Will your interpretation of the new regulations stand up to scrutiny?

Compared to existing UK GAAP, FRS 102 removes 90% of content. In some ways this is good, but it involves you exercising more professional judgment because there is less guidance to follow and more situations where you have to look beyond FRS 102 to identify appropriate treatments.

This course will help you to create a robust application of FRS 102 within your organization and will allow you to focus on what policies you need to set up in order to for your organization to successfully adopt FRS 102.
