A Hands-On Workshop for Nonprofit Board Members

If you don't know what to look for when you receive your nonprofit's financial reports-and yet you know it's ultimately the board's responsibility-this program is for you.  This introductory workshop doesn't deal with how to calculate the numbers; instead it gives you practical guidance on the key areas of the financial reports that tell the most.  Today more than ever before, board members must be willing to find the answers and get the training if they don't understand their financial reports.  This hands-on workshop is an effective way for you to gain that knowledge.

You will learn how to:
- Have a basic understanding of common financial statements.
- Develop practical ways to track key financial indicators.
- Recognize financial warning signs, before they become serious problems.
- Get the most from the annual audit process.
- Put all this knowledge to use immediately in your own organization.

Come to this workshop to gain confidence in your ability to fulfill your fiduciary responsibility as a board member.  Participants will receive numerous practical handouts.

The workshop is presented by Tracy Harding from Berry Dunn McNeil & Parker. He has extensive expertise in accounting and auditing for nonprofit organizations - and is an effective communicator with non-financial board members.
Pre-register by sending a check or Visa/MasterCard information. Please include the following:
Your name, nonprofit affiliation, nonprofit title, business, business title, mailing address, phone number, e-mail address, and special needs at the training if applicable.
