Revenue Recognition - Topic 606 Overview
-
Online/Webcast
1.50 Credits
This session is the beginning in a series on the new revenue recognition standard. The standard outlines five steps for proper compliance. At the surface, these steps seem simplistic. However, there are many considerations that should be considered within each step based on your process and industry. This course is designed to provide an overview of the technical guidance and outline the five steps involved in the revenue recognition model. We also explore some concepts to consider within each step and then evaluate some challenges that specific industry's may have when complying with the standard. Future courses will further delve into each step and provide example and scenarios that should be considered to properly apply the step. Speaker - Lynn Fountain
When Leadership Fails
-
Online/Webcast
2.00 Credits
When the leadership in any organizations carries out their responsibilities of establishing, maintaining and monitoring internal controls, it significantly reduces the possibility of fraud occurring. When and if it does occur, a good system of internal controls will often detect it early on. This presentation is an illustration of what can happen when top management fails to carry out their responsibility of protecting an entity’s assets through a good system of internal controls. Speaker - Dennis Dycus

First Look Webcast: AI In Action: Real Tools. Real Results.
-
Online/Webcast
1.00 Credits
Artificial intelligence is rapidly moving beyond simple automation and chatbots. A new generation of agentic AI systems—AI that can plan, reason, and execute multi-step tasks— is beginning to transform how accounting work is performed across the entire financial workflow. In this practical one-hour webinar, Dr. Andrew Schwarz, Professor of Information Systems at Louisiana State University and a nationally recognized speaker on applied AI, will demonstrate how accounting professionals can leverage agentic AI to streamline complex processes, reduce manual effort, and improve decision quality. Rather than focusing on theory, this session emphasizes real tools and real results. Participants will see how AI agents can assist with tasks such as document ingestion, reconciliation support, anomaly detection, audit preparation, and financial analysis by coordinating multiple tools and datasets within a structured workflow.Dr. Schwarz will walk through concrete examples of how agentic AI can function as a digital accounting co-worker, orchestrating tasks such as gathering financial data, validating entries, generating reports, and identifying potential compliance risks. The session will also address practical considerations for integrating AI responsibly into accounting environments, including governance, verification, and human oversight.By the end of the webinar, participants will have a clear understanding of:• How agentic AI differs from traditional automation and generative AI tools• Where AI agents can add immediate value in the accounting workflow• Examples of AI-assisted accounting tasks using today’s tools• How organizations can begin experimenting safely with AI-augmented accounting processesThis session is designed for accountants, financial managers, auditors, and business leaders who want to move beyond the hype and understand how AI can meaningfully augment accounting work today.Participants will leave with a practical framework for thinking about AI-augmented accounting workflows—where humans remain in control while AI agents handle the repetitive, data-intensive tasks that slow teams down.
