Training Course on the Core Elements of a Small Project (Online / Remote)
1Summary
A small project gives young people and first-time investors the chance to build a scaled-down version of a much bigger idea, without needing major capital - while still contributing meaningfully to the wider economy, creating jobs, and generating a reasonable financial return.
Arab British Fellowship Training Academy offers this course to introduce participants to the core elements of a small project and how to manage them efficiently to achieve success, combined with a simulation exercise that lets participants apply the theory to a real small-project model.
