Learning the Lingo – Accounting for Nonprofits

December 10, 2020 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm EST

Can you understand what an accountant, a board member, or a consultant is saying to you when they ask for reports or schedules?

Learning the lingo of accounting is a critical skill for both young and established nonprofits. Creating a fiscally responsible organization is key to help you raise money to support your mission. Whether you know some of the terminology, or don’t know what you don’t know…this presentation is for you!

In addition to a list of terms and definitions, you’ll learn the why and how of these terms. You’ll receive a pre-test for you to test your knowledge and take notes.

Both accountants and consultants have contributed to this list of over 30 terms, to ensure your job is easier and to make sure it’s done right the first time. No more nights looking things up on the Internet just to deliver tomorrow what they asked for today! We’ll give real world examples so you can see the terminology in action.

After this workshop you’ll be able to communicate in accounting terms as it pertains to your organization. Bring any questions you may have as there will be time for Q&A.
