TBLS Lecturer Laura Panades was invited to attend high-level training on avoidance of fraud in public procurement.
Public procurement is the area of the law that regulates the public sector purchases of goods and services from the private sector.
This was an intense 3-day training covering practical aspects on how to detect fraud in procurement.
The training took place on 29 to 31 October at the Hotel Indigo in Grand Cayman.
The event put together hundreds of procurement leaders across the entire civil service, to build expertise across Government.
The event was organised by the Cayman Islands Central Procurement Office, in partnership with the US Association of Certified Fraud Examiners.
Panades is extremely grateful to the Ministry of Finance and Economic Development for sponsoring the training, and the Portfolio of Legal Affairs, for having supported her attendance.
Laura Panades, Lecturer in Law and researcher on Caymanian public procurement, said:
“Avoidance of fraud in procurement is essential to keep building Cayman’s good reputation and outlook.
“This training has enabled me to continue to enhance my contributions with the aim of improving the quality of Government’s laws, policies and procedures through my research.”
