This training was conducted to enhance the transparency and efficiency of local subsidies and to prevent improper execution. Attendees studied the overall manual contents, including laws and guidelines related to subsidy execution, reaffirming the importance of fair financial management.

In particular, specific standards for execution by budget item and methods for handling supporting documents were presented to private institutions unfamiliar with accounting tasks.
