CIPFA conference 2010: last chance for early bird booking

Whatever the outcome of the general election, spending cuts and a new wave of reforms will create new challenges and risks for people managing public money and public services. With outstanding speakers and practial workshops, this year’s CIPFA annual conference will help provide delegates with the strategic insight and skills they need to succeed in the years ahead.

 Former Lib Dem leader Charles Kennedy and political broadcaster Nick Robinson are just two of the high-profile speakers on the main stage. Beyond the plenary sessions, workshop topics include how to maximise efficiency savings with technology, asset management, and shared services. 

Book now to take advantage of early bird discounts.

Introduction to local government finance
There is still time to book your place for the Introduction to Local Government Finance seminar on 22 April in London. As well as an overview on the funding process, you will have the opportunity to hear the latest on Total Place and the impact of the recession and the imminent election on local government finance.  

 
     

Public Finance: banking on us
