Given that it’s still relatively young for a regulator, the PCAOB continues to change dramatically. Join us for our 1st annual webcast regarding what is happening at the PCAOB. During this webcast, senior PCAOB Staffers will provide a wide range of practical guidance, from what are the latest issues, like internal controls for smaller companies interpretations, to whom do you call to resolve an issue, and much more. Join these experts:

  • Mary Sjoquist, Special Counsel to PCAOB Board Member Bill Gradison
  • Sharon Virag, Director, Technical Policy Implementation, as part of Chairman Olson’s Staff
  • Kayla Gillan, Chief Administrative Officer, RiskMetrics Group

Among the topics of this program are:

  • What rules has the PCAOB proposed and adopted recently, and which of them impact companies? What might transpire this year?
  • How is the PCAOB structured? What should companies consider, and whom should they contact, when they have an issue that might be appropriate for the PCAOB Staff?
  • How does the PCAOB’s inspection process impact individual companies? What is the process and how are the reports made public?
  • Where can you find the latest PCAOB resources?
