Training Programmes

a. Generic Programme
The success of our training programmes over the past years has hinged on MIM’s adherence to general approach to training adults.  The carefully designed curriculum for 2008 will continue to center around action learning, so that our participants actually learn by doing or by observing their classmates performance.

All of the key management functions from planning to monitoring and evaluation will be performed under the continuing scrutiny of MIM faculty.

For the sake of efficiency and to address learning more specifically, tasks will sometimes be simulated or centered on hypothetical cases.  Often however, they will address real cases based on the participants’ own job or work programmes.

It is the practical, applied nature of MIM’s training that makes it so relevant and attractive to management practitioners.  Frequently, participants who have taken one of our generic courses come back to MIM to request that the same course be offered to their colleagues on an in-house basis so that the connection between class-room and job experience can be more direct.

The courses listed on the following pages constitute MIM’s generic programme for the year 2008.  You will be notified of new courses which will be developed during the year when they are ready.

b. In-House Courses
Another area of interest to MIM is in-house training (training a number of participants from one organization in response to particular needs of that institution).  This has an impact over and above that achieved through the generic training programme.

Experience has shown that in-house courses have more positive impact on organizations than generic ones since they are custom-made to fit specific requirements of the organization in question.  We, therefore, hope that you will come forward and ask for our services in this area of our activities.

In-house training will enhance the effectiveness of MIM’s I-D-I (Identity-Design-Implement) approach, facilitating an even closer fit between the problems identified in an organization and the solution designed to resolve those problems.
