PwC’s Academy 26
IFRS Update Training’s Agenda
The duration of this course is totaling 12 hours (1.5 days)and it includes the following topics:
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments
IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments is effective for annual periods beginning on, or after 1/1/2018, with earlier application permitted. Its application will have a material effect on preparation and interpretation of financial statements.The areas mostly affected will be classification and measurement of financial assets, and assessment of expected impairment losses on loans and loan portfolios.
Definition, classification and designation of elements within the scope of IFRS 9:• Financial assets, liabilities, equity• Comprehensive coverage of the roadmap to classification and designation of financial assets and
liabilities, including limited reference to non-conventional instruments.
IFRS 13 Fair value measurement
The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1/1/2013. It applies to all fair value measurements, when fair value is required or permitted by IFRS, with some limited exceptionThe training will: • Reference to key terms and concepts as fair
value, highest and best use, level 1, 2, 3, inputs • Explain the difference between fair value and
other bases that may be similar but are not fair value, as net realizable value
• Give explanation of principal and most advantageous market.
IFRS 16 Leases
IFRS 16 sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure for leases. The objective is to ensure that lessees and lessors provide relevant information in a manner that faithfully represents those transactions. Although IASB’s and FASB’s treatment of leases has converged significantly, there are material differences between the two boards’ allowable treatments. Certain transactions are still treated differently
IFRS 16 application will mainly impact the Lessee treatment of operating leases, under IAS 17 Leases
IFRS 16 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1/1/2019 and replaces IAS 17 Leases, and related IFRIC and SIC publications.
IFRS 15, Revenue from contracts with customers
IASB’s and FASB’s newly issued revenue standards will supersede virtually all revenue recognition in IFRS and US GAAP. Both boards’ goal in the joint deliberation was to develop converged standards, which would:• Provide a more robust framework for addressing
revenue recognition issues;• Improve comparability of revenue recognition
practices across industries, entities within those industries jurisdictions and capital markets;
• Reduce the complexity of applying revenue recognition requirements;
IFRS 15 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1/1/2018, and replaces IAS 18 Revenue, IAS 11 Construction contracts, and related IFRIC and SIC publications.

It is clear that modern professionals need a diverse set ofcapabilities to motivate their employees. But what aboutimplementing these in practice?
In Shaolin culture, empowerment refers to the acceptanceand the deep understanding of existing limitations. We willprovide you with certain tools and knowledge to support youin improving the quality of your life and business.

Important note:
While the speakers are both monks, we would like to clarify that the content of the training is in no way religious.
Stress Management
the Shaolin Way
The ultimate goal of this session is to help you
move away from being “pushed around” by your
appointments, your commitments, your stress
and your emotions. The quality of life is
determined by your attitude towards those
factors, and your ability to master them.
The Shaolin course will enable you to:
• describe your sources of stress and re-define
your strategies for responding to it
• distinguish between what you can influence
and what you cannot
• Work on an individual action plan to reduce
the negative impact of stress on your life.
The objective of this training is to provide the
practical skills to avoid the escalation of
conflicts and to find ways to resolve them.
The course covers:
• various types of conflicts and their causes
• how to diagnose and detect conflicts
• different strategies for conflict resolution
• recognition and evaluation of conflict potential
• ways for conflict prevention
• how to improve personal conflict skills.
The main goal of this training is to make you
familiar with the ancient wisdom and teachings
to enhance and enrich your personal life. The
training is oriented in a practical way with both
mental and physical exercises and methods.
The course focuses on:
• realization as the fundamental aspect of
working and living
• self-reflection and self-care to avoid social
conditioning
• exploration of uncertainty to consciously
perceive life
• “Gong Fu” - Perfection comes from repetition.
Many professionals are constantly under stress
that results in a feeling of stagnation. This
training is not a philosophy, but provides
participants with practical knowledge.
At the end of the course, you will be able to:
• use adequate and powerful tools and
exercises that will help you discover hidden
limitations
• apply the techniques to remove and
overcome the limitations to improve your
quality of life in general
• liberate your consciousness from
unproductive thoughts and instead develop a
creative and boundless mind, free from
limitations.
