[CAFR-Contacts-News] Reminder: Training opportunity May 2nd Clarifying the Clarity Standards - Part 2

[ROSS Kathryn * SCD SARS]

The State Controller's Division (SCD) will host the webinar "Clarifying
the Clarity Standards: Group Audits" sponsored by NASACT, in conjunction
with the Association of Government Accountants and the Association of
Local Government Auditors.

The purpose of this webinar is to help understand the new requirements
and guidance for group audits contained in the Statement on Auditing
Standards No. 122, Statements on Auditing Standards: Clarification and
Recodification. 

This standard changes the focus in audits that involve the work of
another auditor from "the coverage by each auditor" to "the extent of
the involvement of the group engagement partner" (formerly referred to
as the "principal auditor")  

This webinar provides:

*         An overview on planning, testing and reporting considerations
for group audits, both as a group auditor and a component auditor.

*         A determination as to whether an audit is a group audit. 

*         A discussion on the appropriate application of auditing and
reporting guidance relative to governmental opinion units and
multi-location audits.  

Throughout the webinar, specific application to government auditors will
be provided.

Join Randy C. Roberts, professional practice director for the Arizona
Office of the Auditor General, and Jeff Markert, partner, Department of
Professional Practice, KPMG, for this informative two-hour training
session.  At the conclusion of the presentation, you will be provided an
opportunity to ask questions live.
