Smaller public companies are now required to comply with the management assertion requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

This seminar is for audit partners and audit professionals who will be conducting these SOX audits. (8 Hours CPE).

Yellow Book CPE Focused Training Seminars

Our seminars contain practical advice gleaned from highly experienced Yellow Book assurance and audit professionals.

The GAO's Yellow Book, Government Auditing Standards, lays down certain CPE requirements. Auditors performing work under GAGAS, including planning, directing, performing field work, or reporting on an audit or attestation engagement under GAGAS, need to maintain their professional competence through continuing professional education (CPE). Therefore, each auditor performing work under GAGAS should complete, every two years, at least 80 hours of CPE that directly enhance the auditor's professional proficiency to perform audits and/or attestation engagements. At least 24 of the 80 hours of CPE should be in subjects directly related to government auditing, the government environment, or the specific or unique environment in which the audited entity operates. At least 20 hours of the 80 should be completed in any one year of the two-year period. For details on the Yellow Book CPE requirements go to Government Auditing Standards - Guidance on GAGAS Requirements for CPE.
