Course Description

Human health and the environment are important considerations no matter where you live. Governments are increasing their focus on environmental concerns which can lead to an increase in funding in environmental programs, the creation of new programs, or expanded responsibilities in existing programs.

What You Will Learn

In this session we will discuss how to identify risks, conduct audits and provide oversight in new or expanded programs. You will also hear examples of audits and evaluations of new or expanded programs conducted by EPA Office of Inspector General.
