Governance Masterclass for the Public Sector

Governance Institute of Australia offers senior public sector professionals a Masterclass event that will enrich their governance and risk management knowledge with an injection of the latest thinking and robust discussions on real challenges specific to Western Australia.

Masters of practice in these essential areas within the Public Sector will provide you with tips, tools and techniques to ensure you are well-equipped to apply your knowledge.

The theme this year centres on a report by Colin Murphy, Auditor General for Western Australia, on his findings and recommendations about governance for public sector boards.

We’ve created an agenda that looks at the areas of concern outlined in the report and arranged expert industry leaders to provide take-away ‘how to implement’ information. As time is at a premium, we have also designed the agenda to give you the option of either attending the full day or just half a day.
