If you are a public company, your XBRL time has come! The market has entered year 3 of the SEC’s three-year roll out of mandatory XBRL submissions for all US GAAP domestic filers.

Depending on your year-end, you may be required to start sometime between August and January. When do you start What do you have to do What’s the best way to do it In this session, small public companies will gain the knowledge they need to plan, prepare and make the most from the mandate.
