|
Sharon Werner, ACP Tuesday, April 21, 2009 Did you know that the terms “merger” and “acquisitions” are not interchangeable? And what is “due diligence” anyway? This course aims at participants who have no, little or very limited M&A deal experience. Participants will be provided with a board overview of corporate mergers and acquisitions, and an understanding of the due diligence process. The course covers the M&A process, the different types of mergers and acquisitions, the fundamentals of the asset or stock transaction, and how to successfully manage the due diligence process. Sharon A. Werner has been a paralegal since 1984 and works in the Legal Department at Masco Corporation, Taylor, MI. She specializes in the areas of mergers & acquisitions, business formation and terminations and general corporate maintenance. She has a BS in Legal Administration from Grand Valley State University, and holds an ACP credential in Contracts Administration/Contracts Management and Business Organizations: Incorporated Entities. She has served the State Bar of Michigan Legal Assistants Section as secretary and was honored in 1999 with the Section’s Mentor Award. She has served NALA in many capacities, including CEC Chair, On-Line Education Chair, Treasurer, Secretary, and currently serves as Second Vice President. |
