This course will address these questions and examine the programme and financial templates for the new programmes. There will be a special focus on simplifying management verifications, extending the use of simplified cost options and protecting the audit trail.
We will be joined by highly experienced, leading practitioners from the Member States: Dermot Byrne, from the Audit Authority of Ireland, and Julia Szenthe, from an Austrian Managing Authority.
What you will learn?
Practical issues to be discussed will include:
programme finance, financial tables and the significant flexibility proposed for 2021-2027
key issues for the eligibility of expenditure
the extended use of simplified cost options and how to choose between them
how to make management verifications simpler and more efficient
complementarity between Cohesion Policy programmes and the RRF
how control and audit differ and how to conduct audits of accounts, systems and operations
how to deal with risk, irregularities and corrections
How we work
We aim to make the course as interactive as possible. Participants will have ample opportunity to exchange views informally on the course topics. Workshops and exercises will be used to help participants get to grips with practical tools and methodologies.
