What finance practitioners say about Shan Kennedy after attending her Masterclass:
Shan had some real exhaustive material on IFRS and I really appreciate the efforts she had put in. It was truly a masterclass. Shans training for our team on IFRS 3 valuations has helped us enormously, as has her experience and expert opinion, particularly on appropriate assumptions to use in calculations for testing the impairment of goodwill. Shans regular IFRS updates for us have been very helpful and I look forward to the next one soon. She is always right up to date and absolutely on the nail. She is knowledgeable and is in touch with the relevant accounting bodies to be updated and impart that latest information to the participants. She has in-depth knowledge and teaching capacity for any level of audience.
