Course Overview

IFRS is fast becoming the global accounting standard across all industries. Like a stone dropped in a pond, the ripples of IFRS implementation are now being felt in every industry and every organisation around. Therefore, learning to apply these standards properly is no more a luxury but is a necessity for every accountant, auditor, financial analyst and financial professional these days.

The correct adoption of IFRS promises organisations many benefits including enhanced investor confidence, greater consistency and transparency of financial reporting as well as the ability to compare financial information from companies around the world. This course will ensure you are fully aware of all the recent developments in international accounting by offering complete information on how to
successfully implement IFRS in your organisation.
