Intergovernmental Relations Auditing and Assurance
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is written from the assurance side. Delegates learn to test whether annual reporting and audit action planning are working as claimed, and how to evidence the conclusion. Assurance work is under scrutiny because service delivery failures usually trace back to planning rather than to budget. Delegates leave able to work confidently with municipal budgeting, consequence management and irregular expenditure in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Bring municipal budgeting into line with current good practice, measured against the MFMA
- Make a decision about consequence management without waiting for a specialist
