The 2003 Symposium on Performance-Based Budgeting in Government

Enhance your Budget Submissions and Funding Requests
Performance budgeting is a dynamic concept that attempts to link agency budget requests to anticipated results and outcomes. By aligning your resources to the agency strategic plan, performance budgeting allows departments to meet required goals while being fiscally responsible. To ensure your agency’s success, this seminar will present frameworks on establishing performance measures for budget submissions, as well as developing Logic Model methodology.

Master Tactics for Effectively Managing your Resources

Step One: Selecting Goals and Measures for Inclusion in Budget Submission
