COURSE DESCRIPTION

They will upgrade their professional standards and practices and prepare a strategy for improved sustainability of the unit they are managing. The course draws on ILO practices and experiences accumulated as a result of organizations wide engagements in management and small business development. It is practical in nature, providing real tools and insights, and drawing out the wisdom and experiences already gained by members of the group. AS a management course, it is designed to breakdown participants’ perspective, management potential and resource base, not just to convey technical topics.
