About this event

This online course will give you an overview of your responsibilities in looking after the finances of your charity - both in monitoring and reporting on them to OSCR (the Scottish charity regulator).

Learning Outcomes

We’ll explore how to :

Create a compliant annual statement of account under charity law
Understand charity budgets
Comply with external scrutiny requirements

We'll also talk through good practice guidance on financial management.

With some useful exercises and group learning – as a recent participant noted – finance can be fun!

The course is suitable for anyone working or volunteering in the charity sector in Scotland - trustees, directors, CEOs, managers, development workers, etc.

Please note that priority is given to people volunteering for organisations in Edinburgh.
