About the course
Regular company accounts and charity accounts are very different. They have different financial statements and different laws governing them. Accounting and audit issues in charities are complex and have become increasingly specialised in recent years.
This course demystifies the accounts of charities and ensures you are equipped to deal with the rules and regulations that apply. It gives an overview of charity reporting and highlights some of the pitfalls to avoid when preparing and approving charity financial statements.
