The Department of Human Resources Employee & Organizational Development has collaborated with the Financial Services Division, Finance Systems Management, Cashier Offices, Internal Audit, and Planning, Budget & Analysis to offer a series of workshops to develop the financial management knowledge and skills of UNM’s workforce.
Realizing that education is fundamental to sound fiscal management, representatives from the above departments developed the following four core workshops:
Cash Management: This workshop will provide in-depth training on UNM’s cash management policy and procedures. Topics will include preparing a money list and credit card reports, processing foreign checks, and the proper handling and depositing of cash.
Understanding Basic Accounting at UNM: This Web-based workshop, designed for those with little to no accounting background, will provide a basic overview of accounting concepts and how they are used at UNM.
Analyzing and Reconciling Finance Information Using Hyperion: This class has been designed primarily for department administrators and anyone responsible for managing departmental finances. The purpose is to help users effectively utilize Hyperion reports in the management of departmental financial information. Among the topics are tips and tricks about Banner hierarchies, FOPA segments, and transaction information to assist in the understanding, analysis and reconciliation of department indexes.
Budget Basics for Managers: This workshop is designed to help non-accounting managers and directors understand the basics of developing and planning a department budget. Participants will also learn how to evaluate and analyze a budget after implementation, research variances and monitor budgets, distinguish between allocation and transfer, and properly budget a balance forward.
These workshops will be offered beginning in January. Visit Learning Central at Learning Central to learn more.
