Evaluation in today's Australian Public Sector is a vital element in demonstrating and managing performance and supporting decision making at all levels in organisations and programs. Recent developments such as the public sector's focus on evidence-based policy; sound program management and implementation; and need for improved data collection, analysis and reporting on performance; requires public sector managers to understand and use evaluation as one of the key tools in meeting these imperatives.

The 2012 Federal Budget has now been handed down, its strengths and weakness will be debated, and its impact will occur for some time.
However,have you ever wondered how the Budget was developed and the financial framework in which Government entities operate? If so, this joint Department of Finance and Deregulation/IPAA event is a must for you.
The Australian Government's financial framework underpins most actions of Australian Public Service (APS) officials, and it is important that staff working for the APS, or for organisations that work with the Austalian Government, have a basic understanding of the key legislation and principles that support the resource activities of government entities: understand the Budget process and ongoing framework development in Commonwealth Financial Accountability Review (CFAR).
