Description: The objective of the workshop is to support the implementation of Framework-based teaching across a range of IFRS classes. To achieve this objective, leading IFRS teachers will demonstrate Framework-based teaching across a range of IFRS classes in both the CPA and the MBA streams. The workshop is also designed to illustrate how Framework-based teaching enhances the ability of students to exercise the judgements that are necessary to apply IFRSs and better prepares them to continuously update their IFRS knowledge and competencies in the context of life long learning. To achieve these objectives an expert in IFRS interpretation will demonstrate the role of the Conceptual Framework in applying IFRS. An update will also be provided on the joint IASB-FASB project to improve the Conceptual Framework.
