Feature — Online Training Courses
The Vinson Institute's online training courses combine quality training with flexibility to meet the schedule and budget realities of today's government officials and employees. Offered in cooperation with UGA's Center for Continuing Education, the courses cover important topics specific to state and local government in the critical areas of financial management and human resources.
The newest addition to the Institute’s online course library is a financial management course, Internal Controls: Accounts Payable and Cash Disbursements, bringing the total number of online training courses offered to eight. This self-study, 30-day course targets the comprehensive internal controls that should exist for sound financial management in the government environment.
The online finance courses fulfill selected requirements for the Local Finance Officer Certification Program and the State Financial Management Certificate Program or provide continuing education units from the University of Georgia to satisfy other certification requirements.
