Understanding influences on monitoring and evaluation strategy
A consideration of internal and external influences which drive the project definition and the approach taken towards monitoring
and evaluation projects.

Developing a Business Case to support monitoring and evaluation
An in depth consideration as to what should be included in a business case to get approval for monitoring and evaluation projects.
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.

Developing a stakeholder management and communication strategy
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.

Effective requirements gathering for monitoring and evaluation
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.

Determining Critical Success Factors and Key Performance Indicators
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.

Modelling the current and future state
In order to effectively define and communicate the change that will be delivered, a range of models will be considered that help to
define the current situation and how this will be improved through the monitoring and evaluation project.

Scope and change management
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
evaluation project to fail. This session considers scope management techniques available to the practitioner, common causes of
change and a stable change control process that can be used to manage requests for change.

Identifying and delivering sustainable impacts
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.

Effectively leading a monitoring and evaluation project
Monitoring and evaluation projects require effective leadership. The fourth day starts with a consideration of the attributes of an
effective leader and leadership theories that can be applied in a practical way to improve project performance.

Managing a team through the monitoring and evaluation lifecycle
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.

Creating a learning culture within monitoring and evaluation
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.

Certified Budget Analyst - LEORON Professional Development Institute , Dubai, Accra, Baku, London, Almaty, Riyadh,Riyadh,Saudi Arabia,Khobar

Thu, 09 Feb 2017 17:50:37 +04

In our rapidly developing markets, the need for companies to react promptly to the changing environment is crucial. Historical accounting records are essential but are not enough for managers to make informed strategic operational and financial decisions. Management's pre-defined goals should be filtered down into budgets, forecasts and plans of action. Most of the mid-sized companies and almost the entire large corporates engage in some forms of budgeting, planning and forecasting.
However, many are characterized by being not dynamic or interactive which may negatively impact the decisions
made by top management. Making the right decision in such an atmosphere is easier when there is a clear view on what the future will bring. The future, however, may be predicted only from the moment when a good understanding of the past has been achieved; fast-changing business conditions call for agile planning, budgeting and forecasting.
This 5-days intensive event is targeting those responsible for the preparation of budgets, plans and forecasts and those
who are using them as well. The course will start with some exceptionally important advanced Excel tips that will be utilized during the course. All of these tips coming together will orchestrate professional models that are dynamic and interactive.
Very advanced tools like Monte Carlo simulation using Crystal Ball in Excel and PowerPivot (that is introduced recently in Excel) will be an inherent part of the program. When it comes to planning for the future in any organization, the biggest problem is how to account for uncertainty. Strictly (in financial terms), uncertainty is where there is more than one possible outcome to a course of action; the form of each possible outcome is known, but the probability of getting any one outcome is not known. It is a challenge to quantify uncertainty because it is on not an observable variable rather one that is deduced from others. However given a complete range of possible outcomes, one can make decisions that reduce this uncertainty. Monte Carlo simulation gives the power to solve a problem by directly simulating the underlying process and then calculating the possible results of the process with varying degrees of probability.
You will learn how to develop Power Pivots that can handle data of up to 200 million rows of data on a standard desktop or laptop computers knowing that normal pivot tables in Excel usually choke after about 30,000 rows of data or so. In addition, there are numerous other features in PowerPivot that will enrich the analysis of your data. For example, a powerpivot can read data from different ranges which is something a normal pivot table cannot accomplish. A professional case study will examine the interactions within a powerpivot example that will be a guide of something that can be implemented upon the completion of the course.
The course is very hands on and practical in nature. That is what the trainer has been renowned for in different countries around the world. Please bring your laptop with Excel 2010 or higher. Powerpivots don't work on Excel 2007.
