SUMMARY:Third‑party Exposure: Dependency Requires Governed Accountability
DESCRIPTION:Description\n\n\n\nThird parties deliver critical outcomes for organizations while the exposure they create remains unmeasured and unassigned. This virtual session reframes third‑party oversight as an exposure problem by examining how exposure already exists within the enterprise\, how it drives cost\, delay\, and inefficiency\, and how governance begins only when exposure is defined and owned. \n\n\n\nParticipants will take away a clear structure for identifying\, attributing\, and governing third‑party exposure that aligns accountability with control and supports informed executive decisions. \n\n\n\nBy attending\, participants will: \n\n\n\n\nDetermine where third‑party exposure exists and assign accountability for dependent outcomes\n\n\n\nAssess whether decision authority aligns to the exposure being carried\n\n\n\nDistinguish between governed and inherited exposure and establish ownership boundaries\n\n\n\nDecide which exposures are acceptable\, conditionally acceptable or require intervention\n\n\n\n\nWho Should Attend:   \n\n\n\nThis program is designed for individuals who own decisions tied to third‑party dependencies throughout the enterprise. This includes leaders responsible for procurement\, operations\, finance\, risk\, compliance\, and internal audit who are accountable for cost\, performance\, continuity\, or regulatory outcomes affected by third parties. \n\n\n\nCPE Accreditation:\n\n\n\nDelivery Method | Group Internet-basedRecommended CPE credit | Up to one hour of CPE\, pending approvalRecommended Field(s) of Study | Client ServiceCPE Capability | Specialized KnowledgePrerequisites | NoneProgram Level | BasicAdvanced Preparation | Nonetner\, FBT Gibbons

SUMMARY:CJR-X: What to Know & How to Prepare
DESCRIPTION:CMS is expanding its use of mandatory\, episode-based payment models through the upcoming Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement Expanded (CJR-X) Model\, scheduled to begin in October 2027. This model shifts greater financial accountability to hospitals\, with performance tied to cost and quality outcomes across defined episodes of care. CJR-X is projected to generate approximately $725 million in savings for CMS over its first five years and doesn’t currently have a defined end date. CJR-X is expected to be finalized in the Inpatient Prospective Payment System (IPPS) final rule in late July or early August 2026. \n\n\n\nPreparing for participation in CJR-X will require an understanding of the model’s structure\, performance expectations\, and potential implications for hospitals. Organizations that begin evaluating their readiness early may be better positioned to navigate the transition.

SUMMARY:NextGen GRC: Transforming Risk & Compliance With AI
DESCRIPTION:Governance\, risk\, and compliance (GRC) programs are under increasing pressure from regulatory scrutiny\, fragmented technology environments\, manual workflows\, and rising expectations for real-time insight.

SUMMARY:Leadership and the Rise of AI Agents: From Process Engineering to Transformation
DESCRIPTION:About this Event:\n\n\n\nAI is quickly enabling professionals and teams to move beyond individual productivity tools and into the workflows\, systems\, and processes that shape how work gets done. For finance teams\, this shift creates a new leadership opportunity: to help engineer how AI can reimagine and radically transform workflows to improve efficiency and insight while preserving accuracy\, accountability\, governance\, and human judgment. But this opportunity will only happen once in a generation and is primarily a function of leadership\, not technical expertise. \n\n\n\nIn this session hosted by Pro Groups\, explore how finance professionals can play a more active role as organizations adopt AI agents and process-level automation. Panelists will discuss what it means for finance professionals to act as process architects\, governance partners\, business translators\, and change leaders in an AI-enabled environment. \n\n\n\nAttendees will hear perspectives from finance and technology leaders on the emerging “finance engineer” mindset\, the skills professionals need to build now\, and how they can help shape AI-enabled workflows that are practical\, controlled\, and scalable. \n\n\n\nThis webinar is eligible for 1 CPE credit.

SUMMARY:Leading the Charge: How Many North American Companies Are Navigating the New Era of Sustainability Disclosure
DESCRIPTION:About this Event:\n\n\n\nThe sustainability reporting landscape is evolving faster than most organizations can track. Between the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD)\, California’s landmark climate disclosure laws\, and the ISSB’s global baseline standards\, many North American companies are facing a patchwork of overlapping\, extraterritorial\, and rapidly maturing obligations.  \n\n\n\nIn the push for assurance-ready disclosure\, companies should confront the complex reality of quantifying and validating Scope 1\, 2\, and 3 GHG emissions—an important requirement within the maturing regulatory landscape. \n\n\n\nThis webinar helps to cut through the regulatory noise. Professionals from Deloitte & Touche LLP and Ropes & Gray will be joining to give executives and their teams a grounded\, practical view of where the rules stand today and what many organizations are doing now to prepare. \n\n\n\nThrough real-world examples\, attendees will learn how leading companies are building disclosure-ready programs\, managing legal and financial risk\, aligning cross-functional teams\, and turning compliance pressure into a governance strength. Whether your organization is just beginning its sustainability and climate reporting journey or refining an existing approach\, this session offers actionable takeaways you can bring directly to your team. \n\n\n\nAfter this webinar\, you will be able to: \n\n\n\nRecognize emerging leading practices for building a scalable\, assurance-ready sustainability and GHG emissions reporting infrastructure that can anticipate regulatory evolution rather than reacting to it. \n\n\n\nIdentify the sustainability and climate disclosure regulations affecting North American companies—including CSRD\, California SB 253 and SB 261\, and ISSB standards—and distinguish the scope\, timing\, and applicability of each. \n\n\n\nAssess their organization’s current exposure and readiness across multiple regulatory frameworks\, including extraterritorial obligations that may apply to U.S.-headquartered companies. \n\n\n\nApply practical approaches to cross-functional program design\, including ways to align finance\, legal\, sustainability\, and operations teams around a unified disclosure strategy. \n\n\n\nEvaluate common implementation challenges—such as data collection gaps\, materiality assessments\, and third-party assurance requirements—and recognize strategies used by peer organizations to address them. \n\n\n\nThis webinar is eligible for 1 CPE credit.
