On 26-27 October, the High School hosted a two-day training programme on the role of a manager in building an integrity environment of an organisation.
It should be noted that the programme was developed by the High School together with the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption as part of the implementation of the Measures for the Implementation of the State Anti-Corruption Programme for 2023-2025. The relevance of its implementation is dictated by the Strategy of Public Administration Reform of Ukraine for 2022-2025, which focuses on raising integrity standards in Ukraine.

Over the course of two days, 33 senior public servants improved their professional competencies in the area of integrity and the effective functioning of the organisation’s corruption prevention system.

The trainers of the event were Oleksandr NOVIKOV, Head of the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption, Ihor KHOKHYCH, Chief of Staff of the NAPC, Iryna CHAHOVETS, Head of the NAPC’s Department of Education and Training Programmes, and Iryna GRYSCHENKO, Professor, Associate Professor of the Department of Public Administration, Management of Innovation and Advisory Services of the National University of Life and Environmental Sciences of Ukraine.
