Dear all,
The Technical Accounting Network ("TAN"), in conjunction with the Corporate Controller's Team and Internal Audit recently reflected on some control deficiencies that were identified during the year-end close and on some areas of accounting that may require additional training, based upon frequently asked questions. Additionally, as we are still early in 2015, it is a good time to remind ourselves of the importance of the work we do and the relationship between the accounting standards, our code of conduct and our controls and compliance efforts in driving our behaviors.
We have therefore decided to schedule training classes that will be mandatory for all finance team members globally. This training will provide some basic insight into these areas of accounting and some guidance to help navigate judgmental areas.
The class will be approximately an hour in length and we are aiming to complete this global training in the course of the next week.
We are scheduling this training session four times, to ensure that you can find one that fits your schedule:
Mar 26th 1.30PM CST
Mar 26th 4.00PM CST
Mar 26th 9.00PM CST
Mar 30th 8.00AM CST
Therefore, I ask the following of each of you:
1. Select a training class by responding to the calendar invite attached to this email for the session you plan to attend.
2. Attend that training class.
3. Respond to the survey that will be submitted afterwards, which will verify your attendance.
If you have any concerns, please let me know!
