Ethics in the Public Service for Non-Specialists
2 days|Delivered on request
Ethics in the Public Service for Non-Specialists is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through service delivery planning and council procedure without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because audit outcomes have become the dominant measure of municipal performance, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with integrated development planning, municipal budgeting and public finance management in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Spot where integrated development planning is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against the PFMA
- Bring municipal budgeting into line with current good practice
- Take ownership of public finance management rather than escalating it
- Improve grant management within their own organisation
