High level technical capability is critical to ensure public sector agencies not only have robust financial processes and systems in place but that these processes are understood and used effectively.
Technical capability modules are being developed to strengthen the role and status of public sector CFOs by improving financial acumen to align with their roles and responsibilities. The modules will help ensure CFOs have the skills and knowledge necessary to assume full accountability for financial and budgetary matters, and achieve government desired outcomes and fiscal targets.
By embracing a mindset of continuous improvement, CFOs can elevate their performance, lift the technical capability of the sector and inspire the finance leaders of tomorrow.
Technical modules
Technical Module 1: Key Fundamentals for CFOs in the Public Sector
Technical Module 2: Budget Process for CFOs
Technical Module 3: Financial Risk Management and Internal Controls for CFOs
Design and content of these modules are under development with expected topics to include governance, strategic financial planning and budging, data informed decision making and internal controls.
Frequency and duration
There is one intake a year for each technical module.
Further details will be provided once these modules are available.
