The public sector works very differently from private business, and misunderstanding it creates serious risk. This session helps accountants understand how the public sector operates, where the pressure points are, and how to work safely without being exposed to audit findings, investigations, or blame.
R230,00 VAT incl.
Many accountants struggle in the public sector not because they lack technical skill, but because they misunderstand the environment they are working in. Different rules, slower processes, political pressure, and multiple layers of accountability change how decisions are made and how risk arises.
This session focuses on the real public sector context accountants operate in, not theory or policy language. It explains how governance, oversight, and accountability work in practice, and why public-sector work carries higher personal and professional risk.
The session is practical and realistic. Delegates will learn where things usually go wrong, how audit and oversight bodies think, and how to protect themselves when working with officials, managers, and structures under pressure. The aim is to help accountants work confidently and safely in the public sector environment.
What Will Set You Apart (What Delegates Will Learn)
Delegates will learn how the public sector environment really works, why decisions are made the way they are, and where accountants are most exposed. This allows them to navigate public-sector work with confidence, avoid common traps, and protect their professional reputation.
