The high cost of structured CPE: myth and reality

Article Abstract:

The do-it-yourself (DIY) approach to continuing professional education (CPE) is an alternative method of obtaining structured CPE courses at a lower cost. Despite its relatively low cost, as valuated in time, money and disruption of work, most companies remain wary of DIY technique because of perceived expenses, such as staffed in-house training centers, in establishing a structured content. However, such facilities do not have to be costly because internally-generated ideas, experience, knowledge and opinions can significantly help participants improve their skills and abilities. The high cost of technical materials can be minimized by using articles in accountancy publications, notes from outside training, television programs and sources from within the company. Maintenance of professional standards, organization and a disciplined meeting structures guarantee the success of DIY CPE.

Cash Flow: The Reality after the Honeymoon

Article Abstract:

Company liquidations show no sign of abating. Cash flow management remains a crucial problem. The experiences of recently bought-out companies provide lessons for all. Most of the buyouts surveyed have experienced substantial sales and profit growth and have been free from cash flow problems. In a number of circumstances, the form of ownership does have a effect. Problems relate predominantly to parental control of banking facilities and debtor management, and to the ability of bought-out companies to generate sufficient funds to meet long-term financial commitments.
