Designed to help practitioners perform efficient, cost-effective audit, review and compilation engagements for small and medium-sized entities (SMEs), this comprehensive two-volume set is also a key resource for training staff and providing just-in-time guidance. Volume 1 discusses key concepts and Volume 2 provides a practical road map to performing assurance engagements. Guidance on documenting audit requirements is provided through two SME case studies with completed audit forms and memorandums.

They also receive the Focus on C-PEM newsletter, which is periodically distributed by e-mail to address emerging issues and then archived on the website.

The French version, Guide du praticien canadien (GDP•CA) 2011, will be available in November 2011. In the interim, subscribers to GDP•CA will be given access to C•PEM in whichever format they subscribe to.

HELPING CANADIAN NON-PROFITS AND CHARITIES OPERATE LEGALLY AND ETHICALLY IN CANADA AND ABROAD

CanadianCharityLaw.ca assists Canadian charities, their staff and boards of directors, to understand their legal and ethical obligations when operating a Canadian registered charity. As well, CanadianCharityLaw.ca provides insights and information to non-Canadian charities interested in operating or fundraising in Canada.

The charitable sector in Canada has become more challenging. The sector is highly competitive with over 85,000 Canadian registered charities. As well donors, regulators, media, the public as well as other stakeholders, have increasingly high standards for charities and their operations. CanadianCharityLaw.ca will assist charities in Canada grapple with these important issues. Our goal on this website is not only to impart knowledge but also encourage compliance with legal requirements and ethical standards. Encouraging compliance is about more than threatening consequences such as liabilities, fines and revocation and trying to create anxiety about the operation of a charity. Most people working or volunteering with charities want to their charity to be caring, effective, efficient, and ethical. CanadianCharityLaw.ca will assist charities to comply with their obligations and aspirations and to save their resources, reputation and efforts for charitable activities.

This site is divided into articles, comments/blog, frequently asked questions (FAQ),  and contact information  if you need to contact us.

Here is our special section on CRA’s Fundraising Guidance by Canadian registered charities. Also here is our special section on receipting by Canadian registered charities. Did you know that 89% of registered charities when audited were found to be incorrectly issuing receipts?
