With the establishment of republic states, a concept which denotes that the ownership of the state lies with people was evolved. State and the public institutions are maintained by the tax monies of people. Thus, the fundamental principle being established is that the people have the right to know information of which the functions of the state are accomplished using public funds.

Public Procurement has become a vital subject for optimization of value for money while ensuring good governance in a country. Most of the government officers and potential bidders have limited opportunities for following training programs on public procurement due to number of factors such as scarcity of qualified resource persons, unavailability of training opportunities in regional levels, limited availability of funds for training expenditure. Therefore, it has been decided to develop this online training progrmme for addressing such challenges. Contents of the programe have been developed focusing contemporary changes, best international and local practices of public procurement to maintain the high standard of professionalism in public procurement and thereby paving way for good governance through transparency, accountability and value for money. Under this circumstances the enthusiastic individuals are requested to make the best use of this learning opportunity and ensure that its essence will be productive and beneficial to the country as much as to your job performance and your future career prospects. We all at SLIDA wish you a fruitful and stimulating learning experience.
