Webinar: The role of the not-for-profit board treasurer

Treasurers of not-for-profit organizations play a key role in ensuring the financial sustainability of the organizations they serve. Their role is complex and resources can be hard to come by. In collaboration with the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants, Blumberg Segal LLP and the HR Council, PwC hosted a 1.5-hour training session to help ease the burden that not-for-profit board treasurers may face.

The discussion shares the results from recent round table discussions with board treasurers from across the sector, a review of leading tools and resources, and leading practitioners. Specific topics of discussion include:

• Taking a snapshot of the not-for-profit sector
• Reviewing the role of the board treasurer and finance committees
• Duties and liabilities for board treasurers
• Accounting and financial reporting — what treasurers need to know
• Legal developments

Webinar facilitators:

• Sara Oates, former PwC associate partner
• Mark Blumberg, Blumberg Segal LLP
