Description
Nothing is more basic to government auditing than the control and review of the authorized and proper use of appropriated funds for their intended purpose. Auditors have a responsibility, to be keenly aware of the propriety in the application and flow of funds, from the original sources, to their ultimate uses. This course, using the GAO’s Principles of Federal Appropriations Law (the “Red Book”), gives audit professionals that basic knowledge, highlighting particular areas as “Auditor Alerts” and red flags to potential Antideficiency violations. These include principles or helpful hints for areas and activities where auditors are most likely to find that financial management and operating personnel have run afoul of appropriations law rules. This course covers case studies along with deciding opinions. This course is part of the Certified Government Auditor (CGA) program, Level 1.Duration
