“Before the prepared form 990 is filed with the irs, a draft of the return is first reviewed by wisconsin education association council's financial analyst. A draft of the return is then posted on a password-protected website. The members of the governing body are notified that a draft of the return is available for their review, questions, comments, and/or changes. The prepared form 990 is filed with the irs upon approval of the members of the governing body, either explicitly or implicitly if a director does not provide questions or comments within one week after the draft of the return is posted.”

“The organization adopted the parent organization's conflict of interest policy that covers all directors and officers. Annually the directors sign a statement confirming that they do not have a conflict of interest. The organization's president determines whether or not a conflict of interest exists. If the president has a potential conflict of interest, the remaining directors determine whether or not a conflict of interest exists. Actual conflicts of interest are reviewed by the president or by the remaining directors if the conflict of interest involves the president. Generally, individuals with a conflict of interest are excluded from the governing body's deliberations and decisions on the matter.”

“The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request.”
