A New Service Model: Auditor Roles in Government Performance Measures
Nov. 18, 2009
2 CPE Hours Available!

 

AGA, in conjunction with the National Association of State Auditors, Comptrollers and Treasurers (NASACT) and the Association of Local Government Auditors (ALGA) is pleased to announce a new and increasingly important topic to our audio conference schedule—the auditor’s role in government performance measures.

Government auditors can increase their value by taking on new roles and practices aimed at improving performance measurement and management. Audio conference participants will learn how to apply an organized framework to determine which specific practices provide the best opportunities for adding new value to the entity they serve. The framework will be presented in the context of models of effective governance, service delivery, managing for results and organizational learning. Situational examples and case histories will help participants learn:

§         Where to obtain tools used by innovative auditors for implementing these practices.

§         How to change auditor roles and practices used over time to keep adding more value as performance management in their government entity evolves.

To share their practical experiences in auditing and views towards government performance measures are Paul D. Epstein, Project Manager, Auditor Roles in Government Performance Measurement, and Leader of the Results That Matter Team, Epstein & Fass Associates; Sam McCall, Ph.D., CGFM, CPA, CIA, CGAP, City Auditor for the City of Tallahassee, FL and Past AGA National President; and Stephen L. Morgan, CIA, CGAP, CGFM, CFE, former City Auditor of Austin, Texas.

Please join us for two hours of lively discussion about this important and timely topic. In addition to the speaker’s commentary, there will be approximately 20 minutes for Q & A so that the participants can ask the speaker questions and share their own experiences.
