Leadership
Back

This webinar bridges the gap between the original round of nine Managing Pubic Money (MPM) Round tables and the emerging sector messages captured in a forthcoming report. It supports the ongoing dialogue and engagement around MPM in the FE sector, building on prior guidance including the dear accounting officer letter , bitesize guidance spring 2023 and the College financial handbook which came into effect from 1 August 2024 and oversight support and intervention guidance also with effect from August 2024.

Who is this for?

This session is aimed at those who were unable to attend the earlier MPM roundtables and want to catch up on key messages, reflections from the sector, and outcomes drawn from the collective conversations. It is intended for those in positions of influence or decision-making regarding the use of public funds and organisational governance in the FE sector. This includes Finance Directors, Chief Financial Officers, governors, governance professionals, HR Directors, and senior leaders accountable for financial integrity and culture change.

Training aim

The aim of this session is to reconnect the sector with the Managing Public Money discussion by summarising guidance and insights from the original roundtables, providing updates on recent developments, and previewing the key themes captured in the upcoming sector report. It supports sector-wide reflection and promotes sustained improvement in financial governance and public accountability.
