This year, not-for-profit entities are preparing for or applying critical new standards related to contributions, leases and more. In addition, governments are preparing for or applying critical new standards related to fiduciary activities, leases and more. Now is the time to know more than just what the standards say, we need to know what they mean and how they will affect both these entities. This course is designed to do just that!
