All professionals using, applying and enforcing the Code are warmly invited to attend

Feb 25, 2019 | New York, New York | English

The International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants® (IESBA®) is pleased to announce two 90-minute webinars supporting the roll-out of the International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) (the Code).

To join one of the two webinars, any professional using, applying and enforcing the Code should click the link on their preferred date below to register:

  • Thursday March 28, 2019 at 7:00 AM EST
  • Wednesday April 17, 2019 at 10:00 AM EST

During the webinar, the IESBA representatives will explain the Code’s new structure; and the substantive revisions, including to the conceptual framework and provisions relating to inducements, including gifts and hospitality; pressure; and preparing and presenting information. The webinar will also touch on the new Non-compliance with Laws and Regulation (NOCLAR) and  revised Long Association provisions which are already effective; as well as the IESBA’s e-Code initiative.

Effective mid-June 2019, the Code reinforces professional accountants’ responsibility to comply with the five fundamental principles of ethics and emphasizes the International Independence Standards that apply in performing audits, reviews and other assurance engagements.

More information about the Code is available at the IESBA’s website.
