Overview    

  The recent embarrassingly high wave of scandals in the accounting/auditing profession has now subsided. It however left a big dent in the public's perception of this noble profession.  

A positive from this episode however is that industry regulators and professional bodies have been prompted to relook regulatory and compliance matters with a view to limiting the recurrence of future scandals. The good reputation of this profession must be restored!  

In this webinar we focus on SARS, CIPC and IRBA. We will cover important announcements on current developments, rulings, compliance notices, judgments, inspection reports, and administrative notices that every accountant and auditor needs to be aware of so that they remain compliant.
