Audit Readiness in the Public Sector
3 days|Delivered on request
Audit Readiness in the Public Sector takes the discipline and works it through the constraints of this operating context, including financial statement preparation, lease accounting and the compliance obligations that come with it. The sector framing is necessary because reporting standards keep moving and finance teams carry the consequence of getting them wrong, and generic training rarely survives contact with the local rules. Delegates leave able to work confidently with cash flow forecasting, budgeting and variance analysis and deferred tax in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about cash flow forecasting without waiting for a specialist, measured against IFRS
- Spot where budgeting and variance analysis is failing before it becomes a finding
- Take ownership of deferred tax rather than escalating it
