Public Sector Financial Management for Non-Specialists
2 days|Delivered on request
Public Sector Financial Management for Non-Specialists is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through fraud detection and internal controls without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because audit findings are now a reputational matter as much as a technical one, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with revenue recognition, audit readiness and cost allocation in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Bring revenue recognition into line with current good practice, measured against GRAP for public entities
- Explain audit readiness to someone who does not do the work
- Put cost allocation on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Review lease accounting and say plainly whether it is working
