Product information

Overview

The International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), issued by the International Accounting Standard Board (IASB), are becoming the global accounting standard for how companies prepare financial statements.

Progress toward a set of global accounting standards is no longer a goal of the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), it is a reality, as many of the world’s largest capital markets require or permit the use of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Over 125 countries require publicly traded companies to apply IFRS, while many other jurisdictions permit the use of IFRS in some circumstances.

The IFRS Certificate Programme gives participants the skills to compete effectively in today’s global business environment. A grounding in IFRS will distinguish participants from other accounting and finance professionals and expand their global career opportunities.
