REGISTER YOUR PLACE: Tackling Covid-19 Fraud Across the Public Sector
This two day online conference will examine successful methods of tackling fraud and corruption in the public sector that have arisen as a result of Covid-19. With the help of experienced counter fraud professionals, delegates will explore practical guidance on implementing effective data matching practices, building a counter-fraud culture and developing in-house capacity to recover public funds.
This online event was very well organised with a fantastic range of topics and very experienced speakers. It has given me a lot of food for thought which I will be sharing across relevant services in Sutton.
Commissioning Manager - Children in Care - London Borough Of Sutton Council
Interesting, excellent content, great to hear from other local authorities and what they are doing with regards to property licensing to address widespread management and disrepair issues in the PRS.
Environmental Health Manager - London Borough of Islington
This training course exceeded my expectations and blew me away by how good it was. I've taken away lots of practical tools, and have learnt how to do the testing myself so I can now test the council's website.
Webmaster Developer - North Devon District Council
This was an insightful, interesting event. I'm looking forward to going through all the new resources that were provided and sharing them with my team. Both trainers were very helpful and knowledgeable.
Digital Communications Officer - Brighton & Hove City Council
This online conference was very informative and I will pass all information gathered here back to the team and make changes where needed which will enable us to deliver better services to all the young people in our community.
Personal Advisor - Southend On Sea Borough Council
A great opportunity to hear about numerous networks and partnerships to provide digital skills to people who are lacking skills and have become excluded as a result.
Employability and Skills Project Co-ordinator - East Sussex County Council
A great day dedicated to gaining a better understanding of loneliness, especially in light of the Covid-19 pandemic. Fantastic speakers and case studies to inspire everyone.

The training session was very well run, the content was clear, appropriate and insightful. The speakers were very knowledgeable and clearly experienced.
Business Change Manager - Sheffield City Council
Predicting the future of infrastructure as vital as the country's Road Network could seem impossible. Being able to listen to some of the leading thinkers, innovators and policy-makers in this field makes the impossible feel that little bit more possible, and the future a little less opaque.
PCS Union Chair - Highways England
It was an interesting conference with lots of speakers describing the approaches taken by their organisations to modernise and transform their people, place and technology.
OD Partner - London Borough Of Southwark Council
A really useful event on a very topical subject. We are starting out on our Climate Emergency journey and it is really important to understand the practical and viable considerations - this was a real help to understanding some of the raft of information that is out there!
Lead Specialist-Environmental Health - South Somerset District Council
Great course, I gained a good insight into what my organisation needs to put in place for our website accessibility and compliance.
