For a majority of providers attracting project funding is part of daily life and, given the number of organisations bidding for such funds, the ability to plan and manage projects is vital.
Leading you through the project management stages from bidding for funding to exit planning and dissemination, this valuable guide offers insights into the importance of short-term projects and how to get the most out of them.
Packed with practical advice based on experience of running and managing projects in adult and community learning contexts, it is mindful of the need to be thorough and rigorous in the processes and procedures involved whilst allowing risks to be taken and creativity to be encouraged.
Covering the essential features of managing staff, information and funding as well as partnership planning, the guide includes useful tips, checklists and a glossary. Whether you are responsible for a discrete programme or part of a range of developmental activities this guide really is an invaluable tool.
