Empower decision makers with actionable insights that enable strategic funding of high-impact programs, ensuring resources are allocated to community priorities.

This program uses interactive sessions to teach the process of implementing priority-based budgeting and applying the data to budget creation and decision making.

Advantages of Priority-Based Budgeting:

  • Offers transparency into what services the government provides and how much it costs to provide them.
  • Allows more meaningful comparisons to other service providers when considering options such as outsourcing or shared services.
  • Shows how personnel are affiliated with different programs, making it easier to understand where the workforce is spending its time.
  • Gives cost context to programs using invaluable data points rather than categorizing them by department.
  • Includes program alignment to community priorities to ensure the funded programs reflect community needs.
  • Gives decision makers more insight to fund the right programs rather than those that were predefined.
  • Directs funds straight to community priorities.

Who Should Attend:

This program is for people who have already mastered the fundamentals and want to learn a specific form of budgeting: priority-based budgeting.
