This AICPA certificate program will teach you how to understand, apply, and explain fundamental concepts and principles of IFRS across a broad range of accounting standards.

 

Compete effectively in today's global business environment

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.

 

Why should Ukrainian experts in finance get to know IFRS?

For Ukrainian experts, IFRS proficiency and practical experience in applying them allow them to move up the career ladder faster or get a top-paying job in big international companies. IFRS proficiency will also come in handy when it comes to internal audit.

Another reason is that foreign investment into Ukraine is expected to increase after the victory. The companies will enter global markets and there will be a need to adopt IFRS accounting.

In any case, IFRS is becoming not just a universal financial language, but also a prerequisite for the successful development of business, on the one hand, and a career in finance, on the other.
