March 15 Controllers’ Meeting – Agenda
The March Campus Controllers' meeting will be held on Fri, March 15 at the CU System office on Grant Street (Denver).
Agenda items include:
The 11th Annual Professional Development Symposium, CU Women Succeeding, was held on the Boulder Campus in February. There, our FinPro Help Desk Manager, Leslie Nittoli, joined R L Widmann and Viktoriya Oliynyk (both of UCB) in facilitating an interactive session on “the value of sharing stories of our professional journey.” The lively presentation was enhanced by music and small-group breakouts. A fun touch: the colorful and informational name tag-placards completed and worn by all participants.
Departments often ask us about the mission, responsibilities, and goals of the Office of University Controller (OUC).
You’ll find them all posted on the OUC website. From the home page (www.cu.edu/controller), click on the link at the top of the page to find our mission statement, roles and responsibilities, and a link to our org chart and FY 2013 goals. The latter are to:
Administer and enhance CU financial and reporting systems;
Establish internal controls to record, report, and safeguard assets;
On Feb 5 and Feb 13, the OUC presented its 3rd quarter in the FY 2013 CU CPE for CPAs Program. The combined days provided up to 13-1/2 credits (valued at almost $18,000) in continuing professional education for certified public accountants, auditors, and other employees. We were particularly pleased to welcome 21 new participants.Overall evaluations remain high, with 99% of attendees rating the instructors as effective, 98% agreeing that course content was relevant, and 100% affirming that learning objectives were met.
