SUMMARY:From COA Chaos to AI Confidence: A Finance Data Playbook
DESCRIPTION:Finance leaders are sprinting toward AI\, but AI doesn’t “fix” finance data. It amplifies whatever is already there: messy mappings\, inconsistent dimensions\, chart of accounts (COA) sprawl\, and disconnected source systems. In this session\, we’ll move past generic “data quality” advice and walk through a practical AI-readiness scorecard you can use now.  \n\n\n\nUsing real-world finance scenarios (multi-entity mapping\, COA rationalization\, dimension standardization)\, you’ll learn how to stabilize the model first\, then identify the highest-ROI automation and AI use cases that become possible once the foundation is sound. We’ll end with a 30-day readiness sprint plan you can take back to your team.  \n\n\n\nWebinar takeaways: – Assess finance AI-readiness using a scorecard across data readiness\, ecosystem\, governance\, and value realization. – Identify and prioritize 3–5 AI/automation use cases – Apply a practical approach to improving dimensionality\, mappings\, and COA structure  \n\n\n\n**CPE Eligible** Field of Study: Finance Level: Basic Prerequisite: None Advance Preparation: None required Delivery Method: Group Internet-Based Recommended CPE Credit(s): 1 \n\n\n\nEvent Inquiries: For inquiries as well as complaints concerning this webinar\, you are welcome to send an e-mail message to neil@controllerscouncil.org \n\n\n\nPlease note that only those who attend the live webinar will have the opportunity to earn continuing professional education (CPE) credit in connection with this webinar.
