Invest in Your Future: New 2016-2017 Public Finance Courses
ATLANTA – The Center for State and Local Finance (CSLF) recently launched the third year of its executive education program with a series of six core courses — and two new special sessions — tailored for chief financial officers and those who aspire to be chief financial officers.
Registration is now open for the 2016-2017 courses. (Download a program flyer.)
CSLF developed its program after extensive feedback from veteran chief financial officers who emphasized the need for in-depth, high-quality training for those pursuing senior management positions in government.
Our courses focus on the strategic thinking and analytic skills that public finance leaders need to advance in the field and inspire good governance, going beyond basic content knowledge.
Course options include:
·June 16-17: Forecasting (Special Session)
·July 13-15: Treasury and investment management
·Aug. 11-12: Cost Analysis (Special Session)
·Sept. 21-23: Debt management
·Nov. 1-4: Operating and capital budgeting
·Feb. 6-8: Leadership
·March 7-10: Government financial statements and accounting
·May 17-19: Retirement, risk management and procurement
CSLF draws on world-class faculty from the Andrew Young School of Policy Studies, which is among the top-ranked programs in the country in public finance and budgeting. Leading experts from the public and private sector also are invited to teach and guest lecture.
Space is limited, so early registration is advised. As a special bonus, public-sector employees receive a 30 percent discount on tuition. For more information and to register, visit our website at cslf.gsu.edu/training or contact us at cslf@gsu.edu or 404-413-0327.
