Virtual Learning Concepts (VLC) and Patterson & Associates announces the launch of a bold new online initiative to provide state mandated Public Funds Investment Act Training via the Internet. www.virtuallearningconcepts.com Tailored originally for Texas where training in all aspects of cash management and investing is required under the state law (Public Funds Investment Act) this course offers all public funds investment officers ten hours of training. The training satisfies that state law requirement and gives "YOU" the ultimate flexibility in meeting your training needs. The Texas component of the training is segregated and new state modules are being added. The core course materials are not state specific in that they address the universal risks, security types, reporting needs, controls, and other functions that make an effective treasury operation. The training is presented in a modular approach allowing the student to address specific subjects and each module has an optional test to evaluate your understanding of the subject. Virtual Learning Concepts is a progressive Internet technology firm providing adaptive learning environments delivered via a web-based learning content management system to participants of varying professional backgrounds and learning requirements. Patterson & Associates, has provided all the content. Totally on-line Take it over 90 days on your schedule At home or at office convenience 10 hours of CPE credits Fulfills Texas PFIA statutory requirements Certificate issued on-line after completion Questions/chat room with experts Saves travel time and cost ON-SITE TRAINING Upcoming Speeches, Seminars & Presentations by Linda for more information or to talk to one of our team: PATTERSON & ASSOCIATES 301 Congress Avenue, Suite 570 Austin, Texas 78701 T: 512.320.5042 T: 800.817.2442 F: 512.320.5041 W: www.patterson.net Please call us by phone should all this new fangled wizardry fail.
