The New Regulations for Financial Management and Audit of EU Structural and Cohesion Funds: lessons from 2014-2020 and key issues for 2021-2027
_How have the __Financial Management and Audit rules changed for the new
2021-2027 period? What do new Programmes look like and what will be the key
issues for finance and audit? There is some doubt that the Recovery and
Resilience Facility (RRF) will be subject to the same financial rigours as
Cohesion Policy funding. Can the new Structural Funds programmes and the
RRF plans learn lessons from the 2014-2020 programming period for Cohesion
Policy?_
This course will compare the Financial Management and Audit rules between
the 2014-2020 and 2021-2027 programming periods. There will be a special
focus on financial planning, increasing the use of Simplified Costs
Options, anti-fraud measures and protecting the audit trail.
Understanding EU Decision-Making: Principles, Procedures, Practice (16 and 22-24 March 2023)
Each day will end early or mid-afternoon to allow ample time to process the content, prepare for the next day, and do any necessary work related tasks.
We believe learning happens best with practical knowledge. So this course includes:
• Extensive insights with multiple examples and real life cases
• Group exercises
• Role plays and simulation games
• Inputs from experienced EU practitioners as the basis for discussion among participants about the practical demands of participation in the various stages of decision-making.
