Presentation & Continental Breakfast at 7:30
Networking at 9:00

Did you know that 4 out of 5 smaller nonprofits with budgets below $1 million report that none of their fiscal staff have an accounting degree or other significant formal training?

This session is intended to provide an overview of fiscal staffing structures, processes and procedures for nonprofits. You will learn if your organization is staffed adequately compared to other nonprofits of similar size, how to identify future staffing needs and how to determine the right division of labor between your staff, the Executive Director and the board.

You will also learn tips on how to determine the best software and systems to support your fiscal work, how to assess performance, and how to build an internal review process that works.
