[edit] Introduction

The business advocacy funds in Kenya and Tanzania have developed a number of training courses, each comprising several sessions. For each session, there is a participant's handbook, intended to summarise the contents of a session and which can be distributed after a session has been completed; for each course a tutor's note and session plans, a set of case studies and exercises and a power point presentation.

Pages on the wiki provide the content of all of the participant's handbooks, the session plans and the case studies and exercises. You are encouraged to amend the existing pages and to add more pages as you develop new courses and new sessions.
