    Join us for an insightful in-person session on ISQM 1, bringing together practitioners and representatives from the Accountancy Board for a practical and informative discussion. This session is designed to go back to basics, beginning with a clear overview and explanation of ISQM 1, followed by guidance on the expectations of the Accountancy Board and what practitioners are expected to demonstrate in practice. Key risks and common areas of concern will also be explored in detail. The session will conclude with an engaging panel discussion, where a series of pre-determined questions will be addressed by the panelists to provide further clarity and practical insight.
