2008 online presentations

Since the Public Sector Accounting Board (PSAB) announcement on the new reporting requirements for municipal assets, municipal staff have been challenged with developing plans in preparation for the formal implementation date of January 1, 2009.

One of the bigger challenges facing municipal governments is understanding how to respond to PSAB 3150 reporting requirements from two different perspectives – engineering and accounting. 

Using these two perspectives, this webinar will address key issues for the planning and implementation of PSAB 3150 requirements both for the January 1st 2009 reports, and beyond.

This presentation will also outline PSAB requirements in relation to broader asset management principles, and provide tips and tricks on how to navigate the planning and implementation process. It will use real-life experience
and “lessons learned” to demonstrate how to overcome typical reporting challenges.
