The decisions that most affect a project are made before it is ever approved, when someone estimates the cost, tests the feasibility and writes the business case. This course builds the skill to do that work rigorously, so organisations back the right projects for the right reasons. It uses South African funding, appraisal and approval contexts across both commercial and public sector settings.
