Who These Workshops Serve
Our training focuses on board members and financial committees of community-based organizations throughout Mexico. These workshops address the practical realities of managing collective resources when formal accounting may be beyond the organization's current capacity or budget.
We teach the financial management skills that boards need before they're ready to work with professional accountants.
Participants typically include fishing cooperatives managing catch sales and equipment purchases, agricultural societies tracking harvest income and input costs, and artisan groups coordinating material purchases and product sales.

Important Clarification
These workshops provide practical training for board members. We do not prepare official financial statements or provide accounting services. Organizations requiring formal accounting should engage a licensed contador.
