The Audit Challenge: Updates and New Considerations—A Webinar Series (2022)

The 2021-22 school year introduced a number of new compliance challenges and pitfalls with the return and expansion of independent study requirements, additional categorical programs with specific audit components, and federal stimulus funding. A finding of noncompliance can result in a local educational agency losing a significant amount of revenue, and an increase in workload to achieve compliance. Knowledge and preparation could be the key to resolving issues early.

Every year, the Audit Regulations (Regulations) are updated to add new programs based on newly enacted legislation or audit findings identified through the submission of audit reports to the State Controller’s Office. The Audit Challenge webinar will provide business administrators and staff with information and best practices to better understand the audit process and stay informed about the latest changes to audit requirements.

We will include up-to-date information on all of the changes for the current 2021-22 Regulations and the proposed changes for 2022-23 Regulations.

Who Should Attend?

This webinar will be most beneficial for anyone involved in the audit process, including, but not limited to, assistant superintendents for business, fiscal services directors, program administrators, and school district auditors.
