Overview

SPEAKER: HERMIEN BONTHUYS

Preparers under FRSSE are required to adopt either FRS 102 with Section 1A (for small entities) or FRS 105 (for micro entities) for financial years starting on/after 1 January 2016. Early adoption of these frameworks is allowed, which is of great benefit to entities as there is then no need to adopt FRSSE 2015 as an in-between GAAP. This course is therefore of significant relevance to small entities adopting FRS 102 Section 1A. The course covers FRS 102 (including Section 1A) requirements and changes from ‘old UK GAAP’ in depth – supplemented by illustrative examples and exercises throughout.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
