      KPMG's Accounting Advisory Services (AAS) provides a wide range of IFRS and SFRS training sessions for corporates. Our trainings can be customized using a modular approach, drawing on our extensive library of basic to advanced training modules which cover all aspects of financial reporting.

      Our training sessions can be held at the client’s premises, and are delivered in an interactive learning environment that is created through industry-specific case studies and electronic feedback technology to reinforce learning.

      Trainers are KPMG professionals with many years of practical experience, who actively consult with Singapore and global regulators on the interpretations of accounting standards in order to give clients a clear direction and explanation of the upcoming changes and the potential impact to their businesses.

      We provide a wide range of trainings, from à la carte modules to tailored in-house workshops:

      • Core IFRS modules
      • IFRS technical updates
      • Industry specific IFRS workshops
      • Company tailored in-house workshops
      • Annual accounting update
        Tax benefits for accounting training


        Companies investing in employee training can now enjoy both tax and cash benefits under the enhanced Productivity and Innovation Credit (PIC) scheme.

        The enhanced PIC scheme increased the quantum of tax deduction from 250 percent to 400 percent of expenditure spent per year on each qualifying activity. This translates to a maximum of a $1.6 million tax deduction for a company's expenditure on employee trainings.

        Businesses with low or no taxable income can also enjoy benefits under the enhanced scheme. Besides tax deduction benefits, companies can apply to convert its expenditure on employee training into a non-taxable cash payout instead.
