On November 19, join us for a free webinar to learn how to close the year strong and plan ahead for 2027.
Year-end close is more than a reporting exercise. It is an opportunity to strengthen financial visibility, reduce manual work and set your organization up for a more confident year ahead.
Join Sage experts Katherine Bandeniece and Will Tan for a practical conversation about the challenges Canadian nonprofit finance teams face as they close out 2026. Drawing on insights from the 2026 Canadian Nonprofit Trends Report, the session will explore practical ways to improve year-end processes, reporting and planning for 2027.
Learning objectives:
By the end of this webinar, attendees will be able to:
- Identify common year-end finance challenges facing Canadian nonprofits and ways to address them.
- Improve the efficiency and accuracy of year-end close by reducing manual processes and spreadsheet dependency.
- Strengthen financial reporting and visibility for leadership, boards, funders and other stakeholders.
- Explore how automation can help finance teams spend less time on repetitive work and more time on strategic priorities.
- Apply practical steps to move from year-end close into stronger planning and decision-making for 2027.
