Description

How does your state audit and monitor its entities' P-Card programs? What are areas of your policy that do and do not work for you? What are some of the ways that you train administrators in your State’s program and ensure that their cardholders are trained as well? Becky and Rebecca facilitate the panel discussion with State P-Card administrators and discuss areas of P-Card program management as a statewide enterprise approach including topics such as:

• communications
• policy
• procedure
• audit
• rebate
