Course Overview

The 2022 Edition of the GAAS Guide has been updated to reflect the latest available professional standards. This CPE course reflects all the changes resulting from the AICPA's efforts to clarify auditing, attestation, preparation, compilation, and review standards. 

This CPE webinar includes the important changes to Yellow Book as well as Single Audits.

It will review the major changes auditors need to understand when performing audits under GAGAS (Yellow Book or Government Auditing Standards). Areas of focus include the updated independence requirements, form and organization of the guidance, and quality control as well as common deficiencies. 

Our speaker Jennifer Louis will look at the AICPA’s reporting standard and its impact on the auditor’s report as well as the Compliance report for Single Audits. We will then switch gears and cover the Uniform Guidance including the most recent changes to the Uniform Guidance.

This CPE course will be an overview of: 

  • Scope and nature of Government Auditing Standards (Yellow Book). 
  • Yellow Book general standards, including independence. 
  • Requirements for performing financial statement audits performed by generally accepted auditing standards and Yellow Book.
  • Reporting and communication requirements of a financial statement audit performed under Yellow Book.
  • Differences in audit objectives and reporting requirements for various Yellow Book engagements, including performance audits.

Join this Yellow Book CPE webinar to learn the Yellow book updates and current issues in performing yellow book audits.

I thought Jennifer Louis, CPA (US) did a very good job of presenting course material. I was pleased that the my-cpe.com website for answering the attendance questions and the final quiz was uncomplicated. I took the 2023 Yellow Book Update, under Generally Accepted Government Auditing Standards (GAGAS). It was for 2.5 Credits of Government Auditing CPE. I found my-cpe.com from random internet search. Thank you, I will continue to do more CPE with Jennifer Louis and my-cpe.com
