A seminar aimed at informing the potential investor of the practicalities of making an equity investment.
Event hosted by Winter Rule on 19 May 2011 - Part of Cornwall Business Week.
When a business owner decides to sell the company, there are different scenarios to consider ensuring the sale benefits the seller as much as possible. It’s imperative that the owner should understand the tax implications and how they relate to the company’s corporate structure. When starting a business or changing your business structure, one of the most common options business owners evaluate is whether to form an S corporation or C corporation. These are the two most common ways to incorporate, and the choice really depends on your business goals.

The benefits from an ESOP can provide meaningful value to the selling shareholder(s), the company and the employees participating in the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). Tax issues should not drive the decision to sell a business, but once the decision is made, the tax benefits of the ESOP make it a viable alternative to selling to a strategic buyer. This presentation takes a close look at the IRC section 1042 capital gains tax deferral that applies when selling a business to an ESOP.

7.1 Introduction
Recently, a steady stream of major financial scandals have rocked the business world. At one
point, Enron (in the United States) was one of the world’s largest utility companies. Within a year,
a massive accounting fraud was uncovered, leading to its bankruptcy. The U.S. communications
company WorldCom was found to have been covering a $3.8 billion fraud, inflating its asset values
to make it look financially healthier than it really was. More recently, the American businessman
Bernard Madoff defrauded some 4,800 clients—including many charities—of $65 billion.
Accountants are trained professionals who are accredited and licensed to provide professional
services concerning the accounts, audits, and reporting of corporations’ finances. Many are mem-
bers of professional organizations, such as the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants,
that have ethical principles or codes of professional conduct that members pledge to adhere
to. Like medical professionals, they are expected to live up to a professional reputation that has
developed over many decades. But innovation in the business world, as well as globalization, has

judgment and lead to accounting fraud. Such fraud is costly—in fact, it is estimated to cost the U.S.
economy over $300 billion annually.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
