I will be running one session of the GIS (geographic information systems) Practicum, Introduction to GIS Using Open Source Software, during the summer semester on:
Friday June 7th
The day-long workshop runs from 9am to 4:30pm. CUNY graduate students, faculty, and staff are eligible to register; Baruch undergrads may register with permission from the instructor. Advance registration is required; the fee is $30 and includes a detailed tutorial manual and a light breakfast. Visit the GIS Practicum page to learn more and to register: http://guides.newman.baruch.cuny.edu/gis.
The FASB Codification of Accounting Standards, of which only accounting students and faculty may access the Academic Version via passwords, now includes access to the GASB (Governmental Accounting Standards Board), which issues the accounting standards that governmental units follow. Baruch community members also have access to the FASB and GASB standards through CCH Accounting Research Manager.
An accounting professor told me that the most recently issued GASB Statement, Statement No. 69, Government Combinations and Disposals of Government Operations, issued in January, 2013, is only available on CCH Accounting Research Manager. I checked and the version of GASB on the other database is current as of June 30, 2012. So, if you have an questions about Statement No. 69, the database to use is CCH Accounting Research Manager.
