TRAINING OBJECTIVES

INTRODUCTION

During the last decade, Results-Based Management (RBM) has gained much influence in international cooperation. Still many organisations struggle to plan for real results with the accompanying processes and tools. RBM has consequences for the entire organisation: for project planning, monitoring, evaluation and learning. Learning how to design a solid RBM framework - in various forms – is a good first step to integrate RBM in your organisation.

TRAINING OBJECTIVES

Evaluate with confidence and make a meaningful difference with a qualification from Australia’s leading university.

ABOUT THE COURSE
The Do No Harm (DNH) concepts are widely used in the humanitarian and development communities and it is one of the best known tools for Peace and Conflict Impact Analysis. Assistance is often misused by people in conflicts to pursue a political or military agenda.

Improving learning and accountability

Management of projects and programmes is complex. A close study of planning and implementation improves efficiency and effectiveness. Monitoring and evaluating the processes provide a systematic means to improve your development projects, programmes and increase organizational performance. This course provides quantitative indicator-based system for Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) as well as more qualitative tools (Outcome Mapping and Most Significant Change). The course is proactive and participatory.
