February 25, 2011 – Karachi: Pakistan Army provides continued education and training to its senior officers. It was considered that an exposure to the best practices and techniques used by corporate world for financial management and good governance will diversify the knowledge base of senior officers in managing the resources.

The Commandant of Pakistan Army Ordnance School Malir Cantt, therefore, approached JCR-VIS to structure a short course on financial management for senior army officers. After discussions with him JCR-VIS developed a two day program covering a number of subjects such as:-

• Modern Financial Management Concepts.
• Inventory Management.
• Procurement Best Practices.
• Budgeting & Planning.
• Containing Risk and Promoting Efficiency in Large Development Projects.
• Corporate Governance.

JCR-VIS used its own experts as well as external experts to cover the above topics.

The program was offered on February 23rd & 24th, 2011 at Ordnance School. It was a great success and was much appreciated by the participating senior army officers.
