New TASA guidelines and APES 305 updates have landed—are your client engagements still compliant?

Many firms won’t realise they’ve slipped out of line until it’s too late. The result? Costly rework, revenue loss, penalties, and potential damage to your reputation.

With EOFY approaching, now is the time to take control. In this practical session, Peter Thorp (Director, ABN) and Sarah Lawrance (Founder & Managing Director, Hot Toast) will show you how to tighten your engagement processes to prevent scope creep, protect profitability, and stay audit-ready.

In this session, you’ll learn:

  • Catch critical risks: Identify hidden gaps in your engagement process before they lead to trouble.
     

  • Prevent scope creep: Learn how poor scoping is costing firms revenue—and what to do about it.
     

  • Protect profitability: Why EOFY is the best time to fix underperforming client engagements.
     

  • Stay audit-ready: How smart templates and process automation can save your firm hours each week.
     

Don’t miss out on this opportunity to get ahead of EOFY and protect your firm.
