Event Description
This course provides a concise overview of how accountants can use Google NotebookLM (powered by Gemini) as a practical research, synthesis, and knowledge-management companion for high-trust work. You'll learn how to convert static financial statements, audit workpapers, client documents, and regulatory guidance into a structured, conversational knowledge base-so you can query, summarize, compare, and cross-reference sources with greater speed and clarity. This course emphasizes disciplined workflows such as source control, evidence-grounded outputs, and professional judgment so NotebookLM strengthens your analysis instead of replacing it.
This event may be a rebroadcast of a live event and the instructor will be available to answer your questions during the event.
