Advanced Public Finance Management
5 days|Delivered on request
This advanced programme assumes delegates already work in the field. It goes past the basics into intergovernmental relations, supply chain compliance in government and the judgement calls that sit outside the Batho Pele principles. At this level the constraint is rarely knowledge. It is judgement under pressure, which matters because audit outcomes have become the dominant measure of municipal performance. Delegates leave able to work confidently with audit action planning, council procedure and performance management in government in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Explain audit action planning to someone who does not do the work, measured against the Batho Pele principles
- Spot where council procedure is failing before it becomes a finding
