In-Person TrainingPowerPoint Download Files
As local healthcare funding moves from traditional grant models to fee-for-service, HIV organizations need to adapt their fiscal systems. This in-person training provided program and fiscal managers the technical skills to lead critical sustainability discussions. Participants collaborated with trainers and peers to understand the concepts behind projection-based budgeting, prepare to adapt budgeting practices to the changing economic conditions, and develop strategies to maximize limited resources.
Learning Objectives:
- Explore how budgets can be a catalyst to effective data sharing and communication between staff, leadership, and board members
- Discuss key components of nonprofit financial statements and be able to ask strategic questions and identify “red flags”
- Understand the differences in accounting practices between nonprofit and for-profit entities, focusing on sponsorships, grants and contributions
- Test new skills with a group of peers through a collaborative case study
Throughout the training participants interpreted and analyzed actual budgets and left with sample projection-based dashboards to adapt and use within their agencies. Take-away practice sheets were provided to assist with improving financial accountability and transparency.
