| certification in control self assessment: Not-for-Profit Audit Committee Best Practices Warren Ruppel, 2006-02-10 How can not-for-profit organizations be sure they play by the rules when the rules aren't clear? Due to recent, very public accounting scandals and the resulting Sarbanes-Oxley Act and other regulations, public companies have strict guidance on financial governance and accounting, including the functions and responsibilities of audit committee members. Though not-for-profit organizations are subject to increased scrutiny, there has been no detailed guidance for their audit committees. This book fills the void and helps not-for-profit organizations answer these questions: * In today's skeptical environment, how can responsible financial governance and reporting reassure wary donors and supporters, and perhaps give the organization a competitive advantage? * How should the audit committee be structured? * Which Sarbanes-Oxley requirements (if any) should the audit committee adopt? * Which best practices best fit the organization's structure and financial reporting needs? Complete with checklists, sample questions, and an index for quick reference, Not-for-Profit Audit Committee Best Practices covers: * Different types and unique characteristics of not-for-profit organizations * The audit committee's role in preventing and detecting fraud * Important internal controls and the internal audit function * The relationship of the audit committee and the independent auditor This heads-up, hands-on guide helps audit committee members select and structure appropriate best practices and function in the most effective manner for their unique not-for-profit organizations. It's also a valuable reference for board members, managers, independent auditors, and advisors of not-for-profit organizations. |

With this book you will: Easily locate any concept on the exam objectives and quickly refresh your mind on it. Learn complicated concepts in very simple terminologies. Understand how concepts apply in practical scenarios. Randomly test your knowledge on any item on the exam objectives to reinforce what you know and correct what you don't. Easily remember concepts with the aid of over 1000 illustrative icons used. Beyond the exam, have a cybersecurity reference manual that you can always refer to using the Index of Concepts in alphabetical order. Flash cards used to be the go-to method for a final revision of key concepts in the Security+ objectives, but this dictionary now provides more detailed information on EVERY SINGLE ITEM on the exam objectives. With this tool, you can easily lookup any concept to reinforce your knowledge and gain some basic understanding of it. Indeed, in Security+, and of course in cybersecurity in general, the most prepared people are not those who know everything about something, but those who know something about everything. |
