Campus: Week of November 5, 2001
Series
of Accounting and Budgeting Seminars Scheduled
As part of its dedication to provide appropriate staff training,
Rensselaer has commissioned PricewaterhouseCoopers, an accounting
and professional services firm that serves 70 percent of the top
private and public research universities, to deliver a series
of four seminars on basic nonprofit accounting and budgeting principles
and financial practices.
The
first seminar, "Basic Accounting, Budgeting and Internal
Control Concepts," will be held Friday, Nov. 16. Because
a sizeable attendance is anticipated, two sessions will be offered--8:30
a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and 1 to 5 p.m. Both sessions will be held
in Room 4050 of the Low Center for Industrial Innovation. Refreshments
will be available.
The
seminars are designed for those with or without an accounting
background. The curriculum covers basic concepts for accounting
and budgeting in a university environment and includes a discussion
on the purpose and function of a facilities and administrative
rate.
You must make a reservation. RSVP to Kathy Yannotti with preferred
time slot at yannok@rpi.edu.
Reservations will be taken on a "first-come, first-served"
basis. 11/5/01
