Abstract: This study examines the critical role of workforce capacity building in advancing sustainable accounting practices within U.S. public organizations. Through an analysis of professional development programs and training interventions, this research investigates how public sector finance personnel acquire competencies in sustainability accounting and international financial standards, including IPSAS (International Public Sector Accounting Standards) and GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) . The findings reveal significant gaps in current training frameworks and highlight the transformative potential of comprehensive capacity-building initiatives. This research contributes to the growing literature on sustainability accounting in the public sector by providing empirical evidence of effective training methodologies and their impact on organizational performance and accountability
