Synario Series Part 4: Retrospective Analysis

This week on NACUBO In Brief, we bring you part four of our four-part series dissecting one of higher education’s biggest challenges: financial modeling and forecasting in the face of great uncertainty.

In our last episode, we presented sophisticated applications of scenario planning that can help institutions take their budgeting and forecasting models to the next level. In our final episode, our guests offer a survey of their experience working with campuses that have experience in using these more advanced analytical tools.

NACUBO’s senior director of accounting policy Sue Menditto invites two experts in for the conversation; Larry Goldstein, President of Campus Strategies and author of College and University Budgeting, and Brett Matteo, managing director of The PFM Group and president of Synario software (formerly known as Whitebirch).
