Description
This comprehensive course provides the critical updates governmental accountants and auditors need to stay informed. We'll begin with a review of recent GASB standards, including compensated absences, asset disclosures, risk and uncertainty disclosures, and financial reporting model improvements. Participants will also gain insights into GASB's current projects, exposure drafts, and agenda progress to ensure they are up to date on what's ahead. For auditors, we'll cover key changes to governmental auditing standards, including the 2024 Yellow Book updates, the transition from quality control to quality management, and implementation timelines, with early adoption options. Single Audit updates will include the 2024 Uniform Guidance changes, the 2025 Compliance Supplement, GAO reports on improper payments and government fraud, the Financial Data Transparency Act (FDTA), and recent Department of Education guidance on related parties.
