The credential is designed for those who have fiscal responsibilities or budget oversight, serve as board members, volunteers, or trustees, or manage the operations of not-for-profit entities and organizations. The program includes practical skills that can be immediately applied to day-to-day operations, including:

  • Financial Reporting
  • Internal Controls
  • Budget Development
  • Governance

The firm is the exclusive licensed provider in the Cleveland area and is currently reserving seats for those interested in the next session, slated to be held later in the year. Interested folks can email CNAPCleveland@zinner.com to be added to the course information list.
