CIPFA and ICAEW launch international reporting certificate

 CIPFA and ICAEW launched a Certificate in International Public Sector Financial Reporting (Cert IPSFR) at conferences in Leeds and London this month.
 
This new e-learning programme aims to develop an understanding of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS).

Designed for finance professionals in the public sector, it will help ensure they are prepared for the impact of these international reporting frameworks.

Leadership lessons at CIPFA conference
Sir Nicholas Montagu is to speak on leadership and change at CIPFA annual conference. As a civil servant for more than 30 years, Sir Nick led some of the most controversial change programmes in the public sector's history, including rail privatisation and the transformation of HM Revenue & Customs.

CIPFA conference takes place in Harrogate from 8-10 June. Book now for early bird discounts.

 
     

CIPFA shared services conference
As public finance professionals seek inspiration in balancing budgets without instigating sweeping cuts, the CIPFA Shared Services Conference will draw on the expertise of those already implementing shared service delivery to provide ideas and guidance on this developing service delivery option. Book here for the conference on 20 April. 

 
     

This week in Public Finance: Full speed ahead? 
Last week’s high-speed rail white paper confirmed that – despite the recession – the government’s £40bn programme is being given the green light. Christian Wolmar reports.
