Course 1855: Grant Thornton IFRS for Audit Committees (half-day)
Duration: 0.5 day
The fundamental purpose of an audit committee is to oversee the integrity of annual and interim financial reporting. In accordance with NI 52-110, audit committee members must be financially literate, which means they are able to read and understand the company’s financial statements. Venture issuers are exempt from these requirements but are still required to disclose whether each audit committee member is financially literate.
This half-day workshop is designed to assist audit committee members in meeting the financial literacy requirements of NI 52-110 by helping them to understand the accounting policies that might be applied under IFRS. It is also designed to assist audit committees in fulfilling their oversight responsibilities in relation to the conversion from Canadian GAAP to IFRS. With a specific focus on Canadian public companies, the course will cover areas of concern to audit committees, including significant differences between Canadian GAAP and IFRS, accounting policy choices available under IFRS and other decisions required when adopting IFRS.
Although this course has been specifically developed for audit committee members, it would also be of benefit to other directors, executives, senior operations personnel, internal auditors, investor relations personnel, corporate secretaries and in-house legal counsel.
