Information technology and its role in today’s business environment is an important component for the success of today’s organization. Although organizations are staffed with experienced personnel who are skilled in the technicalities of data systems, personnel computer systems and data access methods, it is important that personnel within the office of the CFO have a strong understanding of control procedures that comprise the complex nature of today’s digital world.

This training is geared for all members of the office of the CFO and will serve as a primer for understanding the many advancements of information technology and its uses in today’s business environment. These advancements and uses of information technology can relate to financial, operational or compliance reporting methods. We will discuss the critical tie to COSO 2013 and delve into understanding the variance between General Controls and Application Controls. This training will then further evaluate the aspect of General Controls and provide examples and usages for today’s business.
