About
the Cash Handling Workshop
The
Association of Public Treasurers’ CASH HANDLING TRAINING WORKSHOP is a
four-hour program designed to train government employees and officials in
proper cash handling techniques. Finance
officers, treasury officials, city clerks, and cash handlers are encouraged to
attend. The Cash Handling Training
Manual is the required text for the workshop.
The Manual serves as a model on which a government can base its own
program and manual, with a comprehensive set of cash handling techniques, a
training syllabus, and instructions on how to develop a manual/program for an
individual government. A government’s manual may be submitted to the
Association of Public Treasurers for review and certification. Workshop participants will receive a
Certificate of Completion from the Association of Public Treasurers.
