NBOA Long-Range Financial Model for Independent Schools Workshop

The NBOA Long-Range Financial Model for Independent Schools is an easy-to-use, customizable 10-year budget model, developed in a sophisticated Excel workbook. The model was updated and re-released in 2020 to support both day and boarding schools. While the tool itself is straightforward and accessible, sometimes finding the time to get started is not, and you need some momentum and support to get going. In the workshop, you will receive instructions on loading the model and learn the necessary assumptions to use the tool effectively. Participants will also learn about the reporting and graphing tools that can be used in presentations for the head of school, leadership team, finance committee and board of trustees. Above all, participants will carve out time to load data into their own copy of the model and develop the assumptions while having access to the instructor(s) who can answer questions.

Learning Objective(s): Participants will assemble and utilize the appropriate baseline data to load the NBOA Long-Range Financial Model for Independent Schools and formulate the assumptions needed to use the tool.
