Register for the 2017 Higher Education Accounting Forum

The Higher Education Accounting Forum (HEAF), designed for advanced-level accounting and finance professionals, will be held May 7–9 in Austin, Texas, at the Hyatt Regency Austin. The forum will offer the latest information on trends and best practices in financial accounting and reporting, managerial analysis, and leadership issues for all types of institutions.

The HEAF program will feature plenary speakers as well as smaller sessions to address special topics. Attendees can expect to (1) learn how to demonstrate awareness of preferred industry practices, (2) recognize how new and proposed accounting standards will impact the business office, and (3) collect insights about tax and federal legislative issues and changes on the horizon.

This year’s general session topics address cybersecurity, financial sustainability, leadership, endowments, communication, and risk management. Concurrent sessions tackle FASB and GASB updates and implementation, cloud migration, business analytics, effective financial communication, athletics, financial health, and more. During facilitated roundtable exchanges—broken out by managerial and technical topics of interest—participants can ask questions and exchange ideas. In addition, there will be opportunities for networking with colleagues during breakouts and the opening night reception.
