Continuous development of knowledge and
expertise is a fact of life in today's world.
Why MCPE?

It becomes obsolete with the passage of time
It has to be re-affirmed, unlearned, re-learnt and practised at all times
Skill renewal through continuous formal training is, therefore, inevitable

INTRODUCTION
REVIEW OF 2017 PROGRAMME
The concept of Mandatory Continuing Professional Education (MCPE) was introduced in 1995 by the International Federation of Accountants (IFAC) with the aim of capturing today's global knowledge base. The Institute subsequently adopted the scheme in 1996 with a view to deploying appropriate knowledge with skills and technologies to its members in line with IFAC objective. With the world becoming a global village, ICAN has extended her training beyond the shores of Chartered Accountants to include all that need skill and knowledge improvement.
The review carried out to make seminars relevant and meet the needs of members and users of our training services was quite rewarding. This was attested to by the wide acceptance and high turn-out of participants at the newly introduced Entrepreneurship and Agricultural Sectors programmes. These topics came at a time when Chartered Accountants desired diversification to moderate the effect of economic recession.
In all, a total of ninety (90) seminars were conducted successfully in twenty (20) locations across the country.
MCPE has been a sustained
clinical rejuvenation of accountants for
constituent value addition (MB No. 6503)
MCPE enlarged my horizon in various aspects
of my endeavour (MB No. 8138)
My firm has greatly been improved, reorganised for
better service delivery through MCPE
(MB No. 8166)

SUMMARY OF ATTENDANCE AT SEMINARS, WORKSHOPS, CONFERENCES, MEETINGS, ETC, FOR 2017/2016
THRUST OF 2018 MCPE PROGRAMMES
The training to be offered in 2018 is the result of comprehensive analysis of feedback and the continually changing world space where we operate. The list is designed to ensure that every course offered addresses the needs of our members, responds to markets trends and fill the knowledge gaps.
The training courses have therefore been expanded to cater for the needs of our target audience. Two broad industry sectors were created with sub-sectors: (1) Extractive Industry Sector ( Mining, Oil & Gas) and (2) Financial Services Sector (Banking, Capital Market, Insurance and Islamic Finance). Also for inclusiveness, the following new sectors were included in the training programme for 2018: Accounting for Agriculture/Mining/Not–for-Profit Organisations; Collaboration with Professional Associations/ Organisations; Governance & Politics, Happiness & Positivity and E-Learning Sectors.
We are also partnering with organisations on In-house programme that is designed to directly address peculiar business and work challenges. The in-house training is for appropriate group size, has the benefits of flexibility and cost effectivesness.
The principal benefits of MCPE are as follows:
?Provide the knowledge, skills, values, ethics and attributes required for life-long learning with focus on outcomes.
?Help participants identify areas of development which are relevant to and support their careers
from members
Energy,
10
?Provide effective skill renewal through continuous formal training
?Provide the avenue for continuous update of technical and soft skills of Chartered Accountants
?Enhance the productivity, efficiency and social responsiveness of participants
?Re-assure employers and the public that members keep themselves abreast of current developments and employ an ethical approach to their duties
?Facilitate access, monitor and ensure relevant, measurable and verifiable compulsory professional development activities
?Provide particpants with an accessible range of services that will help them maintain and develop their expertise
?Provide members with veritable networking opportunities
?Provide members opportunity to comply with IFAC SMO 2/IES 7 on Continuing Professional Development to retain status as Chartered Accountants
To sustain these benefits, each course has been designed to generate in-depth, highly interactive and practical sessions to cater for members' professional needs.
MCPE trainings are highly educative, innovative
and enhance best professional practices
(MB No. 11621)
MCPE is a nice way to “sharpen the saw”and
remain relevant in knowledge world (MB No. 8894)
MCPE has encouraged me to study more to be in line
with current trend(MB No. 9733)
