About this course
Organisations with good project cycle management (PCM) can effectively design, plan, implement and learn from their work. In turn, work that is well planned and incorporates learning is much more likely to be successful and lead to lasting change.
This course teaches what good project cycle management (PCM) looks like and gives practical tools and examples for applying PCM principles in each phase of the project cycle.
It follows the seven different phases in the project cycle:
- understanding the situation
- project design
- approval and governance
- preparation
- implementation and monitoring
- evaluation
- closing the project
This course is for people working for local grassroots organisations doing emergency relief and development work. It is useful for anyone working on a project. The principles in the guide can also be used by leaders as they manage and develop their organisation.
