World: Diploma in Financial Sustainability of NGOs

Africa Center for Project Management (ACPM) in partnership with SCIM Institute, Netherlands are pleased to announce a Diploma in Fundamentals of NGO Financial Sustainability. The course is offered through Distance Learning. The course starts from 1st December 2015 to 31st May 2016

Course Overview

This course provides a meaningful, flexible source of tools to enable users to enhance the operational sustainability of their organizations in delivering vital health services to populations in need.

Sustainability is a measure of an organization's ability to fulfill its mission and serve its stakeholders over time.

Sustainability is a process, not an end. Sustainability involves all the elements and functions of an organization and every major decision made within the organization.

This course seeks to provide users with the fundamental tools required to enhance the sustainability of their organizations.

These tools can be tailored to fit the needs of various organizations, but they are effective only when the users are committed to the process of sustain- ability, begin the journey with an open mind, and remain willing to look hard at their organizations.

This commitment to the process must involve all levels of the organization, from the board of directors through senior management and the entire staff

Many factors influence sustainability, including the legal environment and national politics and policy, and other factors outside the control of individual health care organizations. This course takes a practical approach and focuses on factors that implementing organizations can control.
