Raising the bar: The enhanced PEFA framework

This year, Fiscus Limited, have developed and run a series of training course on the recently launched 2016 PEFA Assessment Framework. In particular, this has included training events in Kinshasa (DRC), Freetown (Sierra Leone) and at our offices in Oxford.

These events draw upon materials we have prepared for a composite 3-day course, titled Raising the bar: the enhanced PEFA framework, this has been developed to support public finance management specialists from governments, donor agencies and consultancies in undertaking, managing and using PEFA assessments at both national and sub-national levels.

The training materials provide a detailed introduction to the new PEFA indicator set, an explanation of changes from previous frameworks, and ideas for effective application. Making use of a unique case-study approach, the materials will enable participants to gain a realistic and context-specific understanding of PEFA.

Details of our trainers, and how to apply are listed below. If you are interested in undertaking or organising training on the PEFA 2016 framework, please contact the Fiscus Team.

 

 

 The Fiscus team will run this course. The fees cover 3 days of tuition and interactive activities, training materials, readings, attendance certificates and lunch and refreshments, and bed and breakfast accommodation all within St Catherine’s College.
