/><br
/><em>Understanding influences on monitoring and evaluation strategy</em><br
/>A consideration of internal and external influences which drive the project definition and the approach taken towards monitoring<br
/>and evaluation projects.<br
/><br
/><em>Developing a Business Case to support monitoring and evaluation</em><br
/>An in depth consideration as to what should be included in a business case to get approval for monitoring and evaluation projects.<br
/>Financial and non-financial elements are considered. Since many of the benefits identified may be intangible, consideration is given as to how this can be effectively presented in a manner that is appealing to the Project Sponsor.<br
/><br
/><em>Developing a stakeholder management and communication strategy</em><br
/>This session addresses the challenge of understanding and managing the needs and expectations of multiple stakeholders. Consideration is given to methods of identifying and analyzing the stakeholders before determining the most appropriate way of managing and communicating with them throughout the monitoring and evaluation lifecycle.<br
/><br
/><em>Effective requirements gathering for monitoring and evaluation</em><br
/>A consideration of the various techniques available to elicit requirements together with the attributes of a good requirement. Further consideration will be given as to how to manage requirements and ensure requirements are traceable.<br
/><br
/><em>Determining Critical Success Factors and Key Performance Indicators</em><br
/>An evaluation as to what is meant by Critical Success Factors and Key Performance Indicators, how these relate to organization and local objectives and how to ensure a balanced range of measures is achieved.<br
/><br
/><em>Modelling the current and future state</em><br
/>In order to effectively define and communicate the change that will be delivered, a range of models will be considered that help to<br
/>define the current situation and how this will be improved through the monitoring and evaluation project.<br
/><br
/><em>Scope and change management</em><br
/>It is vital that the scope of the project is fully understood and that change is managed so as to avoid this causing a monitoring and<br
/>evaluation project to fail. This session considers scope management techniques available to the practitioner, common causes of<br
/>change and a stable change control process that can be used to manage requests for change.<br
/><br
/><em>Identifying and delivering sustainable impacts</em><br
/>Since the most effective projects are sustainable, consideration is given as to questions that must be asked to determine how sustainable an impact will be. A resource audit is used to look at local capacity and capability and to provide an indication of further support that may be required from the delivery organization.<br
/><br
/><em>Effectively leading a monitoring and evaluation project</em><br
/>Monitoring and evaluation projects require effective leadership. The fourth day starts with a consideration of the attributes of an<br
/>effective leader and leadership theories that can be applied in a practical way to improve project performance.<br
/><br
/><em>Managing a team through the monitoring and evaluation lifecycle</em><br
/>Monitoring and evaluation projects involve a range of people who enable the project to be successful. This session considers how to manage a team effectively, how to get the members to support the change that is being delivered and how to ensure the team is more skilled at the end of the project than at the commencement.<br
/><br
/><em>Creating a learning culture within monitoring and evaluation</em><br
/>Organizations and individuals must commit to learning from conception to closure. This session of the course promotes the benefits of continuous learning and development and methods that can be used to prove this contributes to project success.<p>Cost: 3995 USD</p><p>Duration: 5 Days</p>					]]>				  </description>				  <pubDate>Mon, 29 May 2017 20:39:59 +04</pubDate>				</item> 								<item><title><![CDATA[Supportive Supervision Techniques  -

If the inputs are nonsensical, the valuation output will unquestionably be nonsensical. For this reason, a large section of this course is devoted to understanding and modeling valuation inputs including adjustments to financial statements.<br
/>This intensive three-days workshop offers in-depth and practical analysis of the different valuation techniques that can be used to value different entities. It will also examine the use of real options modeling that are used to value patents, contracts, natural resources and for various other applications. The workshop will focus on the framework that can be used to pick the right model for any task and it will also extensively expose delegates to the modeling of various real life valuation cases.<br
/>Companies are valued for the purposes of investment, mergers and acquisitions or as part of internal measures of financial control. There are many different approaches to the valuation of companies and it is paramount to know when and how to apply what method. It is also essential to understand that company valuation is not an absolute science but also based on interpretation and judgment. In the broadest possible terms, firms or assets can be valued in one of four ways: asset based valuation approaches, discounted cash flow valuation approaches, relative valuation approaches and option pricing approaches.<br
/>The concepts and models taught are designed to be of practical benefit to attendees and are immediately usable in the workplace. This highly practical course will lead you quickly from the basics through the more advanced valuation methodologies and modeling techniques.<br
