"There will be a tremendous need for continuing education for all of our clients in the coming years," said Stacey Tedeschi, managing director of Resources' finance and accounting services.

"IASeminars is proud to be working with Resources Global Professionals to provide CPAs and other professionals with a wide range of solutions to their worldwide IFRS training requirements," said IASeminars CEO Marc Gardiner. "By working together to assist our mutual clients, we will be able to address diverse needs for training, information and assistance as U.S. preparers and users of financial information and others around the world tackle this important period of transition."

With more than 100 international accounting courses available in some 50 cities around the world (including more than 20 U.S. locations), the IASeminars technical training courses will help participants to learn how IFRS compares to U.S. GAAP, how to apply the international accounting standards and how to plan for IFRS adoption.

Some of the more popular IASeminars courses include:

• IFRS Overview with U.S. GAAP Comparison
