Who Attends?
The conference is designed especially for CFO’s, CEO’s, directors, comptrollers, counsel and accountants of nonprofit organizations. Nonprofit sectors in attendance include foundations, associations, philanthropic, government, cultural, religious, health, educational, social welfare, civic and fraternal organizations. Attorneys, accountants and others who provide critical services to these sectors are all present in force as well.

Three specialized tracks providing comprehensive training:

LEGAL FOCUSED TRACK

This track is dedicated to educating those in the nonprofit world responsible for all legal aspects as they pertain to exempt organizations. As legal and legislative issues affecting nonprofit are under heavy examination, on all fronts, you owe it to yourself and your clients to keep abreast of current nonprofit laws. Sessions will identify important topics in legal areas and empower participants to recognize issues and explain how to resolve them.

FINANCE FOCUSED TRACK

With nonprofit organizations, there’s no margin for error when it comes to financial processes, budgeting, tax compliance, or strategic planning. Finance professionals must be in the know about new regulations and industry best practices, or else risk fraud, embezzlement, legal prosecution or fines, loss of your tax-exempt status, declining membership, or even bankruptcy.

GRANTS FOCUSED TRACK:

As many nonprofits are dealing with personnel turnover and new staff, is your entire team — as well as your internal policies — truly up-to-date with all the provisions in the uniform grant guidance, as revised in 2020? Everyone in your organization must be doing his or her part to ensure that your federal funding is protected from mismanagement.

Join us in-person, Spring 2023 in Washington, DC to learn from powerhouse sessions focused on nonprofit challenges delivered by knowledgeable compliance experts in legal, finance and grants compliance. You’ll walk away from this conference with clear guidance centered around hot topics including complexities of the pandemic, the surge in funding into the nonprofit industry and evolving compliance issues.
