Developed and delivered through a partnership between the Department of Treasury and Public Sector Commission, Technical and Leadership Capabilities for CFOs aims to enhance financial management of public sector agencies through investment in and support of its finance leaders.
The program drives uplift in expertise and knowledge to better equip all chief finance officers with both the requisite financial capabilities and the essential leadership capabilities to maximise public sector effectiveness and deliver increased value to the community.
It includes detailed technical skills development to enable CFOs and agencies to meet the standards required by the Financial Management Act 2006 and other legislative requirements as well as the State Budget process.
It also provides contemporary leadership development that enables CFOs to create and maintain high performing finance teams that meet the needs of their agencies, the state’s financial management framework and oversight bodies such as the Auditor General.
In short, it’s everything CFOs need to excel in their vitally important role of overseeing all aspects of agency financial management and certifying agency financial statements for annual reporting to Parliament.
The program is delivered in 2 parts:
Each CFO is also appointed an executive partner to support their development.
