Developing New Programs: A Guide for Nonprofits and NGOs
Have you noticed that your existing programs are not completely meeting the needs of the individuals and families with whom you work? This brief training is designed to help you develop your own program, tailoring all program components to better serve your clients and amplify your mission.
In this training, you will learn all the steps needed to develop your program – from establishing the need for your new program and your rationale for why you believe it will work to identifying your program activities and how you will know whether it was successful.
