Event Description

The European Court of Auditors (ECA) carries out three types of audits under EU Cohesion Policy: financial, compliance and performance audits. Each of them have different objectives and addresses different audit questions.
The new legal framework 2014-2020 aspires to be a more results-oriented spending framework, where performance and results are the new key words.
This highly practical two-day course covers all aspects of each stage of the performance audit process. It includes the unique feature of providing an insight into how the European Court of Auditors plan, prepare and implement their audit assignments, and it covers real audit case studies and experiences of the Court’s teams
