International Financial Reporting Standards

As of January 2005, companies listed on stock exchanges in EU states have to present their group financial statements under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

If you work in the finance or accounting department of such a company, we would like to invite you to take a 12-day comprehensive training programme: “Application of IFRS”. The course covers the existing International Accounting Standards (IAS) and the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued so far, including their interpretations up to IFRS 16.

The program is composed of four modules with about three weeks’ break between the course days. During the time between courses participants are expected to study at home in their own time and complete practice tests (available online). An e-mail hotline is available to facilitate contact with the tutor if any problems or questions regarding homework assignments should arise.

The programme finishes with an exam which, when passed, entitles participants to receive an EY Academy of Business diploma.

Our courses fulfil the requirements of the professional development schemes of international professional bodies such as: ACCA, IIA, PMI®, etc.

Should you have any questions, contact our consultant.
