[TULSA] Standards in Focus: From Year-End Recap to Strategic Asset
OKCNP - Tulsa Legacy Plaza Training Room
5330 East 31st Street Suite 200 Tulsa, OK 74135 United States
You know the Standards for Excellence. Now let's get specific.
Standards in Focus is a new series of focused, three-hour trainings built directly from the Standards for Excellence educational resource packets, the same nationally recognized framework your organization may already be working toward, examined one topic at a time. Where the two-day Standards for Excellence course gives you the full picture, these sessions are designed to zero in on particular areas of nonprofit ethics, governance, and operations so you can walk away with actionable tools and clarity on the issues your organization is actively navigating.
Each training is its own complete learning experience. You don't need to have completed the two-day course to participate, these trainings stand on their own and are open to nonprofit staff, board members, and leaders at any stage of their standards journey.
Course Description
Your annual report is one of the most visible things your organization produces — and one of the most underutilized. Done well, it’s a transparency tool, a fundraising asset, and a demonstration of accountability to the communities you serve. Drawn from the Standards for Excellence educational packet on Successful Annual Reporting, this training covers the full life cycle of report development — from planning and process design to content, visual storytelling, and online publishing — with practical strategies that work regardless of budget size.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this training, participants will be able to:
- Explain the core functions of a nonprofit annual report and why it cannot be replaced by an audited financial statement or Form 990 alone.
- Identify the essential and supplemental elements of an effective annual report, from program narratives and financial summaries to donor recognition.
- Design an internal development process that integrates program reporting year-round and establishes clear roles and timelines.
- Apply best practices for visual storytelling, photography, design, and accessibility to communicate impact credibly across audiences.
- Describe options for publishing the annual report online in alignment with Standards for Excellence transparency expectations.
