Description:International NGOs play an increasingly important role in addressing the challenges and consequences of extreme poverty and humanitarian emergencies. NGO managers face complex management challenges – both at a personal and organisational level.
This brand new course has been developed in partnership with leading NGOs and BOND (the UK-NGO network) to develop and improve the management competencies and analytical capabilities of a new generation of NGO managers.
Running on a part-time modular basis, this is a complete development programme for managers who wish to gain a sound understanding of people, strategies and leadership in the context of international NGOs, and is unique in that it is one of the only management courses in Europe to focus on the needs of NGO managers.
The programme will deliver:
- a sound understanding of the issues facing NGOs and the impact and implications of the management and organisational challenges they face
- up-to-date skills and techniques to recognise strategic challenges and identify appropriate strategies to address them
-exposure to leading experts in the field as well as opportunity to network and study with peers from different but related backgrounds, bringing a deep and immediately relevant insight into NGO management
- recognition at the end of the course with a Postgraduate Diploma or MSc degree in NGO Management.
It is intended for individuals with established careers in NGOs as well as students with suitable experience who are looking to develop their knowledge and skills in NGO management. Applicants should be graduate-level or have the equivalent professional qualifications.
