Understand the key principles of public financial management
The public sector provides a wide range of important services to citizens, including healthcare, education, transport, policing, justice and defence.
This online course, run in partnership with The Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy, introduces you to the main features of public sector financial management, in a way that allows you to apply them to your own context.
You’ll discover how there is more to public finance than taxes, understand where public money comes from, and examine how and why it gets spent.
This course provides a practical introduction for anyone drawn to working in public financial management, as well as essential continuous professional development for early career public finance professionals.
It is also suitable for managers in public bodies and charities, whose roles involve public financial management - for example, doctors, librarians, social workers, police officers, engineers or civil servants.
