Shelter is never more important than in times of crisis. For poor vulnerable families, a house can be their largest asset. The loss of a house leaves them exposed to ill health, poor security, indignity and poverty.

individual and organisationalcapacity to mount faster, higher quality responses in shelter interventions.

Decision makers (ACD/CD level) within organisationswho set strategy, approach and modality of interventions require a basic knowledge of project management for shelter projects.

Secondary audiences may include M&E staff and other technical staff, particularly WASH staff.

Training objectives:

To enable generalist managers to understand the key concepts required for the project management of a shelter response
To increase the number of humanitarian practitioners able to manage a good quality shelter program

The pilot training will be coordinated and managed by CARE Indonesia with support from CARE UK and ECB team in Indonesia.

RESPONSIBILITIES AND TASKS

In addition, administration controls are reviewed in the areas of program and sponsor services to assure appropriate controls and verification of records, files and data.

4. Methodology, Deliverables and Time Table

a. Methodology

In conducting the audit, the auditor must use the ChildFund provided audit program in the Assurance Management System (HQMS).

HQMS is a web-based system that provides integrated modules for performing audits and assigning and tracking corrective actions. HQMS is installed as a web site on a central server at the International Headquarters Office in Richmond , Virginia and is accessible anywhere in the world through the internet. Users access the website using Microsoft’s Internet Explorer and login and navigate the system the same way they would access any other web page. HQMS is an English based system. This will allow consistency in the input of information and provide the greatest overall benefit to the organization. Audit Firms must be capable of reading, writing and understanding English.

The HQMS system allows the National Offices and audit firms to closely monitor the progress of the field work throughout the audit. Issues can be addressed as they arise.

Upon completion of the Affiliated Entities audit, the audit firm will meet with and report the findings to the senior management of the Affiliated Entity and National Office for discussion, review, clarification and conclusions. This meeting will also serve to establish corrective action recommendations and timelines for implementation.

Any supporting documentation or other work papers resulting from the audit should be retained by the independent auditor and be available should questions arise. Supporting documents that the audit firm feels should be included with the audit should be attached as references in the HQMS system were possible.

b. Deliverables

HQMS eliminates the need for any hard copy reports being submitted. All audits, findings and corrective action are tracked by the system. NO, RO and IO Assurance will have access to the data and be able to run management reports as needed.

This additional information is at the professional discretion of the auditor.

Management Letter (Optional)

The report is referred to as item 7 on the Audited Financials checklist.

The Management Letter is listed on the checklist in case the auditors need a place to attach issues or findings they encounter that are not already addressed somewhere else in the audit program.

Other Comments
The auditor should state any comments that would disclose potential risk areas or opportunities to improve the effectiveness of the control environment and CO operations.

Before finalizing the audit report, the auditor must discuss the finding(s) with the respective AE and Senior Management Team (SMT) of ChildFund Indonesia in 2 (two) copies
