Thursday, July 22, 2010

Duration: 1 Hour
CPE Credits: 1 Hour
A significant amount of today's corporate data is stored in spreadsheets, Access databases, and other end-user computing (EUC) applications. The ease-of-use, power, and flexibility of EUCs are unprecedented in today’s business environment, and therefore require that organizations evaluate the accuracy of their EUC’s as well as the adequacy of their control environment. In the wake of the recent financial crisis where regulatory pressures are mounting from the SEC, FSA, FDIC, OCC, NAIC, and other agencies, there is a heightened awareness of the risks associated with uncontrolled EUCs. Such risks include honest mistakes (e.g. errors, poor programming practices), non-compliance, and even fraud. The painful consequences of these risks range from loss of revenue and material weaknesses, to restating earnings, regulatory fines and complete loss of shareholder confidence.
Join Prodiance and Altran Control Solutions for this informative, 1-hour webinar to learn about the key issues surrounding spreadsheet and EUC risk, and how the latest technology and best practices can help organizations effectively mitigate risk, improve the accuracy and integrity of EUCs, and drive process efficiency.
