The PEFA Secretariat is pleased to announce that it will be conducting a regional PEFA training event in Vienna, Austria from June 19-21, 2018.  The training is intended for government officials and staff of development partners involved in planning, managing or undertaking a PEFA assessment and/or public financial management (PFM) reform strategies or initiatives, as well as researchers and other PEFA users. 

The training program will provide participants with an overview of the upgraded PEFA 2016 framework for assessing countries’ PFM performance; set out the phases, steps, tasks and responsibilities in planning and managing a typical PEFA assessment process; and provide guidance on how to use the results of a PEFA assessment to inform and support PFM reform efforts.

The program will include practical ‘hands-on’ exercises using interactive case studies to build and/or strengthen knowledge on the planning, implementation, and use of PEFA 2016.

At the end of the training, participants will have:

  • Improved their understanding of the PEFA 2016 framework;
  • Strengthened their capacities to engage in, and support, the PEFA assessment process;
  • Increased their skills in applying PEFA performance indicators and preparing high quality PEFA reports;
  • Improved their confidence in discussing assessment findings and possible reform implications;
  • Increased their understanding in use PEFA assessment results to support PFM reform design, implementation, and monitoring; and
