Financial Oversight

Know if your schools are fiscally healthy

Are your schools financially healthy? Are they using resources equitably? One of the fastest ways for a school to fail is through financial insolvency. And this is completely avoidable. Requiring financial audits is not enough to understand a school's financial health. Work with us to develop a risk-based financial oversight monitoring process.

Connect with an expert.

"The Institute's early warning detection system gave us the insights we needed to identify and deal with a problem before it became a major issue."
