FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT AND PRACTICES IN SCHOOL NUTRITION PROGRAMS

8:00 am – 5:00 pm………………………………………………………………………………………..………………… ______$75

In recent years, school foodservice administrators have faced increasing demands to operate the school nutrition programs

as self supporting departments while maintaining quality food and nutritional integrity. The ability of the school

foodservice administrator to manage financial resources is critical to success in meeting customer needs, improving

program quality, and maintaining a financially sound program. In an effort to assist school districts, the National

Food Service Management Institute (NFSMI) has created a Financial Management Program. The topics covered include:

communicating the importance of effective financial management, revenue sources, expenditure sources, accountability

in financial reporting, using financial reports, forecasting revenue and expenditure and tools to analyze the financial status.

This workshop will be taught by NFSMI trainers. Don’t miss this opportunity to receive this valuable training from

trainers who know the rules and regulations.

Lunch is included.
