Introduction

International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) are the world’s most widely applied accounting standards. More than 140 countries now require or permit the use of IFRSs.

This five-day course provides a rigorous and detailed overview of all major technical IFRS requirements, and includes illustrative financial statements, case studies, examples, coverage of the most significant IFRSs, and interactive participation from the delegates.
