Municipal Finance for Small and Medium Enterprises
3 days|Delivered on request
Municipal Finance for Small and Medium Enterprises takes the discipline and works it through the constraints of this operating context, including council procedure, ethics in the public service and the compliance obligations that come with it. The sector framing is necessary because service delivery failures usually trace back to planning rather than to budget, and generic training rarely survives contact with the local rules. Delegates leave able to work confidently with performance management in government, municipal budgeting and supply chain compliance in government in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Put performance management in government on a footing they can defend to a reviewer, measured against the Municipal Systems Act
- Take ownership of municipal budgeting rather than escalating it
