ChatGPT 5.6: The Latest Updates  

Accountants

Wednesday 2nd September, 2026

12pm - 1pm AEST

1 x CPD point

Whatever ChatGPT you learned in autumn is already out of date.

On 8 July OpenAI shipped its biggest update of the year: GPT-5.6, a new Work tool, and GPT-Live, an AI you talk to in real time. This session cuts through the update noise and shows you exactly what's changed and what to do with it in an accounting practice.

What's covered

• What GPT-5.6 actually improves for professional work
• The new ChatGPT Work tool and what it means for firm workflows
• A live GPT-Live demo: file notes, client intake, verbal first drafts
• Where agents now fit, and where they don't yet
• Confidentiality settings to check before rolling any of it out to your firm

Who it is for: Accountants and practice owners who want to know what's actually new, not another beginner's guide to ChatGPT.

When: Wednesday 2 September 2026, 12.00pm to 1.00pm AEST, live online via Zoom.

Investment: $99 including GST. A recording is shared with everyone who registers, so you can still book if you cannot make it live.

This session may count towards your continuing professional development.
