercises\n\nPractical Measurement of Scope 3 Emissions \n\nMapping value chain emission sources\nPrioritization of material Scope 3 categories\nPractical approaches to data estimation and supplier engagement\n\nGHG Data Management and Internal Controls \n\nDesigning data collection templates and control processes\nManaging data gaps\, assumptions\, and estimations\nDocumentation and audit trail requirements\n\nPreparation of GHG Emissions Reports \n\nStructuring clear and credible GHG disclosures\nConsistency with financial and sustainability reporting\nCommon errors and how to avoid them\n\nVerification and Assurance Readiness \n\nPreparing GHG data for independent verification\nUnderstanding assurance expectations and evidence requirements\nResponding to review findings and improving reporting quality\n\nLinking GHG Measurement to Strategy and Performance \n\nUsing emissions data to inform risk management and decision-making\nSetting reduction targets and monitoring progress\nIntegrating GHG data into broader ESG and sustainability frameworks\n\n Target Audience \n The course is intended for accountants\, auditors\, sustainability and ESG professionals\, internal control and risk management practitioners\, finance and operations managers\, environmental and health and safety officers\, compliance officers\, and consultants who are engaged in sustainability reporting or climate-related risk management. It will also be useful to public sector professionals\, regulators\, and development practitioners who support environmental accountability and the implementation of climate policy. \n Continuous Professional Development Units (CPD UNITS): \nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 10 Structured CPD Units upon successfully completion of the course. \nFinancial Commitment \nThe webinar charges are Kshs. 10\,000.

SUMMARY:Enhancement of compliance from reviews webinar
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nEnhancement of Compliance from Reviews webinar\nDate: 22nd September 2026\nTime: 04.00pm-06.00pm\nVenue: Virtual Delivery \nOverview \nThe Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) conducts practice reviews and quality assurance assessments to promote adherence to professional standards\, ethical requirements\, and regulatory obligations among accounting professionals and firms. These reviews provide valuable feedback on the effectiveness of quality management systems\, audit methodologies\, documentation practices\, independence requirements\, and compliance with applicable professional standards. The findings and recommendations arising from such reviews offer an opportunity for firms and practitioners to identify weaknesses and implement measures that strengthen compliance and improve the quality of professional services. \nThe purpose of this initiative is to enhance compliance through the effective implementation of recommendations arising from ICPAK reviews. By addressing identified gaps and strengthening internal controls\, firms can improve adherence to professional and ethical standards\, reduce the risk of regulatory breaches\, and enhance the quality and reliability of their services. The initiative seeks to foster a culture of continuous improvement and accountability within professional practice. \nTo achieve this objective\, firms will review and analyze findings from ICPAK review reports\, develop corrective action plans\, and implement measures to address identified deficiencies. This will include reviewing and updating policies and procedures\, strengthening quality management systems\, improving documentation and record-keeping practices\, and providing targeted training to staff on professional and regulatory requirements. Periodic internal reviews and monitoring activities will also be undertaken to assess progress and ensure sustained compliance. \nThe expected outcome of this initiative is improved compliance with ICPAK requirements\, professional standards\, and ethical obligations. Enhanced compliance will contribute to higher-quality audit\, assurance\, and accounting services\, strengthen stakeholder confidence\, and reduce the recurrence of findings in future reviews. In addition\, stronger governance\, risk management\, and internal control processes will support the long-term sustainability and reputation of firms and practitioners. \nThe reviews serve as an important mechanism for promoting professional excellence and regulatory compliance within the accounting profession. By proactively addressing review findings and implementing recommended improvements\, firms and practitioners can strengthen their compliance frameworks\, improve service quality\, and uphold the highest standards of professionalism and ethical conduct. \nTraining areas \n\nOverview of ICPAK Practice Reviews and areas of improvement\nISQM 1 and ISQM 2 Compliance\nEthics and Independence Requirements\nApplication of International Standards on Auditing (ISAs)\nMonitoring and Internal Compliance Reviews\nAnti-Money Laundering (AML) and Counter-Terrorism Financing Compliance\nImplementation of Review Recommendations\nTechnology and Quality Management\n\nTarget 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:Audit Staff Training-A Practical Approach (Mandatory Training
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nAudit Staff Training-A practical Approach (Mandatory Training)\nTheme: Future-Ready Auditors: Enhancing Quality\, Innovation and Trust.\nDate: 30th September -1st October 2026\nTime: 9.00-15.30\nVenue: virtual\n(This is one of the mandatory trainings for Practicing Certificate consideration) \nOverview \nThe audit profession is undergoing unprecedented transformation driven by technological advancements\, evolving stakeholder expectations\, increasing regulatory scrutiny\, and the growing complexity of business transactions. Auditors are expected not only to provide assurance on financial information but also to navigate emerging risks\, leverage technology effectively and uphold the highest standards of professional judgment and ethical conduct. \nGlobally\, audit regulators and standard setters continue to introduce reforms aimed at strengthening audit quality and restoring public confidence in the profession. Recent developments such as the International Standards on Quality Management (ISQM 1 and ISQM 2)\, revisions to risk assessment and auditing standards\, increased focus on sustainability reporting and assurance\, and the adoption of advanced data analytics tools are reshaping audit methodologies and engagement practices. \nIn Kenya\, auditors operate within an increasingly complex environment characterized by heightened regulatory expectations\, digital transformation\, evolving reporting requirements\, and growing concerns over fraud\, cybersecurity threats\, and financial reporting quality. Recent corporate failures and governance challenges have further reinforced the need for robust audit processes\, enhanced professional skepticism\, and continuous capacity building among audit professionals. \nAs organizations embrace digital technologies and face new business risks\, audit staff must develop competencies that extend beyond traditional audit approaches. Skills in data analytics\, risk assessment\, fraud detection\, audit quality management\, and sustainability assurance are becoming essential for delivering high-quality audits that meet stakeholder expectations. \nThe Audit Staff Training Programme seeks to equip audit professionals with practical knowledge and emerging skills necessary to enhance audit quality\, strengthen professional judgment\, improve risk identification\, and effectively respond to the evolving demands of the profession.

SUMMARY:Stress Management and resilience for professionals-webinar
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nStress Management and Resilience for Professionals Webinar\nTheme: Building Resilience for Sustainable Professional Performance and Well-being\nDate: 6th October 2026\nMode: Virtual\nTime: 4:00pm-6:00pm \nOverview \nToday’s professionals are operating in increasingly demanding environments shaped by evolving business models\, rapid technological change\, regulatory expectations\, tight deadlines\, and rising stakeholder demands. While these pressures can drive innovation and productivity\, they can also lead to prolonged stress\, burnout\, reduced performance\, and diminished well-being when not managed effectively. In this context\, stress management and resilience have become essential competencies for sustainable professional performance. \nStress is a natural response to workplace demands. However\, when it remains unmanaged\, it can affect physical health\, emotional well-being\, decision-making\, productivity\, and professional relationships. For accountants\, auditors\, finance professionals\, and business leaders who often work in high-pressure settings\, the ability to manage stress while maintaining sound professional judgment is critical. \nResilience enables professionals to adapt positively to challenges\, recover from setbacks\, and remain focused during periods of uncertainty and change. It goes beyond coping with pressure; it is the capacity to learn\, grow\, and thrive despite adversity. Resilient professionals demonstrate emotional intelligence\, adaptability\, optimism\, and effective problem-solving skills\, which strengthen leadership\, teamwork\, communication\, and overall organizational performance. \nCreating mentally healthy workplaces requires shared commitment from both individuals and organizations. Leaders play a key role in fostering supportive environments that promote open communication\, psychological safety\, work-life balance\, and proactive stress management. Organizations that invest in employee well-being and resilience benefit from stronger engagement\, reduced absenteeism\, improved collaboration\, and higher levels of innovation and performance. \nThis webinar will equip participants with practical knowledge and evidence-based strategies for managing workplace stress and building resilience in demanding professional environments. Through expert presentations\, practical exercises\, and interactive discussions\, participants will learn how to recognize stress indicators\, strengthen emotional resilience\, improve coping mechanisms\, and maintain performance while safeguarding their mental well-being. \nRecognizing that resilient professionals are better positioned to deliver high-quality services\, exercise sound judgment\, and lead effectively through change\, the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) has organized this webinar to support members in strengthening stress management\, resilience\, and personal well-being. The programme is designed to help professionals sustain long-term performance while contributing to healthier\, more productive\, and more resilient workplaces. \n Topics To Be Covered \n\n Understanding Workplace Stress\n\n\nCommon sources of stress in professional environments\nEffects of prolonged stress\, pressure\, and burnout\nEarly warning signs and indicators of stress\n\n\n Building Personal Resilience\n\n\nKey characteristics of resilient professionals\nDeveloping adaptability\, emotional resilience\, and optimism\nMaintaining focus and performance under pressure\n\n\n Practical Strategies for Managing Stress\n\n\nEffective time\, priority\, and workload management\nPractical coping techniques\, mindfulness\, and recovery practices\nMaintaining healthy boundaries and work-life balance\n\n\n Creating a Healthy Professional Lifestyle\n\n\nPromoting personal well-being and sustainable professional habits\nBuilding supportive workplace relationships and communication practices\nDeveloping a personal resilience action plan\, followed by Q&A\n\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:Sustainability Reporting Course (virtual option)
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nSustainability Reporting Course (virtual option)\nTheme: Advancing Sustainability Reporting: From Compliance to Value Creation\nDate: 8th -9th October  2026\nTime: 9.00am-3.30pm\nVenue: Virtual Delivery \nOverview \nHow can organizations effectively respond to growing stakeholder expectations for transparent\, reliable\, and decision-useful sustainability disclosures while meeting emerging global reporting requirements? \nSustainability reporting has rapidly evolved from a voluntary corporate responsibility exercise into a critical component of corporate governance\, risk management\, and strategic decision-making. Investors\, regulators\, lenders\, customers\, and other stakeholders increasingly require organizations to disclose how sustainability-related risks and opportunities affect their business model\, strategy\, financial performance\, and long-term value creation. \nThe global sustainability reporting landscape has undergone significant transformation following the establishment of the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) and the issuance of IFRS S1 General Requirements for Disclosure of Sustainability-related Financial Information and IFRS S2 Climate-related Disclosures. These standards establish a global baseline for sustainability-related financial disclosures and are increasingly influencing reporting expectations across jurisdictions\, industries\, and capital markets. \nOrganizations are now expected to go beyond broad sustainability narratives by demonstrating strong governance\, effective risk management\, measurable performance\, and credible climate-related disclosures. This includes identifying\, measuring\, and reporting greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions\, climate-related risks and opportunities\, sustainability metrics\, and transition plans. As a result\, organizations must strengthen their reporting capabilities\, data management processes\, internal controls\, and readiness for assurance. \nProfessional accountants are at the centre of this transformation. Their expertise in reporting\, governance\, assurance\, internal controls\, performance measurement\, and risk management positions them to play a critical role in the implementation of sustainability reporting frameworks and standards. As organizations increasingly integrate sustainability considerations into business strategy and decision-making\, accountants must develop the practical competencies required to prepare\, review\, and support sustainability disclosures. \nIn line with its mandate to promote high standards of professional competence and support the accountancy profession\, ICPAK has organized this course to equip participants with practical knowledge and implementation skills in sustainability reporting. The training will provide guidance on applying IFRS S1 and IFRS S2 requirements\, conducting materiality assessments\, measuring and reporting greenhouse gas emissions\, developing sustainability disclosures\, establishing sustainability metrics and targets\, strengthening sustainability data governance\, and preparing organizations for sustainability assurance requirements. \nKey Topics     \n\n\n\nDAY\nMODULE\nTOPICS\n\n\n\n\nDAY 1\nA.   Understanding and Implementing IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards\n·         Overview of the ISSB Sustainability Disclosure Framework \n·         IFRS S1 – General Requirements for Disclosure of Sustainability-related Financial Information \n·         IFRS S2 – Climate-related Disclosures \n·         Sustainability-related risks and opportunities \n·         Integration of sustainability reporting with financial reporting \n·         Governance responsibilities for sustainability reporting \n \n\n\nB.   Materiality Assessment and Sustainability Risk Identification\n·         Principles of sustainability materiality assessment \n·         Identifying sustainability-related risks and opportunities \n·         Stakeholder engagement and value chain considerations \n·         Risk and opportunity assessment methodologies \n·         Documentation and evidence requirements \n·         Integrating sustainability considerations into enterprise risk management \n \n\n\nC.   Climate Reporting and Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions\n·         Climate-related disclosure requirements under IFRS S2 \n·         Understanding greenhouse gas emissions \n·         Scope 1 emissions \n·         Scope 2 emissions \n·         Scope 3 emissions \n·         GHG Protocol principles and reporting considerations \n·         Measuring\, calculating\, and reporting GHG emissions \n·         Common implementation challenges and practical solutions\n\n\nDAY 2\nD.   Sustainability Metrics\, Targets\, and Data Management\n·         Sustainability metrics and performance indicators \n·         Climate-related metrics and targets \n·         Sustainability data collection and management systems \n·         Internal controls over sustainability information \n·         Data governance and data quality management \n·         Monitoring and evaluating sustainability performance\n\n\nE.     Developing Sustainability Disclosures and Reports\n·         Governance disclosures \n·         Strategy disclosures \n·         Risk management disclosures \n·         Metrics and targets disclosures \n·         Preparing IFRS S1 and IFRS S2 aligned sustainability reports \n·         Common reporting challenges and how to address them \n·         Practical case studies and reporting exercises \n \n\n\nF.   Sustainability Assurance and Emerging Developments\n·         Sustainability assurance landscape \n·         Limited versus reasonable assurance \n·         Internal audit and sustainability reporting \n·         Greenwashing risks and reporting integrity \n·         Emerging sustainability reporting trends \n·         Future developments in sustainability disclosures and regulation \n \n\n\n\n Target 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:International Non-Profit Accounting Standards (INPAS)-webinar
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nInternational Non-Profit Accounting Standards (INPAS)-webinar\nDate: 13th October 2026\nTime: 04.00pm-06.00pm\nVenue: Virtual Delivery \nOverview \nThe International Non-Profit Accounting Standard (INPAS) represents a landmark development in financial reporting for the non-profit sector. Launched in October 2025 as the first globally recognized accounting standard specifically designed for non-profit organizations (NPOs)\, INPAS provides a unified\, accrual-based framework tailored to the unique characteristics of nonprofits. Unlike traditional standards such as IFRS or national GAAP\, which primarily serve for-profit entities\, INPAS addresses sector-specific challenges including diverse funding sources\, donor restrictions\, and grant reporting. It emerged from the International Financial Reporting for Non-Profit Organisations (IFR4NPO) project\, led by CIPFA and Humentum\, following extensive global consultations over six years involving stakeholders from more than 40 countries. \nINPAS is built upon the foundation of the IFRS for SMEs Accounting Standard\, adapting and extending it to better reflect non-profit realities. It applies to small\, medium\, and large NPOs that use accrual accounting\, offering guidance for preparing whole-of-entity financial statements that meet the needs of a wide range of users\, including donors\, regulators\, and beneficiaries. The standard emphasizes producing transparent\, credible\, and comparable financial reports while reducing inconsistencies that arise when NPOs apply multiple or mismatched frameworks across jurisdictions and funders. \nA core objective of INPAS is to enhance transparency\, accountability\, and trust in non-profit finances worldwide. It tackles long-standing issues such as the recognition and measurement of grants and donations\, the clear distinction and presentation of restricted versus unrestricted funds\, and the integration of meaningful narrative reporting alongside financial data. By providing specific rules for these areas\, INPAS helps ensure that financial statements deliver decision-useful information\, enabling stakeholders to better understand an organization’s resource allocation\, performance\, and compliance with donor intentions. \nThe standard covers comprehensive recognition\, measurement\, presentation\, and disclosure requirements customized to non-profit activities and funding models. It includes a Practice Guide for harmonized grant reporting\, which aims to streamline compliance across different funders and significantly reduce the administrative burden on NPOs that previously faced duplicative or conflicting reporting demands. This harmonization is expected to improve efficiency\, cut compliance costs\, and foster greater consistency in how financial information is communicated globally. \nINPAS promotes comparability across borders and organizations\, allowing donors\, governments\, and the public to more reliably assess and compare non-profits regardless of location or size. ICPAK has endorsed the use of the standards and early uptake is anticipated to build credibility and support informed decision-making. The standard’s standalone nature means NPOs can apply it independently\, though publicly accountable entities must make appropriate disclosures if choosing INPAS over full IFRS. \nOverall\, INPAS marks the non-profit sector’s alignment with the kind of standardized\, high-quality financial reporting long available to for-profit entities. By establishing a single\, sector-dedicated benchmark\, it seeks to strengthen donor confidence\, facilitate cross-border operations\, and ultimately contribute to more effective and trustworthy non-profit work worldwide. As implementation progresses\, ongoing guidance and resources from the International Non-Profit Reporting Foundation (INPRF) will support the transition for organizations adopting the standard. Join us for this webinar to get more insights on the standard. \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. Charges will cater for online video access fees\, learning materials\, and e-certificates of attendance. \nOnline Booking \nRegistration: Delegates are reminded to note that online booking for the workshop is mandatory on https://www.icpak.com/event-registration/Online Booking \nWe call on interested participants to note that booking for the event is available online at www.icpak.com  and will close two hours before the training session. \nNational Industrial Training Authority (NITA) Reimbursement \nThe Institute is registered as a trainer with National Industrial Training Authority.

SUMMARY:AML and CFT Audit webinar
DESCRIPTION:NSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nAML and CFT Audit webinar\nDate: 3rd November  2026\nTime: 04.00pm-06.00pm\nDelivery Mode: Virtual \nOverview \nConducting an Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (CFT) audit is a critical process for auditors\, financial institutions\, regulated entities and other designated professionals to ensure compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. These audits evaluate the effectiveness of an organization’s policies\, procedures\, and controls designed to detect\, prevent\, and report money laundering and terrorist financing activities. Auditors assess whether the institution maintains a robust risk-based approach\, adhering to standards set by bodies such as the Financial Action Task Force (FATF)\, local regulators\, and international guidelines. The primary goal is to identify weaknesses that could expose the organization to financial crime risks\, reputational damage\, or regulatory penalties. Successful audits require a combination of technical expertise\, independence\, and a thorough understanding of evolving threats in the global financial ecosystem. \nThe planning phase sets the foundation for a successful AML/CFT audit. Auditors begin by defining the scope\, objectives\, and timeline\, considering factors like the institution’s size\, customer base\, product offerings\, and geographic operations. A comprehensive risk assessment is conducted to prioritize high-risk areas\, such as correspondent banking\, trade finance\, or dealings with high-risk jurisdictions. Documentation review includes examining the AML/CFT policy framework\, customer due diligence (CDD) procedures\, and transaction monitoring systems. Engagement with key stakeholders\, including compliance officers and senior management\, helps align expectations and gather preliminary insights. Proper planning ensures resources are allocated efficiently and that the audit remains focused on material risks. \nRisk assessment forms the core of the audit methodology. Auditors evaluate the institution’s enterprise-wide risk assessment to determine if it accurately identifies\, measures\, and mitigates AML/CFT exposures. This involves analysing customer risk profiles\, enhanced due diligence (EDD) for politically exposed persons (PEPs)\, and sanctions screening processes. Data analytics tools are often employed to review transaction patterns\, flag suspicious activities\, and test the effectiveness of automated monitoring systems. Qualitative factors\, such as staff training programs and the “tone from the top” in fostering a culture of compliance\, are also scrutinized. Any gaps in risk identification can indicate systemic vulnerabilities that require immediate attention. \nFieldwork and testing procedures involve detailed examination of controls and operations. Auditors perform walkthroughs of key processes\, sample testing of customer files for proper KYC (Know Your Customer) documentation\, and validation of suspicious activity report (SAR) filings. Independent testing of transaction monitoring rules helps verify detection accuracy and false positive rates. Interviews with frontline staff and compliance teams reveal practical implementation challenges. Technology audits may include assessing the reliability of core banking systems and data integrity. These hands-on activities ensure that theoretical policies translate into effective day-to-day practices. \nEvaluation of findings focuses on the adequacy and effectiveness of the AML/CFT program. Auditors rate controls as effective\, partially effective\, or ineffective based on evidence gathered. Common deficiencies include inadequate customer identification\, weak ongoing monitoring\, or insufficient independent testing of the compliance function. Root cause analysis is performed to understand underlying issues\, such as resource constraints or outdated technology. The audit team also benchmarks the institution against industry best practices and regulatory expectations\, providing a holistic view of compliance maturity. This step is crucial for prioritizing remediation efforts. \nThe reporting and follow-up stage closes the audit cycle with actionable recommendations. A clear\, well-structured report is delivered to management and the board\, highlighting strengths\, weaknesses\, and prioritized remedial actions with timelines. Follow-up mechanisms ensure that agreed-upon corrective measures are implemented and tested in subsequent reviews. Continuous monitoring and periodic re-audits help adapt to emerging risks\, such as those posed by new technologies like cryptocurrencies or virtual assets. Ultimately\, a well-conducted AML/CFT audit strengthens the organization’s defenses\, promotes regulatory adherence\, and contributes to the broader fight against financial crime. \nTarget Audience: \nThe webinar will be useful to accountants\, auditors\, academia\, and other designated professionals interested AML and CFT audit \n Continuous 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:THE 43RD ANNUAL SEMINAR EDITION 2 (virtual option)
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountant Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nTHE 43RD ANNUAL SEMINAR EDITION 2\nTheme: Advancing Trust & Credibility in a changing World\nHYBRID EVENT: PRIDE INN PARADISE HOTEL\, / TEMBO INTERNATIONAL CONVENTION CENTRE\, (PRIDE INN FLAMINGO) MOMBASA AND VIRTUAL\nDATES: MONDAY 9TH TO FRIDAY 13TH NOVEMBER 2026\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. \nThe 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 1500 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  \nFor over four decades\, the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) has sustained a strong tradition of convening its members annually to reflect on the evolving accountancy profession and emerging issues shaping the national\, regional and global landscape. Since the inaugural Annual Seminar held in 1984\, the forum has grown into the Institute’s flagship professional development event\, symbolizing resilience\, unity and the profession’s unwavering commitment to the public interest. \nThis edition aims to discuss how trust and credibility remain fundamental to the functioning of economies\, institutions\, organisations and societies. In an increasingly complex and rapidly changing world\, the ability of institutions and professionals to earn\, maintain and restore trust is becoming more important than ever. The global environment is being shaped by economic uncertainty\, technological disruption\, changing patterns of work\, sustainability challenges\, geopolitical developments and increasing demands for transparency and accountability. These changes are reshaping how governments\, businesses and professional institutions operate and how citizens and stakeholders assess their credibility. \nFor Kenya\, these developments come at a particularly important time. The country continues to pursue economic transformation while navigating fiscal pressures\, public debt\, changing global economic conditions\, institutional challenges and the need for sustainable and inclusive growth. At the same time\, organisations are under increasing pressure to demonstrate not only financial performance\, but also responsible leadership\, sustainability\, resilience and long-term value creation. Against this backdrop\, the accountancy profession has a critical role to play. Accountants and other professionals are entrusted with financial information\, public resources\, organisational decision-making and the assurance of credibility. Their responsibility therefore extends beyond technical compliance to include professional integrity\, ethical leadership\, accountability and the protection of the public interest. \nThe 43rd ICPAK Annual Seminar – Edition II therefore seeks to provide a high-level platform for professionals\, policymakers\, government leaders\, business leaders\, international organisations and other stakeholders to examine the changing nature of trust and credibility and the role of professionals in shaping Kenya’s future. \n\n\n\nDate\nTheme\nTopics\n\n\nDay One: \nMonday 9th Nov 2026\nArrival & Registration \nNetworking\n\n\nDay Two: \nTuesday 10th Nov 2026\nTrust\, Ethics & Leadership\n1.       The Role of Professionals in Safeguarding Public Trust \n2.       Ethical Leadership: Accountability\, Integrity and the Choices we Make \n3.       Public Finance\, Accountability and the Cost of Trust Deficits \n4.       From Professional to Nation Builder: The Responsibility of the Accountancy Profession\n\n\nDay Three: \nWednesday 11th Nov 2026\nNational Leadership & Governance\n1.       Leadership in a Changing World: Rebuilding Public Trust and Confidence in Institutions \n2.       Policy and Public Value: Bridging the Gap Between Policies and Economic Realities \n3.       From Policy to Prosperity: What Must Kenya Do Differently to Unlock Sustainable Economic Growth? \n4.       The Leadership Imperative: Ethics\, Accountability and the Future of Public Institutions \n5.       Devolution at the Crossroads: Are Counties Delivering Value to Citizens?\n\n\nDay Four: \nThursday 12th Nov 2026\nSustainability\, Technology & The Future Accountant \n1.       Building Organizations That Matter: Sustainability\, Purpose and Long-Term Value \n2.       Beyond Compliance: Why Sustainability Will Define the Competitiveness of Nations and Organizations \n3.       The Accountant of the Future: From Financial Stewardship to Value\, Trust and Sustainable Transformation \n4.       Technology\, Automation and the Changing Profession\n\n\nDay Five: \nFriday 13th Nov 2026\nPersonal Development \n1.       The Power of Wellbeing: Health\, Fitness and Wellness for a Thriving Professional Life\n\n\n\n  \nTARGET AUDIENCE: \nThis workshop will be useful to all professional Accountants and those aspiring to join the profession \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\, 6th November 2026 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 43rd Annual Seminar Edition 1. \nNATIONAL INDUSTRIAL TRAINING AUTHORITY (NITA) REIMBURSEMENT \nThe Institute is registered as a trainer with National Industrial Training Authority.

SUMMARY:ISA 220- Quality control for an audit of financial statements webinar
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nISA 220- Quality control for an audit of Financial Statements Webinar\nDate: 10th November  2026\nTime: 04.00pm-06.00pm\nDelivery Mode: Virtual \nOverview \nThe quality of an audit is fundamental to maintaining public trust in the accountancy profession and enhancing confidence in financial reporting. In an increasingly complex business environment characterized by evolving regulatory requirements\, technological advancements\, heightened stakeholder expectations\, and emerging risks\, audit firms and engagement teams are under greater pressure to consistently deliver high-quality audit engagements. \nRecognizing the need to strengthen audit quality\, the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (IAASB) introduced a new suite of quality management standards\, including International Standard on Auditing (ISA) 220\, Quality Management for an Audit of Financial Statements. The revised standard shifts the focus from traditional quality control procedures to a proactive and risk-based approach to quality management at the engagement level. \nISA 220 places greater responsibility on the engagement partner for managing and achieving quality throughout the audit engagement. The standard emphasizes leadership\, professional skepticism\, appropriate direction and supervision of engagement teams\, effective use of resources\, and ongoing evaluation of whether quality objectives are being achieved. It also aligns with International Standard on Quality Management ISQM 1 and ISQM 2\, creating a comprehensive framework for managing audit quality at both the firm and engagement levels. \nAs firms continue to implement quality management systems\, it is essential for engagement partners\, managers\, auditors\, and quality reviewers to understand their responsibilities under ISA 220 and how these requirements translate into practical actions throughout the audit lifecycle. Effective application of the standard contributes to improved audit execution\, stronger documentation\, enhanced professional judgment\, and greater confidence in audit opinions. \nThis webinar will provide participants with practical insights into the requirements of ISA 220 (Revised)\, the role of the engagement partner in achieving audit quality\, and best practices for embedding quality management into audit engagements across different jurisdictions and practice environments. \n\nUnderstanding the New Quality Management Framework\nCommon challenges and lessons learned in establishing effective quality management systems.\nInteraction between ISA 220 (Revised)\, ISQM 1\, and ISQM 2\nLeadership responsibilities for managing and achieving quality on audits\nFirms system of quality management and role of engagement teams\nRelevant ethical requirements\, including those related to independence\nRole and responsibilities of the engagement partner\nConsultation & documentation requirements\n\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:IPSAS Accrual webinar
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nIPSAS Accrual\nTheme: Enhancing Transparency and Accountability Through Effective Application of Accrual-Based IPSAS\nDate: 24th November 2026\nTime: 4:00-6:00pm\nDelivery Mode: Virtual \nOverview \nAccrual-based IPSAS strengthens public sector financial management by improving transparency\, accountability\, and decision-making. By recognizing assets\, liabilities\, revenues\, and expenses when they occur\, it provides a fuller and more accurate view of an entity’s financial position and performance. \nMoving to IPSAS Accrual is more than an accounting change; it reshapes how public sector organizations plan\, manage\, and report finances. It supports better cost analysis\, asset and liability management\, long-term planning\, and evidence-based policy and budgeting. \nDespite progress\, many entities still face challenges in recognition\, measurement\, asset management\, employee benefits\, revenue recognition\, disclosures\, and IPSAS-compliant reporting. Addressing these requires continuous professional development and strong knowledge of accrual principles and IPSAS updates. \nThe changing public financial management environment calls for greater consistency\, comparability\, and accountability in reporting. Effective IPSAS Accrual application improves stewardship\, audit outcomes\, compliance\, and public trust by ensuring financial information reflects the substance of transactions. \nThis webinar will offer practical insights into IPSAS Accrual principles\, including recognition\, measurement\, presentation\, and disclosure requirements. Through examples\, discussions\, and case scenarios\, participants will explore common challenges and practical ways to improve public sector reporting. \nICPAK has organized this webinar to equip members with practical knowledge and current developments in IPSAS Accrual\, strengthening technical competence and supporting consistent application for transparency\, accountability\, and effective stewardship of public resources. \nKey topics to be covered \n\n Introduction to IPSAS Accrual\n\n\nPrinciples of accrual accounting\nBenefits of IPSAS Accrual\nCurrent implementation developments\n\n\n Key Recognition and Measurement Requirements\n\n\nRecognition of assets and liabilities\nRevenue and expense recognition\nPractical examples\n\n\n Preparing IPSAS-Compliant Financial Statements\n\n\nPresentation and disclosure requirements\nCommon implementation challenges\nGood reporting practices\n\n\n Practical Implementation Insights\n\n\nLessons learned from IPSAS implementation\nEmerging developments\nInteractive discussion and participant questions\n\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:Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants webinar
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nCode of Ethics for Professional Accountants webinar\nDate: 2nd December 2026\nTime: 02.00pm-04.00pm\nDelivery Mode: Virtual \nOverview \nProfessional accountants are often confronted with ethical issues in discharging their mandate. These ethical issues emanate from interactions with both internal and external stakeholders of the organizations they work for. This is happening against a background of heightened unethical corporate behaviors and scandals at local and international levels. At the local level\, for example\, financial scandals involving large corporate entities have not only led to immense economic losses to the shareholders and owners but have also negatively impacted the economic growth of the country\, robbing future generations of crucial economic opportunities. \nIt is important to note that one profession that is often castigated and blamed whenever financial scandals are exposed to the public limelight is the accountancy profession. This is often because of the pivotal role accountants play in an economy. It therefore goes without saying that accountants are indeed custodians of public trust and are required to always conduct themselves ethically for them to win and maintain trust from their employers\, fellow employees\, and the public. \nIn view of the above-mentioned issues\, the Institute has organized a virtual webinar -Ethics for professional accountants.  During the webinar\, participants will be exposed to ICPAK’s professional code of ethics based on the IESBA Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants. The webinar will focus on the following topical areas: \n\nAn overview of ICPAK’s code of ethics\nPractical application of the principles of the code of ethics and threats to independence\nCurrent emerging ethical issues for accountants\n\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 webinar. \nFinancial Commitment:\nThe workshop charges are Kshs. 1\,000. Charges will cater for the webinar fees\, learning materials\, and e-certificates of attendance. \nOnline Booking:\nRegistration: Delegates are reminded to note that online booking for the webinar is mandatory on  We call on workshop participants to note that booking is available only online at www.icpak.com and will close one day before the training session. Delegates are reminded to note that online booking for the training is mandatory. \nNational Industrial Training Authority (NITA) Reimbursement:\nThe Institute is registered as a trainer with National Industrial Training Authority.

In particular\, the Award recognizes the growing importance of implementing the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS Accounting Standards) and the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) Standards\, including IFRS S1 and IFRS S2. \nThe Award is founded on four strategic objectives: \n\nPromoting excellence in financial and sustainability reporting;\nStrengthening corporate governance\, accountability\, and ethical business practices;\nEnhancing transparency and comparability to support informed investment decisions; and\nEncouraging organizations to create long-term value through sustainable business practices.\n\nThe FiRe Award Conference provides a platform for preparers\, regulators\, investors\, governance professionals\, academics\, and other stakeholders to discuss emerging developments in corporate reporting and share practical experiences in implementing international reporting standards. \nThe Award Ceremony will celebrate organizations that have demonstrated excellence in reporting and recognize outstanding practices that contribute to improved corporate transparency\, accountability\, and stakeholder confidence. \nThe Award Ceremony will recognize the best performing entities in financial reporting while the Conference will focus on; \n\nFiRe Award 2026 Evaluation Findings – Emerging reporting trends and insights from the judges.\nPreparing for Mandatory Sustainability Reporting – Lessons from the adoption of IFRS S1 and IFRS S2 and readiness for evolving sustainability reporting requirements.\n\n\nDigital Transformation in Corporate Reporting – Leveraging technology\, data analytics\, artificial intelligence\, and digital reporting to improve reporting quality.\n\n\nImproving efficiency in the Public Sector through Financial Reporting\nAccrual reporting – Critical milestones achieved from the first year of transition\nPast winners’ experience: The benefits of quality financial reporting in the East African region\n\nMembers of ICPAK and reciprocating professional bodies will be awarded 7 CPD Units for attending the both the Conference and the Award Ceremony. \nTarget Audience: \nPrivate and 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\, Auditors\, Practitioners\, Tax Practitioners\, Professionals working in County Governments and private sectors\, Academia\, employees of the NPO Sector and the wider pool of professional stakeholders. \nCost: \nCharges for the events and accompanying links are indicated below; \n\nFiRe Award physical conference cost – KShs. 10\,000\, 7 CPD Points\n\nhttps://www.icpak.com/event/fire-award-2026-conference-physical-option/ \n\nFiRe Award Ceremony and gala dinner cost – KShs. 9\,000\n\nhttps://www.icpak.com/event/fire-award-2026-ceremony-and-gala-dinner-physical-option/ \n\nFiRe Award conference virtual attendance cost – KShs. 4\,500\, 7 CPD Points\n\nhttps://www.icpak.com/event/fire-award-2026-conference-virtual-option/ \n\nFiRe Award Ceremony and gala dinner virtual attendance cost – KShs. 4\,500\n\nhttps://www.icpak.com/event/fire-award-2026-ceremony-and-gala-dinner-virtual-option/ \nThe charges will cover the facilitation fees\, materials\, and e-certificates of attendance. \nOnline Booking: \nWe call upon all event participants to note that booking for the conference/gala dinner is only available online and will close two hours before the events.  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:Leadership by Design- Practical Tips for New Managers and Supervisors
DESCRIPTION:INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nLeadership by Design- Practical Tips for New Managers and Supervisors\nDate: 8th December  2026\nTime: 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM\nDelivery Mode: Virtual \nOverview \nLeadership by design is the deliberate practice of shaping your leadership approach with intention rather than allowing it to emerge reactively from daily pressures. For new managers\, this means treating leadership as a craft you actively engineer—defining your values\, systems\, and behaviours upfront. Leaders start by conducting a personal audit: reflect on your strengths\, past experiences\, and the kind of leader you want to become. This foundational clarity prevents you from defaulting to old habits or mimicking ineffective bosses\, creating a consistent leadership identity from day one. \nOne practical tip is to design clear structures for goal setting and accountability. New managers often struggle with ambiguity\, so implement weekly one-on-ones and quarterly engagements tailored to your team. Use simple templates to align individual tasks with broader team objectives and make progress visible through shared dashboards or boards. By designing these rhythms early\, you foster predictability and momentum. This system not only drives results but also signals to your team that leadership is thoughtful and organized\, building trust faster than sporadic check-ins ever could. \nEffective leadership by design prioritizes empowering others over micromanaging. Delegate meaningful responsibilities by mapping team members’ strengths and growth areas\, then create “ownership charters” that outline decision rights and success metrics for each role. Schedule regular calibration meetings to review what’s working without hovering. This approach frees you to focus on strategic work while developing your people. New managers who design delegation frameworks report higher team engagement and fewer bottlenecks\, turning potential chaos into scalable performance. \nCommunication is another area ripe for intentional design. Establish a feedback culture through structured engagements while granting room for feedback on self. Design your availability—such as office hours or response-time SLAs—to model balance and accessibility. New managers should also practice radical candour in private while celebrating wins publicly. These designed touchpoints reduce misunderstandings and create psychological safety\, essential for high-performing teams. \nFinally\, build adaptability into your leadership system through continuous learning loops. Set aside time each month for personal reflection\, peer mentoring\, or skill-building courses amongst other avenues. Treat failures as design experiments: analyse what broke\, iterate on your approach\, and document lessons. For new managers\, this meta-habit prevents stagnation and demonstrates humility. Leadership by design is never static—it evolves with evidence\, ensuring you grow alongside your team while delivering sustainable results. \nTARGET AUDIENCE \nThis webinar will be useful for new managers and supervisors from all professions who aim to enhance their individual and team leadership skills.  \n CPD 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. Please note that this is applicable for Kenyan citizens only and subject to NITA regulations. Remember that to qualify you should apply to NITA for approval prior to the date of the conference.
