in partnership with ICAEW

The Certificate in International Public Sector Financial Reporting
(Cert IPSFR) is a new e-learning programme developed by CIPFA and the ICAEW. It is a unique public sector focused programme which will help you develop a fundamental understanding of both the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) and their public sector equivalents, International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSASs).

The programme will provide a practical insight into the divergences between the two sets of standards, as well as the different public and private sector reporting perspectives that drive these.

CIPFA and the ICAEW have combined their expertise, to ensure that those working in the public sector are prepared for the impact of these international reporting frameworks and are able to embed the changes adoption brings successfully.
