2017 Employee Benefit Plan Conference

Description

Employee Benefit Plans are important to the hiring and retention of employees for any business. However, they do present challenges to the CPAs engaged to audit them and Plan Sponsors who administer them.  The Employee Benefit Plan Conference equips CPAs in public and private sectors with guidance to better audit and operate Employee Benefit Plans (EBP). The conference offers three tracks (Basic, Intermediate/Advanced and Plan Sponsors), each dealing with issues that impact EBPs.

The Basic track walks through the required audit procedures for CPAs who are new to auditing EBPs.  The Intermediate/Advanced track provides CPAs  an update on accounting and auditing issues, as well as a more in-depth discussion of advanced issues affecting your audit file.  The Plan Sponsor track will feature sessions on anticipating, preparing and effectively responding to government oversight in your EBPs, as well as practical application tips for EBPs. Learn more about accounting, auditing, and reporting requirements, and receive updates on EBP legislative and regulatory issues, including current developments at the Department of Labor.
