A8: #EdFinChat The Superintendent will launch an investigation. Then a report is compiled. Information regarding potential fraud is forwarded to the local authorities. The suspected employee may be reinstated or terminated after the investigation.

A7: #EdFinChat Yes, because the P-Card request must be explicit and approved by an administrator, who is very comfortable with saying “no.” There was and continues to be a clear understanding of what is deemed appropriate and not.

A4: #EdFinChat Employees participate in on-line training and review the training manual. It is discussed as well during annual reviews. There are also regular department meetings.

A3: #EdFinChat The CSBO reviews the payroll and the accounts payable check runs. Another employee checks the CSBO’s reconciliation. A board member checks monthly. Administrators are sent an accounts payable check register to review.

A2: #EdFinChat Often times people don’t like change and get used to the way things have been done. If it doesn’t affect them in their daily lives, sometimes people have difficulty seeing the value in the internal controls.

A1: #EdFinChat Set clear expectations and ensure that each person clearly understands their roles and responsibilities. It is also important to build trust and transparency through consistency and open communication.
