Excel and Valid8: Enhanced Forensic Accounting and Financial Tracing 1 Credit 1 Credit
Learning mode
Forensic accounting utilizes accounting,
auditing, and investigative skills to examine the finances of an individual or
business. It provides an accounting analysis suitable to be used in legal
proceedings. Forensic accountants are trained to look beyond the numbers and
deal with the business reality of a situation.
In this CPE webinar,
co-founders of Valid8 Chris McCall and Tod McDonald will introduce best practices to accelerate the forensic
analysis of financial evidence.
The audience of this
CPE course on accounting will learn how to build upon their existing Excel skills and solve for the quality,
speed, and cost of preparing evidentiary financial data for an investigation.
Chris and Tod in this
CPE course will use examples from real-world case studies of Valid8 to
illustrate how professionals can use Valid8 to
enhance their work in Excel and to gain
insights that are backed by evidence.

webinar is designed for professionals who:
