• Dave Lynn, Editor, TheCorporateCounsel.net and Partner, Morrison & Foerster LLP
• J. Louis Matherne, Director of XBRL Services, Clarity Systems

Among the topics of this program are:

• How to conduct due diligence with XBRL
• How to handle internal control concerns
• What are the consequences for non-compliance
• How the liability standards work
• Demonstration of how a workflow process works using automated tagging
