REGISTER HERE Title of Session or Presentation: Internal Controls Through an Auditor's Lens Description of Session: Join Kyle Bartle, CPA, for an insightful and engaging look at internal controls—told from the perspective of someone who has spent more than a decade auditing and advising governmental agencies. Kyle brings clarity and energy to a topic that many find challenging to navigate, helping participants see internal controls not just as requirements, but as tools that can make financial processes smoother, stronger, and far more efficient. Kyle walks through how auditors evaluate key business cycles—such as cash receipting, accounts payable, payroll, and the financial reporting process—and highlights the control gaps he sees most often in audits. He’ll show what effective controls look like in real world settings, how documentation shapes an auditor’s conclusions, and where small refinements can lead to better audit outcomes and fewer headaches. Expect a session that’s practical, approachable, and full of “why didn’t we do it this way sooner?” moments. Kyle’s clear explanations and government focused experience make complex concepts easy to understand and directly applicable to your agency’s day-to-day work.
