Ethics in the Public Service Auditing and Assurance
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is written from the assurance side. Delegates learn to test whether municipal budgeting and records management are working as claimed, and how to evidence the conclusion. Assurance work is under scrutiny because officials are held personally accountable under legislation many have never been trained on. Delegates leave able to work confidently with audit action planning, intergovernmental relations and ethics in the public service in their own organisation.
