Training the people who prepare and control financial information

An engagement that ends with a report nobody can act on has not met its objective. We pass the method to the people already in post, in French and in English.

What we help you solve

  • An accounting team applying the revised SYSCOHADA without ever having studied it in a structured way.
  • Audit findings that recur each year for want of the internal skill to resolve them.
  • A move to IPSAS or IFRS announced, with no plan to build the team's capability.
  • AI tools adopted by staff with no framework and no training.

Format and deliverables

Each programme is built on anonymised cases drawn from real files. Participants leave with materials, usable templates and a written procedure where the topic allows.

What we do

  • Revised SYSCOHADA: chart of accounts, financial statements, adjustments
  • International Standards on Auditing (ISA) and the audit approach
  • IPSAS and public sector accounting in the WAEMU context
  • Internal control, fraud prevention and detection
  • QuickBooks: getting started, configuration and month-end close
  • Artificial intelligence applied to accounting and audit
  • Reading and analysing financial statements for non-financial leaders
  • Support towards professional qualifications

Standards and regional context

Programmes are built on the applicable frameworks — revised SYSCOHADA, ISA, IPSAS — and adapted to the sector and the level of the participants. Sessions run in-house or inter-company, in French or English.

How we work

Discover

We frame the context, the risks and stakeholder expectations before proposing an approach.

Design

We build an approach proportionate to the real risk, not to a standard format.

Deliver

We carry out the work with documentation that stands up to third-party scrutiny.

Assure

We report clear conclusions, workable recommendations and an agreed follow-up.
