I look forward to hosting you for the training program. NB: Kindly take note of the change in dates *Public Policy Executive Programme* Overview While governments have successfully implemented management improvements over the past decade, many still struggle with the issue of successful policy making and implementation. Introduction Common problems include: - rushing to solutions without thorough analysis, - elegantly written policy documents without adequate implementation arrangements, - lack of integration of policy-making into annual and medium-term budgeting leading to inadequate funding for new policies, - lack of imagination in the choice of policy instruments and methods of implementation, - formal evaluation processes than have no impact on policy on the ground ------------------------------ *This 5-day course is designed to enable middle and senior-level officers in public, private and social sectors to participate effectively in the development of policies and implementation schemes that deliver results.* ------------------------------ Programme Objectives This programme aims to impart knowledge and enhance participants' understanding of how public policy is made including, how to design policy instruments, effective implementation schemes, monitoring and evaluation schemes and effective communication strategies for policy decisions. Target Participants Middle and senior level officers in the public, and social sector who are involved in the design or execution of public policy. The course is also relevant for private sector leaders who engage with the government as part of their job.
