Le programme a pour objectif de permettre aux participants d'acquérir l'ensemble du corpus de connaissances et les capacités techniques nécessaires à la régulation, la passation, l'exécution, le suivi et l'audit des marchés publics. Ce programme est unique et complet dans la mesure où il est construit sur les quatre piliers qui soutiennent les systèmes nationaux de régulation des marchés publics tels que définis par l'OCDE, ainsi que sur les cadres réglementaires nationaux et les procédures des principaux partenaires internationaux du développement (banques multilatérales de développement, organisations internationales, agences spécialisées, etc.). Ce master associe harmonieusement la théorie et la pratique tant au niveau de la régulation des marchés publics qu'au niveau de la passation, de l'exécution et de la gestion des marchés publics et des contrats.
