Day of Giving - Virtual Food Drive & In Person Toy Drive
Tuesday, Dec. 1 8:00am - 10:00am
Glastonbury
0.00 Credits
Two organizations. One community. One incredible opportunity to make a difference. The Young Professionals of the CTCPA and Connecticut Bar Association are joining forces once again to host the 2026 Day of Giving bringing hope, comfort, and joy to our Connecticut neighbors. Last year, thanks to the incredible generosity of our members and supporters, we raised more than $12,000 to fight food insecurity and collected nearly 1,000 new toys for children receiving care at Connecticut Children's Medical Center. This year, we're dreaming even bigger. And we need YOU again to help make it happen! Your generosity can make a difference in two meaningful ways. A monetary donation to CT FoodShare can help families facing food insecurity enjoy meals and worry a little less about where their next meal will come from. Making a monetary donation is quick, easy, and secure. Or, donate a new, unwrapped toy and deliver a moment of happiness, comfort, and holiday magic to a child receiving hospital care. Whether you give $10, $50, $100, or a toy chosen with love, your kindness matters. Every contribution brings us closer to making this our most impactful Day of Giving yet! Toy donations: Bring a new, unwrapped toy to the CTCPA offices at 95 Glastonbury Boulevard, Glastonbury, on Tuesday, December 1, between 8:00 and 10:00 a.m. Let's show what happens when two professional communities come together with one shared purpose: making life a little brighter for our Connecticut neighbors.

Designed as an all-you-need-to-know update for accounting, auditing, and attestation practitioners at all levels in public accounting and industry, this course provides a comprehensive review of recent standard-setting and rulemaking activities of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB), and Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

We will also discuss the more than a dozen ASUs the FASB has issued since the beginning of 2023 and into 2025 covering crypto assets, disaggregated expenses, business combinations, and leases for entities under common control. Our focus on AICPA standards includes a detailed discussion of revamped AICPA quality management standards. The AICPA updated and modernized the standards by issuing Statement on Quality Management Standards 1, 2, and 3 (SQMS 1, SQMS 2, and SQMS 3, respectively), SSARS No. 26, and SAS 146, Quality Management for an Engagement Conducted in Accordance with Generally Accepted Auditing Standards (SAS 146). These standards, effective December 15, 2025, modernize quality management standards to reflect an increased focus on risk assessment, technology use, and the presence of outside experts on engagements. We will also cover new rules impacting public company audits and present case studies on recent fraudulent accounting stories and best practices for detecting and preventing such frauds.
