Report No. GAO-19-86R
Summary:

Financial management at DOD has been a High Risk issue since 1995, with unreliable financial reporting and little accountability over a trillion-dollar budget. Now DOD is trying to build a cadre of qualified financial managers to lead reforms.

We reviewed DOD's 2018 report to Congress on its training for officers assuming command or other financial management positions. DOD reported 147 financial management courses, and many are offered as part of a financial management certification program. But, DOD left out some programs, such as service-specific training that includes financial management topics for officers assuming command.
