This course is designed to assist CPAs who perform compilation or review engagements. Our panelists will present a refresher on the performance of compilation and review engagements.  Current practice issues and the more advanced compilation and review topics will also be presented. The course provides valuable, practical advice that will benefit CPAs by helping reduce their liability risk, as well as helping ensure that they comply with peer review requirements.  The course addresses engagement administration issues such as determining whether the SSARS apply, engagement letters, independence issues, peer review, and workpaper documentation. The course also addresses compilation and review performance and reporting requirements and financial statement preparation, and will discuss best practices when implementing SSARS No. 19.   In addition, newly issued SSARS, SSARS Interpretations, SQCS No. 8, and other related compilation and review guidance will be discussed.
