Municipal Infrastructure Grants: Tools and Techniques
3 days|Delivered on request
This is a hands-on programme. Delegates spend most of the time working through intergovernmental relations and ethics in the public service on live scenarios rather than listening to theory about them. The practical emphasis is deliberate: officials are held personally accountable under legislation many have never been trained on, and reading about the method has repeatedly proved insufficient. Delegates leave able to work confidently with public finance management, grant management and integrated development planning in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Improve public finance management within their own organisation, measured against the Municipal Systems Act
- Bring grant management into line with current good practice
- Make a decision about integrated development planning without waiting for a specialist
- Spot where irregular expenditure is failing before it becomes a finding
