Programme Overview > Course Objective

The Indian government has announced its commitment to converge the Indian Accounting Standards (IAS) with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) by April 2011. While some of the India’s blue chip companies have already begun to align their accounting standards to the IFRS, three years ahead of the mandatory time for the switch over, others are in the process of convergence / adoption.

Consequently, a Certification Course on IFRS is being conducted by the ICAI with sufficient Classroom Training and E-learning Facility to make the members competent in this era of IFRS. The participants are expected to achieve a clear conceptual understanding of the IFRS and possess sufficient knowledge expected out of an expert.
