Continuing Education Programme for November 2025: Forensic Auditing, IFRS & Digital Assets
Professional Development That Keeps You Current—And Compliant
The financial world moves faster than ever. Cryptocurrency is reshaping asset accounting. Sustainability reporting now dominates investor decisions. Fraud detection requires new investigative methods. And regulatory standards evolve annually.
Your qualification from 10 years ago? It's not enough anymore.
What You're Facing
You know the requirement: 30 hours of continuing professional development every year, or face a $200 fine and potential deregistration. But here's the real issue—compliance isn't the hard part. Staying genuinely current in a profession that's genuinely changing is.
Most CPD training teaches you what you already know. This program is different. It teaches you what's actually new.
Three Intensive Sessions. One Powerful Week.
SESSION 1: FORENSIC AUDITING (2 Days: December 8–9) Fraud isn't disappearing. It's evolving. Learn to detect manipulation across modern accounting systems, understand litigation-ready evidence standards, and strengthen controls that actually work. This isn't theoretical—it's investigative methodology you'll use.
- SIA Members: $150 | Non-Members: $250
SESSION 2: IFRS & AUDITING MASTERCLASS (2 Days: December 10–11) IFRS 9, 18, and 19 brought seismic changes to financial reporting. Add IFRS-S1 and S2 (sustainability reporting) and your compliance obligations just doubled. This isn't an update—it's a reckoning. We'll show you how to audit it, report it, and explain it to stakeholders who now care about what you used to ignore.
- SIA Members: $150 | Non-Members: $250
SESSION 3: IFRS 17, LESS COMPLEX ENTITIES & DIGITAL ASSETS (1 Day: December 12) Insurance accounting. SME accounting. Cryptocurrency. Blockchain. These aren't niche topics anymore—they're in your clients' financial statements. One day. Three critical areas. Practical, immediately applicable knowledge.
- SIA Members: $70 | Non-Members: $120
