The participants vary from different government agencies and their ranks range from technical staff to secretary-general. The two-week course started last 21 April 2008 and ended last 02 May 2008 at the NCPAG Assembly Hall.
The general objective of the course is to provide the participants with the knowledge, skills and attitude to be able to effectively and efficiently manage aid/ODA. A mix of interactive learning approaches was used in the delivery of the training course such as case studies, lecture-discussions, individual and group exercises, workshops/panel discussions, agency visits, learning diaries, and action planning. Of particular importance is the interaction with key Filipino executives and expatriates who are engaged and who have direct experiences in aid coordination and management.
