This intensive three-day CPE course will provide an in-depth understanding of the differences between International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and US GAAP and what's required to reconcile those differences..

The course is designed for financial executives of U.S. subsidiaries of foreign companies, as well as individuals from U.S. companies who own foreign subs that are subject to IASB rules.

The 2007 and 2008 IFRS vs. US GAAP sessions have been filled to capacity.  The programs are considered highly successful and extremely valuable, earning excellent marks from attendees for both the extent of the topics covered and the practical knowledge of the presenters.

The 2008-2009 program has been expanded to three days to give additional time to thoroughly cover those topics of primary interest to participants.

Lecture sessions are supplemented by problem solving and case discussion to strengthen and reinforce your understanding of the topics.

In addition sufficient time has been set aside to consider your questions. If you are looking for an excellent resource to obtain an understanding of the differences between US GAAP and IFRS and the implications of those differences, you should plan now to attend.  Register early to avoid disappointment!
