About the Webinar

On the heels of a five percent cost-of-living adjustment and an historical level of one-time resources, local educational agencies (LEAs) are navigating the numerous reporting deadlines, and new plans in the face of declining enrollment with one primary fiscal goal—ensuring their LEA stays on the strong fiscal ground.

Amidst the new funding sources and spending requirements, it’s more important than ever to understand the fundamentals of preparing for bargaining, and effectively communicating the position of the LEA—including the tracking of one-time resources.

The webinar contains important information for all levels of the business and fiscal departments, including accountants, fiscal directors, budget managers, and chief business officials, as well as lead negotiators. Be sure to attend to learn new ideas for the experienced negotiator, as well as training for the newest participant on the management side of the table.
