 WHAT YOU'LL LEARN 

The purpose of Finance 101 is to ensure all new United Way Finance professionals have the same understanding of basic financial concepts and unique United Way (financial) needs and processes.  It provides at minimum a line-of-sight into things every United Way financial professional needs to know.

 

 

 

WHAT OUR ATTENDEES SAY 

I needed this. It's a great overview and practice on the basics of United Way Finance. A good refresher but also correct answers on how to do this work.

We have a lot of requirements to ensure the integrity of our financial systems. This course gave great, practical advice on how to do just that.

 

 

There's a lot of great content and practice included. I walked away with lots of new information and confidence in how to ensure good financial operations. 

 

 

 

The instructors were fantastic!
