Ensuring Integrity: Conflict of Interest and Transparency in the Control and Audit of EU Funds

Ensuring Integrity: Conflict of Interest and Transparency in the Control and Audit of EU Funds - Pictures Events 2023 15

This three-day hybrid course offers a comprehensive overview of the legal, procedural, and ethical aspects of auditing EU funds. We will explore key topics such as management verifications, irregularities, audit strategies, system and operational audits, and the preparation of the assurance package. Special focus is given to conflict-of-interest prevention, transparency obligations, segregation of duties, and effective risk assessment. Expert presentations, real-life case studies, and hands-on exercises will strengthen your ability to identify and address irregularities, enhance transparency in audit processes, and ensure compliance with EU regulations.

Participants receive a certificate upon participation.

Previous Participants Said

“Thank you for organising the delivery of this course which went really well.  The breakout rooms were a novel and worthy idea. It was also helpful to have the slides which are very useful resources for our work”.

“Everything was perfect. The topic, the issues tackled, the presenters. I had again the feeling that we are one community. I had private communication with some speakers and they were really very helpful.”

“This was my first experience in a Lexxion online seminar. Great organisation. Big “Thank you” to the organisers and presenters!”

Methodology

The three-day intensive course offers the possibility to meet with experts from EU institutions, Member States as well as the private sector. The different perspectives of our experienced trainers will support you in applying complex rules to your practical day-to-day work. To achieve the best results, a mix of learning methods will be applied in the course.

Our approach combines the three stages of learning to ensure that the participants obtain the best possible understanding of the applied rules:

1) Identification of the main rules and principles,
2) Appreciation of the complexities and limitation of the principles,
3) Application of the rules and principles.

The participants will be actively involved in the course. The sessions will combine presentations, case studies and discussion on practical problems. You will have ample opportunity to present your own issues and discuss them with the speakers and participants from other Member States.

Just send to us your cases and questions in advance! We will forward them to our speakers, who will include your issues in the programme and answer them during the course. All information concerning such problems and cases will be treated confidentially.
