Event Description

About this course

This highly practical three-day course will give you a complete overview and detailed understanding of all practical aspects of control (external and internal) and audit of EU funds in the programming period 2014–2020 and foreseen changes in 2021-2027. It covers:

  • Relevant legislation in the current programming period and the 2021-2027;
  • Methods of increasing efficiency of control and audits;
  • Combating fraud and preventing irregularities;
  • Practical know-how through workshops on audit of public procurement, audit of state aid and performance audit.

The unique feature of this course is that it combines the experience of internal and external audit experts from the European Commission (EC), the European Court of Auditors (ECA), the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) and Member States.

What will you be able to do with what you learn?

You will improve your knowledge about errors, irregularities and fraud in ESIF co-financed projects with special focus on public procurement and state aid. You will also learn how financial, compliance and performance audits should be carried out and how these audits will function in the programming period 2021-2027.
