These courses are planned to deliver highly practical courses, emphasising the implementation of IFRS rather than simply looking at the technical rules.

Each course will consist of a short précis of the key rules followed by extensive practical case studies.

There are four programmes to choose from:

As with the programmes on International Financial Reporting, the emphasis in this programme is on dealing with practical issues.

The first programme will specifically concentrate on practical issues that are often raised during an audit. The following areas will be dealt with in detail:

· Analytical procedures

· Audit of accounting estimates

· Avoiding over/under auditing

Throughout the day there will be a combination of paper-based case studies, some role play and some instructor-led discussions.

The second programme will deal with the practical aspects of Group Audit. This is a new programme dealing with Group Audits in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. The course will concentrate on the requirements of ISA 600 and generally accepted best practice in Group Audits and on practical issues that are often raised during a group audit, from the perspective of both Group Auditors and Auditors of Subsidiaries. The course will also feature the use of the new Group Audit Protocol and related questionnaires. There will be a combination of paper based case studies and some instructor-led discussions.

The third programme introduces the new Clarity improved standards from the IAASB, which take effect for all audits of accounting periods ending on or after 15^th December 2009. We offer a specialised two day workshop on these new standards which can be arranged to suit your individual organisations requirements by contacting the number below.

In response to a number of requests, we are putting on a full suite of professional skills programmes to help staff to develop the skills that they will need to fully contribute to our practices.

There are three levels of programmes – designed to give staff progression over the years.
